Mn3Zn0.8Ni0.2N的高压同步辐射研究

 利用金刚石对顶压砧,对钙钛矿型金属锰化物Mn₃Zn_0.8Ni_0.2N进行了原位高压同步辐射角散X射线衍射研究。研究表明,在0~29.9 GPa的压力区间内,样品没有发生结构相变,因而在该压力下样品的物性变化并非由结构相变所导致。卸压以后,样品的特征峰都回到了初始位置。通过Birch-Murnaghan方程,拟合得到了样品的体弹模量为86.5 GPa。     

Room-Temperature Magnetism Realized by Doping Fe into Ferroelectric LiTaO3

We synthesize LiTal-x FexO3-σ （LTFO） remain single phase up to x = 0.09 ceramics by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The samples The magnetic measurements show that the doping of Fe successfully realizes ferromagnetism of LTFO at room temperature. The dielectric measurements indicate that LTFO is ferroelectric, similarly to LiTaO3 （LTO）, but its ferroelectric Curie temperature seems to decrease with the increasing Fe content. By means of doping Fe ions into LTO, the coexistence of spontaneous electric polarization and spontaneous magnetic moment is realized at room temperature.

Structural Stability of CaCuMn6O12 under High Pressure and Low Temperature

In situ high pressure energy-dispersive x-ray synchrotron radiation diffraction and resistance experiments are carried out on CaCuMn6O12. Its crystal structure is stable in the measured pressure range. The equation of state of CaCuMn6O12 is obtained from the V/Vo - P relationship （V and Vo are the volumes at pressure P and at atmosphere）. The bulk modulus Bo is calculated based on the Birch-Murnaghan equation. Low temperature x-ray diffraction shows no phase transition occurring down to 160K.

Formation of unusual Cr~(5+) charge state in CaCr_(0.5)Fe_(0.5)O_3 perovskite

A new oxide CaCr_(0.5)Fe_(0.5)O_3 was prepared under high pressure and temperature conditions. It crystallizes in a B-site disordered Pbnm perovskite structure. The charge combination is determined to be Cr~(5+)/Fe~(3+) with the presence of unusual Cr~(5+) state in octahedral coordination, although Cr~(4+) and Fe~(4+) occur in the related perovskites CaCrO_3 and CaFeO_3.The randomly distributed Cr~(5+) and Fe~(3+) spins lead to short-range ferromagnetic coupling, whereas an antiferromagnetic phase transition takes place near 50 K due to the Fe~(3+)–O–Fe~(3+) interaction. In spite of the B-site Cr~(5+)/Fe~(3+) disorder,the compound exhibits electrical insulating behavior. First-principles calculations further demonstrate the formation of CaCr_(0.5)~(5+)Fe_(0.5)~(3+)O_3 charge combination, and the electron correlation effect of Fe~(3+) plays an important role for the insulting ground state. CaCr_(0.5)Fe_(0.5)O_3 provides the first Cr~(5+) perovskite system with octahedral coordination, opening a new avenue to explore novel transition-metal oxides with exotic charge states.     

Studies on the superconductivity for the “111” type iron arsenide superconductor

The “111” type Li _x FeAs (x ranges from 0.8 to 1.2) with Cu₂Sb type tetragonal structure was synthesized with T _c 18 K. The isostructure NaFeAs was further studied, which shows superconductivity with T _c up to 26 K. The effect of pressure on superconductivity was investigated.     

Misfit-layered compound PbTiS3 with incommensurate modulation： Transmission electron microscopy analysis and transport properties

The microstructural characteristic of the misfit-layered compound PbTiS3 has been studied with transmission electron microscopy. All the incommensurate modulation-induced satellite spots and main diffraction spots of basic sublattices can be indexed systematically with a superspace group method. Finally, the relationship between the electronic transport properties and the crystal structure is discussed.     

Superconductivity in Topological Semimetal θ-TaN at High Pressure

Recently,θ-TaN was proposed to be a topological semimetal with a new type of triply degenerate nodal points.Here,we report studies of pressure dependence of transport,Raman spectroscopy and synchrotron x-ray diffraction on θ-TaN up to 61 GPa.We find that θ-TaN becomes superconductive above 24.6 GPa with T_c at 3.1 K.The θ-TaN is of n-type carrier nature with carrier density about 1.1 × 10~(20)/cm~3 at 1.2 GPa and 20 K, while the carrier density increases with the pressure and saturates at about 40 GPa in the measured range.However,there is no crystal structure transition with pressure up to 39 GPa,suggesting the topological nature of the pressure induced superconductivity.
