Reentrant valence transition in EuO at high pressures : beyond the bond-valence model

Journal Article Souza-Neto, N M ; Zhao, J ; Alp, E ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The pressure-dependent relation between Eu valence and lattice structure in model compound EuO is studied with synchrotron-based x-ray spectroscopic and diffraction techniques. Contrary to expectation, a 7% volume collapse at {approx}45 GPa is accompanied by a reentrant Eu valence transition into a lower valence state. In addition to highlighting the need for probing both structure and electronic states directly when valence information is sought in mixed-valent systems, the results also show that widely used bond-valence methods fail to quantitatively describe the complex electronic valence behavior of EuO under pressure.

Onset of valence and magnetic instabilities in the ferromagnetic semiconductor EuO at high pressures

Journal Article Abd-Elmeguid, M M ; Taylor, R D - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

Hydrostatic high-pressure {sup 151}Eu Moessbauer measurements (0{le}{ital p}{le}31 GPa) on the ferromagnetic semiconductor EuO reveal, contrary to previous suggestions, no pronounced valence change of Eu (Eu{sup 2+}{r arrow}Eu{sup 3+}) even at highest pressures ({ital p}=31 GPa). The magnetic ground state becomes unstable above 23 GPa, where the pressure-induced variation of the Curie temperature is consistent with theoretical predictions based on the volume-dependent competition between {ital sf}-exchange interactions and {ital sf} hybridization.

Single crystal X-ray diffraction study of a mixed-valence gold compound, Cs{sub 2}Au{sup I}Au{sup III}Cl{sub 6} under high pressures up to 18 GPa: Pressure-induced phase transition coupled with gold valence transition

Journal Article Matsushita, Nobuyuki ; Department of Basic Science, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, University of Tokyo, Komaba, Meguro-ku, Tokyo 153-8902 ; Ahsbahs, Hans ; ... - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

We performed the single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of a perovskite-type gold mixed-valence compound, Cs{sub 2}Au{sup I}Au{sup III}Cl{sub 6}, under high pressures up to 18 GPa by using a diamond-anvil-cell with helium gas as an ideal hydrostatic pressure-transmitting medium. The lattice parameters and the variable atomic positional parameters were obtained with reasonable accuracy at various pressures. A structural phase transition at ca. 12.5 GPa from I4/mmm to Pm3m was found. The lattice parameters a {sub 0} and c {sub 0}, denoted in the tetragonal cell setting, result in the relationship 2{sup 1/2} a {sub 0}=c {sub 0}, and the superstructure reflectionsmore »« less

Valence-Bond-Solid Phases and Quantum Phase Transitions in Two-Dimensional Spin Models with Four-Site Interactions

Conference Sandvik, A. W. ; Melko, Roger G ; Scalapino, D. J.

We discuss zero-temperature phase transititions from an antiferromagnetic ground state into a valence-bond-solid (VBS) in two different square-lattice quantum spin models. In one limit these models reduce to the standard S = 1/2 XY and Heisenberg models, respectively, which have long-range antiferromagnetic order at T = 0. Introducing particular types of four-spin interactions, amenable to quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulation without negative-sign problems, drives phase transitions into VBS states with broken Z4 symmetry. It has recently been argued that continuous quantum phase transitions of this nature represent a new class of deconfined quantum-critical points, which are not captured within themore »« less
