Title: Tuning the Magnetic Exchange via a Control of Orbital Hybridization in ${Cr}_{2} ({Te}_{1 - x} W_{x}) O_{6}$

Abstract

Here, we report the complex magnetic phase diagram and electronic structure of Cr ₂ ( Te _1-xW _x) O ₆ systems. While compounds with different x values possess the same crystal structure, they display different magnetic structures below and above x _c = 0.7 , where both the transition temperature T _N and sublattice magnetization (M _s) reach a minimum. Unlike many known cases where magnetic interactions are controlled either by injection of charge carriers or by structural distortion induced via chemical doping, in the present case it is achieved by tuning the orbital hybridization between Cr 3d and O 2p orbitals through W 5d states. The result is supported by ab initio electronic structure calculations. Through this concept, we introduce a new approach to tune magnetic and electronic properties via chemical doping.

Evolution of magnetism in single-crystal $C a_{2} R u_{1 - x} I r_{x} O_{4} (0 \leq x \leq 0.65)$

Journal Article Yuan, S. J. ; Terzic, J. ; Wang, J. C. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

In this paper, we report structural, magnetic, transport, and thermal properties of single-crystal Ca ₂Ru _1-xIr _xO ₄(0≤x≤0.65). Ca ₂RuO ₄ is a structurally driven Mott insulator with a metal-insulator transition at T _MI=357K, which is well separated from antiferromagnetic order at T _N=110K. Substitution of a 5d element, Ir, for Ru enhances spin-orbit coupling and locking between the structural distortions and magnetic moment canting. Ir doping intensifies the distortion or rotation of Ru/IrO ₆ octahedra and induces weak ferromagnetic behavior along the c axis. In particular, Ir doping suppresses T _N but concurrently causes an additional magnetic ordering Tmore »« less

Frustrated Magnetism in Mott Insulating $(V_{1 - x} {Cr}_{x})_{2} O_{3}$

Journal Article Leiner, J. C. ; Jeschke, H. O. ; Valentí, R. ; ... - Physical Review. X

V ₂O ₃ famously features all four combinations of paramagnetic versus antiferromagnetic and metallic versus insulating states of matter in response to percent-level doping, pressure in the GPa range, and temperature below 300 K. Using time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations of magnetic interactions, we have mapped and analyzed the inelastic magnetic neutron scattering cross section over a wide range of energy and momentum transfer in the chromium-stabilized antiferromagnetic and paramagnetic insulating phases. Our results reveal an important magnetic frustration and degeneracy of the paramagnetic insulating phase which is relieved by the rhombohedral-to-monoclinic transition at T_N =more »« less

Complex magnetic properties in the mixed $4 f - 5 d$ double perovskite iridates $X_{2} {ZnIrO}_{6} (X = Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd)$

Journal Article Vogl, M. ; Morrow, R. ; Aczel, A. A. ; ... - Physical Review Materials

Here in this paper, we report on the synthesis and magnetic properties of a series of double perovskites Ln ₂ZnIrO ₆ with Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd. These compounds present examples of the rare case of double perovskites (general formula A ₂BB'O6) with a magnetic 4ƒ-ion on the A site in combination with the strongly spin-orbit coupled 5d transition-metal ion Ir ⁴⁺ on the B sublattice. We discuss the impact of different rare earths on the macroscopic magnetic properties. Gd ₂ZnIrO ₆ and Eu ₂ZnIrO ₆ show ferrimagnetic or canted antiferromagnetic order below T _N = 23 and 12more »« less

Structural and Magnetic Phase Transitions near Optimal Superconductivity in ${{BaFe}_{2} ({As}_{1 - x} P_{x})}_{2}$

Journal Article Hu, Ding ; Lu, Xingye ; Zhang, Wenliang ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We use nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), high-resolution x-ray, and neutron scattering studies to study structural and magnetic phase transitions in phosphorus-doped BaFe2(As1-xPx)(2). Previous transport, NMR, specific heat, and magnetic penetration depth measurements have provided compelling evidence for the presence of a quantum critical point (QCP) near optimal superconductivity at x = 0.3. However, we show that the tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural (T-s) and paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic (AF, T-N) transitions in BaFe2(As1-xPx)(2) are always coupled and approach T-N approximate to T-s >= T-c (approximate to 29 K) for x = 0.29 before vanishing abruptly for x >= 0.3. These results suggest that AFmore »« less

Lack of superconductivity in the phase diagram of single-crystalline $Eu {(F e_{1 - x} C o_{x})}_{2} A s_{2}$ grown by transition metal arsenide flux

Journal Article Wang, Gang ; Meier, William R. ; Straszheim, Warren E. ; ... - Physical Review Materials

Here, the interplay of magnetism and superconductivity (SC) has been a focus of interest in condensed matter physics for decades. EuFe ₂As ₂ has been identified as a potential platform to investigate interactions between structural, magnetic, and electronic effects as well as the coexistence of magnetism and SC with similar transition temperatures. However, there are obvious inconsistencies in the reported phase diagrams of Eu(Fe _1–xCo _x) ₂As ₂ crystals grown by different methods. For transition metal arsenide (TMA)-flux-grown crystals, even the existence of SC is uncertain. Here we reexamine the phase diagram of single-crystalline Eu(Fe _1–xCo _x) ₂As ₂ grownmore »« less
