摘要:

我们研究了不同压力下的结构、磁性、振动和光学带隙特性。通过将第一性原理计算与实验技术(包括拉曼光谱、光致发光(PL)、单轴压力研究(热膨胀)和磁化测量)相结合,我们揭示了Fe掺杂CrCl3中复杂的压力诱导转变,阐明了其结构、电子和磁演化。常压下,拉曼光谱证实了所有预期的拉曼活性模式,这些模式随压力增加而蓝移。PL测量显示~0.6 GPa时光学带隙为1.48 eV,压力下带隙逐渐增大,6 GPa以上因等结构相变而转变变慢。压力下的磁化结果显示常压下存在两种竞争磁成分(铁磁(FM)和反铁磁(AFM)),在最低温度和外场下FM成分占主导。热膨胀的Grueneisen分析证实了竞争的FM和AFM能量尺度的存在,并确定了其单轴压力依赖性。实验结果与基于密度泛函理论(DFT)的理论结果一致。实验中观察到压力增强的铁磁层间耦合,随后因直接层间相互作用减弱而稳定反铁磁有序;1.2 GPa以上实验中磁的FM成分消失,这也与DFT理论吻合良好。本文报道的发现强调了CrCl3在压力可调磁性和光电子应用中的潜力,例如FM和AFM构型间的微妙平衡可能用于传感器应用。

英文摘要:

We explore the structural, magnetic, vibrational and optical band gap properties under varying pressures. By integrating first-principles calculations with experimental techniques, including Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL), uniaxial pressure studies (thermal expansion), and magnetization measurements, we unveil the intricate pressure-induced transformations in Fe-doped CrCl3, shedding light on its structural, electronic, and magnetic evolution. At ambient pressure, Raman spectra confirm all expected Raman-active modes, which exhibit blue shifts with increasing pressure. The PL measurements demonstrate an optical bandgap of 1.48 eV at ~0.6 GPa, with a progressive increase in the bandgap under pressure, transitioning slower above 6 GPa due to an isostructural phase transition. Magnetization results under pressure shows two competing magnetic components (FM and AFM) at ambient conditions, where at the lowest temperature and applied field, the FM component dominates. The presence of competing FM and AFM energy scales is confirmed by Grueneisen analysis of the thermal expansion and their uniaxial pressure dependence is determined. The experimental findings agree with theoretical results based on Density functional theory (DFT). In the experiments, we observe a pressure-enhanced ferromagnetic interlayer coupling that is followed by the stabilization of antiferromagnetic ordering, due to weakened direct interlayer interactions. Above 1.2 GPa the FM component of the magnetism is gone in the experimental observations, which is also in good agreement with DFT based theory. The findings reported here underscore the potential of CrCl3 for use in pressure-tunable magnetic and optoelectronic applications, where, e.g., the delicate balance between FM and AFM configurations could have potential for sensor applications.
