摘要:

Cu_2OSeO_3是一种独特的具有Skyrmion自旋织构的绝缘多铁性化合物,其特征在于在常压下具有手性立方晶体结构。最近,有报道称,该化合物显示出压力诱导的结构转变与磁有序温度Tc的大幅度提高。在本研究中,我们研究了详细的晶体结构在高压相,结合同步辐射X射线衍射实验与金刚石压砧和基于遗传算法的分析。我们的研究结果表明,原来的烧绿石铜网络是持续的,即使在结构转变后,而SeO3分子的取向,以及在Cu四面体中间的氧的位置显着修改。后者的功能可能是关键的Tc和相关的skyrmion相在室温下的稳定性的报告增强。

英文摘要:

Cu2OSeO3 is known as a unique example of insulating multiferroic compounds with skyrmion spin texture, which is characterized by the chiral cubic crystal structure at ambient pressure. Recently, it has been reported that this compound shows pressure-induced structural transition with large enhancement of magnetic ordering temperature Tc. In the present study, we have investigated the detailed crystal structure in the high pressure phase, by combining the synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiment with the diamond anvil cell and the analysis based on the genetic algorithm. Our results suggest that the original pyrochlore Cu network is sustained even after the structural transition, while the orientation of SeO3 molecule as well as the position of oxygen in the middle of Cu tetrahedra are significantly modified. The latter features may be the key for the reported enhancement of Tc and associated stabilization of skyrmion phase at room temperature.
