AI总结:

研究比较了超导PrNiO2与绝缘CaCuO2的磁自旋与轨道激发特性,发现两者在三维反铁磁序支持方面相似,但PrNiO2的平面磁交换积分较小,而垂直方向相近。轨道激发在单离子模型中表现良好,但Ni-dxy峰能量更低且反向色散,归因于最近邻轨道超交换耦合。

摘要:

无限层镍酸盐是最具前景的铜氧化物超导体之一,尽管与铜氧化物存在显著差异。本文通过化学未掺杂的超导PrNiO2的动量和极化分辨RIXS测量,将其磁性和轨道激发与参考无限层铜酸盐CaCuO2进行比较。在PrNiO2中,平面内磁交换积分小于CaCuO2,而垂直方向的值相似,表明两种材料均支持三维反铁磁序。与金属中3d态的跃迁相关的轨道激发可由单离子模型良好再现,特征相似,但Ni-dxy峰不仅能量显著较低,且色散方向与Cu-dxy相反。这被解释为最近邻轨道超交换耦合驱动轨道子传播的结果。我们的观察表明,尽管其显著不同的电荷转移能Delta,无限层铜酸盐和镍酸盐在自旋和轨道特性上大部分相似。

英文摘要:

Infinite-layer nickelates are among the most promising cuprate-akin superconductors, although relevant differences from copper oxides have been reported. Here, we present momentum- and polarization-resolved RIXS measurements on chemically undoped, superconducting PrNiO2, and compare its magnetic and orbital excitations with those of the reference infinite layer cuprate CaCuO2. In PrNiO2, the in-plane magnetic exchange integrals are smaller than in CaCuO2, whereas the out-of-plane values are similar, indicating that both materials support a three-dimensional antiferromagnetic order. Orbital excitations, associated to the transitions within 3d states of the metal, are well reproduced within a single-ion model and display similar characteristics, except for the Ni-dxy peak which, besides lying at significantly lower energy, shows an opposite dispersion to that of Cu-dxy. This is interpreted as a consequence of orbital superexchange coupling between nearest neighbor sites, which drives the orbiton propagation. Our observations demonstrate that infinite layer cuprates and nickelates share most of the spin and orbital properties, despite their markedly different charge-transfer energy Delta.
