摘要:

我们报告的结构和磁基态性能的单斜化合物钡铱氧化物Ba $_4$ Ir $_3$ O $_{10}$使用共振X射线散射,磁力计和热力学技术相结合。磁化率在$T_{\text{N}}$ $\approx$ 25 K处表现出明显的反铁磁转变,在$T_{\text{S}}$ $\approx$ 142 K处表现出较弱的反常,并且在所有温度下都表现出强的磁各向异性。共振弹性X射线散射实验揭示了在$T_{\text{S}}$处的二级结构相变和在$T_{\text{N}}$处的磁性相变。在$L$ =半整数值处观察到结构和磁性超晶格峰。在$T_{\text{S}}$的磁化异常意味着磁弹性耦合的存在,这可以想象促进对称性降低。在$T_{\text{S}}$上方观察到平均场临界散射。根据测得的磁超晶格峰强度讨论了反铁磁基态的磁结构。我们的研究不仅为理解Ba $_4$ Ir $_3$ O $_{10}$中相互交织的结构和磁性提供了必要的信息,而且还强调了探索八面体三聚体新基态的必要成分。

英文摘要:

We report the structural and magnetic ground state properties of the monoclinic compound barium iridium oxide Ba$_4$Ir$_3$O$_{10}$ using a combination of resonant x-ray scattering, magnetometry, and thermodynamic techniques. Magnetic susceptibility exhibits a pronounced antiferromagnetic transition at $T_{\text{N}}$ $\approx$ 25K, a weaker anomaly at $T_{\text{S}}$ $\approx$ 142K, and strong magnetic anisotropy at all temperatures. Resonant elastic x-ray scattering experiments reveal a second order structural phase transition at $T_{\text{S}}$ and a magnetic transition at $T_{\text{N}}$. Both structural and magnetic superlattice peaks are observed at $L$ = half integer values. The magnetization anomaly at $T_{\text{S}}$ implies the presence of magneto-elastic coupling, which conceivably facilitates the symmetry lowering. Mean field critical scattering is observed above $T_{\text{S}}$. The magnetic structure of the antiferromagnetic ground state is discussed based on the measured magnetic superlattice peak intensity. Our study not only presents essential information for understanding the intertwined structural and magnetic properties in Ba$_4$Ir$_3$O$_{10}$, but also highlights the necessary ingredients for exploring novel ground states with octahedra trimers.
