摘要:

层状钙钛矿结构的YBaCuFeO 5(YBCFO)被认为是具有强磁电耦合的高温手征多铁性材料的最佳候选材料之一。在RBaCuFeO 5钙钛矿(R:稀土或Y)A位阳离子是完全有序的,而它们的磁性强烈依赖于制备过程。它们在B-位点表现出部分阳离子无序,产生通过倾斜的局部受抑自旋之间的定向辅助长程耦合稳定的磁螺旋。此外,其磁性螺旋的取向对于这种手性磁性氧化物的磁电响应可能是关键的。我们合成并研究了掺杂Mn的YBaCuFe 1-xMnxO 5样品,目的是增加自旋轨道耦合效应,并发现在不改变样品制备工艺的情况下,通过掺杂可以增加B位的整体Fe/Cu阳离子无序。在相同条件下制备的YBaCuFe_(1-x)Mn_xO_5样品中,结合磁强计、X射线衍射和中子粉末衍射测量,绘制了10 K-500 K范围内的T-x磁相图。在共线相位θcol和螺旋相位θspiral中,自旋的倾斜角几乎不随温度变化。在共线相中,θcol也与Mn含量无关。与此相反,Mn的存在下产生一个渐进的重取向的平面中的磁螺旋的无公度相,能够转换成摆线的螺旋自旋排序,这可能会决定在这些化合物的铁电和磁电行为。其中一些观察结果对于工程和开发这一系列潜在的高温多铁性材料很有意义。

英文摘要:

The layered perovskite YBaCuFeO5 (YBCFO) is considered one of the best candidates to high-temperature chiral multiferroics with strong magnetoelectric coupling. In RBaCuFeO5 perovskites (R: rare-earth or Y) A-site cations are fully ordered whereas their magnetic properties strongly depend on the preparation process. They exhibit partial cationic disorder at the B-site that generates a magnetic spiral stabilized through directionally assisted long range coupling between canted locally frustrated spins. Moreover the orientation of its magnetic spiral can be critical for the magnetoelectric response of this chiral magnetic oxide. We have synthesized and studied YBaCuFe1-xMnxO5 samples doped with Mn, with the aim of increasing spin-orbit coupling effects, and found that the overall Fe/Cu cation disorder at the B-sites can be increased by doping without changing the sample preparation process. In YBaCuFe1-xMnxO5 samples prepared under the same conditions, the T-x magnetic phase diagram have been constructed in the range 10K-500K combining magnetometry, X-ray and neutron powder diffraction measurements. The tilting angles of the spins in the collinear, θcol , and spiral phases, θspiral, barely vary with temperature. In the collinear phase θcol is also independent of the Mn content. In contrast, the presence of Mn produces a progressive reorientation of the plane of the magnetic helix in the incommensurate phase, capable to transform the helicoidal spin ordering into a cycloidal one, which may critically determine the ferroelectric and magnetoelectric behavior in these compounds. Some of the observations are of interest for engineering and developing this family of potential high-temperature multiferroics.
