各向异性三角晶格系统CeCd3As3的长程磁序

Long-range magnetic order in the anisotropic triangular lattice system CeCd3As3

摘要:

我们报道了$R$ Cd $_{3}$ As $_{3}$($R$ = La和Ce)化合物的物理性质,该化合物结晶为六方ScAl $_{3}$ C $_{3}$型结构($P$ 6 $_{3}$ /mmc),使得$R$亚晶格形成自旋-轨道耦合三角晶格。磁化率测量表明Ce $^{3+}$离子的4个$f$电子具有很好的局域性,并显示出很大的磁各向异性。$R$ Cd $_{3}$ As $_{3}$的电阻率和比热测量在高温下表现出异常(对于$R$ = La,$T_{0}$ $\sim$ 63 K;对于$R$ = Ce,$T_{0}$ $\sim$ 136 K),这很可能是由于结构转变。CeCd $_{3}$的比热测量结果清楚地表明,在低于$T_{N}$ = 0.42 K的温度下,CeCd $_{3}$具有长程磁序.虽然磁贡献的比热$C_{m}/T$显著增加低于$\sim$ 10 K,电阻率为CeCd $_{3}$作为$_{3}$如下典型的,金属行为与近藤晶格系统不一致。在CeCd $_3$ As $_3$中,只有$R \ln(2)$磁熵的$\sim$ 40 $\%$被$T_N$恢复,并且在大约居里-外斯温度$|θ_{p}|$处完全达到$R$ ln(2)熵。不同寻常的是,根据我们目前的研究,低于$|θ_{p}|$的磁比热不是归因于近藤贡献,而是与三角晶格上的磁有序和挫折。在外加磁场中的比热测量表明,$H \parallel c$的$T_{N}$的变化可以忽略不计,而$H \parallel ab$在40 kOe以上观察到$T_{N}$的抑制。这种行为与在$ab$平面内施加磁场打破三角对称性并部分缓解该系统中的磁阻挫一致。

英文摘要:

We report the physical properties of $R$Cd$_{3}$As$_{3}$ ($R$ = La and Ce) compounds, crystallized into a hexagonal ScAl$_{3}$C$_{3}$-type structure ($P$6$_{3}$/mmc) such that the $R$ sublattice forms a spin-orbit coupled triangular lattice. Magnetic susceptibility measurements indicate the 4$f$ electrons of Ce$^{3+}$ ions are well localized and reveal a large magnetic anisotropy. The electrical resistivity and specific heat measurement for $R$Cd$_{3}$As$_{3}$ exhibit an anomaly at high temperatures ($T_{0}$ $\sim$ 63 K for $R$ = La and $T_{0}$ $\sim$ 136 K for $R$ = Ce), most likely due to a structural transition. Specific heat measurements for CeCd$_{3}$As$_{3}$ clearly indicate a long range magnetic order below $T_{N}$ = 0.42 K. Although the magnetic contribution to the specific heat $C_{m}/T$ increases significantly below $\sim$ 10 K, the electrical resistivity for CeCd$_{3}$As$_{3}$ follows typical, metallic behavior inconsistent with Kondo lattice systems. In CeCd$_3$As$_3$ only $\sim$ 40 $\%$ of the $R \ln(2)$ magnetic entropy is recovered by $T_N$ and the $R$ln(2) entropy is fully achieved at about the Curie-Weiss temperature $|θ_{p}|$. Unusually, based on our current investigations, the magnetic specific heat below $|θ_{p}|$ is not attributed to a Kondo contribution, but rather associated with the magnetic ordering and frustration on the triangular lattice. Specific heat measurements in applied magnetic field show a negligible variation of $T_{N}$ for $H \parallel c$, whereas a suppression of $T_{N}$ is observed above 40 kOe for $H \parallel ab$. Such behavior is consistent with the application a magnetic field within the $ab$-plane breaking the triangular symmetry and partially relieving the magnetic frustration in this system.
