High-pressure phase of : A new quasi-one-dimensional itinerant magnet with competing interactions
Abstract
We have synthesized the high-pressure form of CrSb 2 with CuAl 2-type structure under 7 GPa and 700 °C, and characterized its structural, transport, and magnetic properties by a suite of measurement techniques over a broad range of temperature, magnetic field, and pressure. In addition to previously reported ferromagnetic (FM) transition at T C≈160 K, we determine another antiferromagnetic spin-density-wave (SDW) transition at T s≈90 K, which is characterized by FM sheets of spins in the ab plane that vary along the c axis as determined by neutron powered diffraction. Pronounced anomalies around these two magnetic transitions are visible only in the lattice parameter c, signaling a strong spin-lattice coupling along the -Cr-Cr-Cr- infinite linear chain. We infer that the application of magnetic field can suppress the SDW phase and stabilize the FM state down to the lowest temperature above μ 0H c≈3 T, around which a peculiar non-Fermi-liquid behavior with reduced effective mass emerges. However, the application of high pressure induces complex evolution of the magnetic states, i.e., the FM order is lowered while the SDW order is enhanced quickly until they merge together into a single antiferromagnetic transition, which is suppressed completely at P c≈9 GPa.
