摘要:

在模型一维(1D)相关系统中进行光谱测量,为理解其二维对应物提供了见解,包括铜酸盐和铁基/硫化物超导体。主要挑战是识别具有主导1D物理的此类相关系统。在本工作中,对NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As单晶进行非弹性中子散射测量,直接揭示了准一维自旋激发,这些激发源于原子有序导致的磁性Fe和非磁性Cu链。主导的交换相互作用是沿着链的反铁磁性(SJ$_{\rm \parallel}$≈90.1(3)~meV),而链间耦合则要弱得多(SJ$_{\rm \perp}$≈-2.4(1)~meV和SJ$_{\rm c}$≈0.15(5)~meV)。NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As中的准一维自旋激发源于Néel和条纹向量,其中Néel激发对Cu位上的Fe杂质敏感。准一维NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As和准二维FeSe中的自旋激发表现出惊人的相似性,表明它们共存的条纹和Néel激发有共同的起源。我们的发现表明,磁性稀释在NaFeAs中导致其磁性自由度的维度减少,提供了一种发现低维量子材料的策略。

英文摘要:

Spectroscopic measurements in model one-dimensional (1D) correlated systems offer insights for understanding their two-dimensional counterparts, which include the cuprate and iron pnictide/chalcogenide superconductors. A major challenge is the identification of such correlated systems with dominantly 1D physics. In this work, inelastic neutron scattering measurements on NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As single crystal directly reveal quasi-1D spin excitations, resulting from atomic order that lead to magnetic Fe and nonmagnetic Cu chains. The dominant exchange interaction is antiferromagnetic along the chain ($SJ_{\rm \parallel}\approx90.1(3)$~meV), whereas the inter-chain couplings are much weaker ($SJ_{\rm \perp}\approx-2.4(1)$~meV and $SJ_{\rm c}\approx0.15(5)$~meV). The quasi-1D spin excitations in NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As stem from both the Néel and stripe vectors, with Néel excitations sensitive to Fe impurities on the Cu site. The spin excitations in quasi-1D NaFe$_{0.53}$Cu$_{0.47}$As and quasi-2D FeSe exhibit a striking resemblance, suggesting a common origin for their coexistent stripe and Néel excitations. Our findings demonstrate magnetic dilution in NaFeAs leads to dimension reduction of its magnetic degree of freedom, presenting a strategy for discovering low-dimensional quantum materials.
