AI中文摘要:

非共线磁体是源于零自旋轨道耦合极限的非常规自旋劈裂磁体,其拥有磁多极序参数,但这些多极子的直接实空间观测一直难以实现。本研究利用极化中子衍射重构了原型非共线磁体MnF₂的三维磁化密度,通过利用对称性选择的磁反射,将主导的Mn²⁺球形贡献与弱得多的Mn各向异性磁化以及氟配体的共价自旋极化分离开来。重构的自旋密度显示出有限的氟离子磁矩,以及与对称性允许的非共线磁体5阶磁多极子O₅₂(磁三十极子)一致的Mn各向异性磁化。这些结果为非共线磁体中的铁性多极序提供了直接实空间证据,并确立极化中子衍射是探测量子材料中隐藏磁多极子的有力工具。

英文摘要:

Altermagnets are unconventional spin split magnets arising from the zero spin-orbit coupled limit. They host a magnetic multipolar order parameter yet direct real-space observation of these multipoles has remained elusive. Here we use polarized-neutron diffraction to reconstruct the three-dimensional magnetization density of the prototypical altermagnet MnF$_2$. By exploiting symmetry-selective magnetic reflections, we separate the dominant spherical Mn$^{2+}$ contribution from the much weaker anisotropic Mn magnetization and the covalent spin polarization of the fluorine ligands. The reconstructed spin density reveals a finite fluorine ion moment together with an anisotropic Mn magnetization consistent with the symmetry-allowed altermagnetic rank-5 magnetic multipole $O_{52}$(magnetic triacontadipole). These results provide direct real-space evidence of ferroic multipolar order in an altermagnet and establish polarized-neutron diffraction as a powerful probe of hidden magnetic multipoles in quantum materials.
