讨论了可能与Ba $_2$ NiO $_2$(AgSe)$_2$(BNOAS)等镍酸盐有关的正方晶格上高自旋/低自旋双轨道双电子竞争模型的热力学和磁学性质.我们专注于高自旋($S=1$)和低自旋($S=0$)状态的参数制度是积极接近彼此,并讨论在这样的系统中的各种交换过程。我们所研究的模型是Jin等人(H. S. Jin,W. E.皮克特和K。W. Lee,Phys. Rev. Research 2,033197(2020))。虽然这两个模型在基态相位和对称性方面有相似之处,但不同相位和相变的详细性质是完全不同的,从实验的角度来看应该很容易区分。
英文摘要:
We discuss the thermodynamic and magnetic properties of a competing high-spin/low-spin two-orbital two-electron model on a square-lattice possibly relevant to the nickelates such as Ba$_2$NiO$_2$(AgSe)$_2$ (BNOAS). We focus on parameter regimes where a high-spin ($S=1$) and a low-spin ($S=0$) state are energetically close to each other and discuss various exchange processes in such a system. The model we study is a variant of, but different from the Kondo-necklace model proposed for the system by Jin et al (H. S. Jin, W. E. Pickett and K. W. Lee, Phys. Rev. Research 2, 033197 (2020)). Although there are similarities between the two models in terms of the ground-state phases and their symmetries, the detailed properties of the different phases and the phase transitions are entirely different and should be easy to distinguish from an experimental point of view.

Intrinsic magnetism in superconducting infinite-layer nickelates
Nd $_{0.8}$ Sr $_{0.2}$ NiO $_2$ [1]中超导性的发现引入了一个新的层状镍酸盐超导体家族,该家族现在已经扩展到包括一系列Sr掺杂[2,3]、Pr或La代替Nd [4-6]以及5层Nd $_6$ Ni $_5$ O $_{12}$ [7]。许多研究表明,这些材料中的电子相关性很强[8-14],因此一个中心问题是这些相互作用是否会导致磁性。在这里,我们报告的一系列超导无限层镍酸盐的μ子自旋旋转/弛豫研究。在所有的情况下,我们观察到一个内在的磁性基态,无论稀土离子或掺杂,所产生的局部时刻的镍亚晶格。磁性(可能是反铁磁和短程有序的)与超导性的共存让人想起一些铁磷属元素化物[15]和重费米子化合物[16],并且与掺杂的铜酸盐[17]在性质上不同。

Short-range magnetic interactions and spin-glass behavior in the quasi-2D nickelate Pr4Ni3O8
镍酸盐Pr 4 Ni 3 O 8具有由三个堆叠的正方形平面NiO 2平面组成的准二维层,以类似于众所周知的铜酸盐超导体的方式。镍的混合价性质及其金属性质使其成为潜在的非传统超导体的候选者。本文报道了Pr_4Ni_3O_(10)在10%氢气中的拓扑还原反应合成Pr_4Ni_3O_(18),并测量了粉末中子衍射、磁化强度和μ子自旋转动(uSR)。结果表明,Pr 4 Ni 3 O 8在2 ~ 300 K温度范围内表现出复杂的自旋玻璃行为,并具有明显的磁记忆效应,其凝固温度Ts ~ 68 K。此外,uSR谱的分析表明,两个磁过程的特征在于显着不同的弛豫速率:缓慢弛豫信号,从顺磁波动的Pr/Ni离子,和快速弛豫信号,其弛豫速率大幅增加低于70 K,这可以归因于存在的短程相关区域。我们的结论是复杂的自旋冻结过程Pr 4 Ni 3 O 8是由这些多个磁相互作用。Pr_4Ni_3O_8的复合磁性可能不利于超导电性的发生。
