Abstract

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) is an intriguing physical phenomenon that can be used in the applications of thermal expansion adjustment of materials. In this study, we report a NTE compound of (Hf,Ti)Fe₂, while both end members of HfFe₂ and TiFe₂ show positive thermal expansion. The results reveal that phase coexistence is detected in the whole NTE zone, in which one phase is ferromagnetic (FM), while the other is antiferromagnetic (AFM). With increasing temperature, the FM phase is gradually transformed to the AFM one. The NTE phenomenon occurs in the present (Hf,Ti)Fe₂ because of the fact that the unit cell volume of the AFM phase is smaller than that of the FM phase, and the mass fraction of the AFM phase increases with increasing temperature. The construction of phase coexistence can be a method to achieve NTE materials in future studies.

Coexistence of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic clusters in compositionally modulated amorphous Fe[sub x]Zr (66 < x [le] 85) thin films

Conference Cho, B I ; Win, W ; Manthiram, A ; ... - IEEE Transactions on Magnetics (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers); (United States)

Previous research has shown that different magnetic (antiferromagnetic AFM and ferromagnetic FM) clusters can coexist in amorphous Fe[sub x]Zr[sup 100[minus]x] alloys with compositions in the range 88 [le] x [le] 93. This research shows that in compositionally modulated (CM) amorphous thin films, this range can be extended to x = 66. Three coexisting states (one AFM and two different FM states) are observed in CM films in the range 66 [le] x [le] 85. With increasing Fe, the Curie temperature T[sub c1] of the ferromagnetic matrix phase FM[sub 1] increased from 134 K to 273 K. The existence of FM[submore »« less
Ultrafast optical pump-probe spectroscopy is used to reveal the coexistence of coupled antiferromagnetic (AFM)/ferroelectric (FE) and ferromagnetic (FM) orders in multiferroic TbMnO3 films, which can guide researchers in creating new kinds of multiferroic materials.

Conference Qi, Jingbo ; Zhu, Jianxin ; Trugman, Stuart A ; ...

Multiferroic materials have attracted much interest in the past decade, due not only to their novel device applications, but also their manifestations of coupling and interactions between different order parameters (particularly electric polarization and magnetic order). Recently, much attention has been focused on perovskite manganites, RMnO{sub 3} (R = rare earth ions), due to the discovery of a large magnetoelectric effect in these materials. The first member of this family to be discovered was TbMnO{sub 3} (TMO), which is now well established as a typical magnetoelectric multiferroic. Extensive experimental and theoretical studies have already been done on single crystal TMOmore »« less

Negative thermal expansion in cubic FeFe(CN)₆ Prussian blue analogues

Journal Article Shi, Naike ; Gao, Qilong ; Sanson, Andrea ; ... - Dalton Transactions

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) behavior is an interesting physical phenomenon, but the number of NTE materials is limited. In this study, a new NTE compound has been found, FeFe(CN)₆ Prussian blue analogue, where the average linear coefficient of thermal expansion (α_l) is –4.260 × 10^–6 K^–1 between 100 and 450 K. The NTE properties and local vibration dynamics have been investigated by joint experiments of synchrotron X-ray diffraction, X-ray pair distribution function, and extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. It has been observed that the Fe–C/Fe–N bonds expand with increasing temperature, while the unit cell shrinks in FeFe(CN)₆. The vibrationmore »« less

Collapse of ferromagnetism in itinerant-electron system: A magnetic, transport properties, and high pressure study of (Hf,Ta)Fe{sub 2} compounds

Journal Article Diop, L. V. B., ; Isnard, O. ; CNRS, Inst NEEL, F-38042 Grenoble ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

The magnetism and transport properties were studied for Laves (Hf,Ta)Fe{sub 2} itinerant-electron compounds, which exhibit a temperature-induced first-order transition from the ferromagnetic (FM) to the antiferromagnetic (AFM) state upon heating. At finite temperatures, the field-induced metamagnetic phase transition between the AFM and FM has considerable effects on the transport properties of these model metamagnetic compounds. A large negative magnetoresistance of about 14% is observed in accordance with the metamagnetic transition. The magnetic phase diagram is determined for the Laves Hf{sub 1−x}Ta{sub x}Fe{sub 2} series and its Ta concentration dependence discussed. An unusual behavior is revealed in the paramagnetic state ofmore »« less

Composition, response to pressure, and negative thermal expansion in M^IIB^IVF₆ (M = Ca, Mg; B = Zr, Nb) [Composition, response to pressure, and negative thermal expansion in A^IIB^IVF₆; A - Ca, Mg, B - Zr, Nb]

Journal Article Hester, Brett R. ; Hancock, Justin C. ; Lapidus, Saul H. ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

CaZrF₆ has recently been shown to combine strong negative thermal expansion (NTE) over a very wide temperature range (at least 10–1000 K) with optical transparency from mid-IR into the UV range. Variable-temperature and high-pressure diffraction has been used to determine how the replacement of calcium by magnesium and zirconium by niobium(IV) modifies the phase behavior and physical properties of the compound. Similar to CaZrF₆, CaNbF₆ retains a cubic ReO₃-type structure down to 10 K and displays NTE up until at least 900 K. It undergoes a reconstructive phase transition upon compression to ~400 MPa at room temperature and pressure-induced amorphization above ~4 GPa. Prior to the first transition, it displays very strong pressure-induced softening. MgZrF₆ adopts a cubic (Fmmore » $$\bar{3}$$m) structure at 300 K and undergoes a symmetry-lowering phase transition involving octahedral tilts at ~100 K. Immediately above this transition, it shows modest NTE. Its’ thermal expansion increases upon heating, crossing through zero at ~500 K. Unlike CaZrF₆ and CaNbF₆, it undergoes an octahedral tilting transition upon compression (~370 MPa) prior to a reconstructive transition at ~1 GPa. Cubic MgZrF₆ displays both pressure-induced softening and stiffening upon heating. MgNbF₆ is cubic (Fm$$\bar{3}$$m) at room temperature, but it undergoes a symmetry-lowering octahedral tilting transition at ~280 K. It does not display NTE within the investigated temperature range (100–950 K). Furthermore the replacement of Zr(IV) by Nb(IV) leads to minor changes in phase behavior and properties, the replacement of the calcium by the smaller and more polarizing magnesium leads to large changes in both phase behavior and thermal expansion.« less
