Quantum critical behavior in an antiferromagnetic heavy-fermion Kondo lattice system(Ce_(1-x)La_x)_2Ir_3Ge_5

The measurements on temperature dependences of magnetic susceptibility χ(T), specific heat C(T), and electrical resistivity ρ(T) were carried out for the antiferromagnetic(AFM)(Ce_(1-x)La_x)_2Ir_3Ge_5(0 ≤ x ≤ 0.66) system. It was found that the Neel temperature TNdecreases with increasing La content x, and reaches 0 K near a critical content xcr =0.6. A new phase diagram was constructed based on these measurements. A non-Fermi liquid behavior in ρ(T) and a log T relationship in C(T) were found in the samples near xcr, indicating them to be near an AFM quantum critical point(QCP) with strong spin fluctuation. Our finding indicates that(Ce_(1-x)La_x)_2Ir_3Ge_5 may be a new platform to search for unconventional superconductivity.     

铁基超导体的量子临界行为

铁基超导体呈现丰富的电子相图, 各种有序态相互交叠. 本文主要介绍利用核磁共振手段在空穴型和电子型掺杂的BaFe₂As₂以及LaFeAsO_1-xF_x这三种具有代表性的铁基超导体中探测到的反铁磁序与超导序的微观共存、量子临界点和量子临界行为. 实验发现, 无论在空穴型还是电子型掺杂的铁基超导体中, 反铁磁相变温度都随着掺杂被抑制, 并最终在某个掺杂量降到零温而形成量子临界点. 在反铁磁转变温度之上存在结构相变, 其转变温度也随着掺杂而降低. 核磁共振谱证实结构相变也形成一个量子临界点. 本文介绍核磁共振及输运测量揭示的这两种量子临界点附近存在的量子临界行为, 共存态下奇异的超导性质等.     

准一维Cr基超导体RbCr3As3的超导能隙

RbCr₃As₃是具有[（Cr₃As₃）^-]_∞线性链的准一维超导体,超导转变温度约为6.6 K.对RbCr₃As₃单晶进行了电输运和极低温热输运性质的研究.低温下,拟合了RbCr₃As₃正常态电阻率随温度的变化,发现其满足费米液体行为.通过拟合超导转变温度随磁场的关系,得到RbCr₃As₃单晶的上临界场约为25.6 T.对RbCr₃As₃进行了零场下的极低温热导率测量,得到其剩余线性项为7.5 μW·K^-2·cm^-1,占正常态热导率值的24%.测量不同磁场下RbCr₃As₃的热导率,发现与单带s波超导体相比较,RbCr₃As₃剩余线性项随磁场增加相对较快.这些结果表明RbCr₃As₃单晶很可能是有节点的非常规超导体.     

铁基超导体Fe1+yTe1-xSex中磁性的中子散射研究

本文对本研究组主要的研究领域——利用中子散射研究铁基超导体系Fe_1+yTe_1-xSe_x中磁性与超导的相互作用进行简要综述. Fe_1+yTe_1-xSe_x具有和其他铁基、铜基超导体相似的相图——母相Fe_1+yTe是反铁磁体, 随着Se掺杂的增加, 母相的反铁磁序受到抑制, 随后在x～30%处体超导出现, 在x～50%处达到最佳掺杂, 此时超导转变温度T_c～ 15 K, 达到整个体系在常压下的T_c最大值. 它们的相图又存在着差别: 在相图末端, 即当Se掺杂达100%时, Fe_1+ySe 仍然超导, T_c～8 K. 该体系母相磁有序的面内波矢大致为(0.5,0) (采用每个原胞含2个铁原子的四方结构), 随着Se含量的增加, 在超导逐渐发展的同时, 磁激发谱的谱重被逐渐转移到波矢为(0.5,0.5) 处. (0.5,0.5) 处在温度低于T_c 时出现中子-自旋共振峰. 施加外磁场后, 超导受到抑制, 该共振峰也被压制. 从这些实验结果我们得到以下的结论: 在这个体系中磁性和超导紧密耦合在一起——(0.5,0) 处的静态磁有序与超导互相竞争, (0.5,0.5) 附近的自旋激发则可能对超导电性的形成具有重要的促进作用. 本文还将简要讨论磁性的来源和3d 过渡金属的替代效应.     

Robustness of the unidirectional stripe order in the kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5

V-based kagome materials AV₃Sb₅ (A=K, Rb, Cs) have attracted much attention due to their novel properties such as unconventional superconductivity, giant anomalous Hall effect, charge density wave (CDW) and pair density wave. Except for the 2a₀×2a₀ CDW (charge density wave with in-plane 2×2 superlattice modulation) in AV₃Sb₅, an additional 1×4 (4a₀) unidirectional stripe order has been observed at the Sb surface of RbV₃Sb₅ and CsV₃Sb₅. However, the stability and electronic nature of the 4a₀ stripe order remain controversial and unclear. Here, by using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S), we systematically study the 4a₀ stripe order on the Sb-terminated surface of CsV₃Sb₅. We find that the 4a₀ stripe order is visible in a large energy range. The STM images with positive and negative bias show contrast inversion, which is the hallmark for the Peierls-type CDW. In addition, below the critical temperature about 60 K, the 4a₀ stripe order keeps unaffected against the topmost Cs atoms, point defects, step edges and magnetic field up to 8 T. Our results provide experimental evidences on the existence of unidirectional CDW in CsV₃Sb₅.     

Effect of lead addition to Bi-based 2222 superconducting cuprates Bi2-xPbxSr2(Y, Ce)2Cu2O10+δ

Bi_2-xPb_xSr₂(Y, Ce)₂Cu₂O_10+δ, a new family of lead containing Bi-2222 compounds has been synthesized and effects of annealing in high pressure of oxygen studied. Lead-free Bi₂Sr₂(Y, Ce)₂Cu₂O_10+δ synthesized under flowing oxygen is known to be non-superconducting, but annealing under high oxygen pressure (100 bar) at 500°C, induced superconductivity with T_c=25 K. On substitution of lead (x>0.4), the superconductivity appears even in samples synthesized under flowing oxygen (1 bar). T_c increases with oxygen annealing pressure for all compositions, and it also increases with Pb content at a given oxygen pressure. These findings are discussed.

POSITRON LIFETIME STUDIES OF Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3O7-δ AND Y1-xCaxBa2Cu3-xFexO7-δ

In this paper it is reported that the measurement of the bulk positron lifetime as a function of substitution content x in the temperature range from 70 to 220K was performed in two high-T_c superconducting systems, Y_1-xCa_xBa₂Cu_3-xFe_xO_7-δ and Y_1-xCa_xBa₂Cu₃O_7-δ. It was found that τ_B of both systems decreases significantly with x and the temperature dependence of τ_B is very weak in normal state. In lower temperature region (Tc), a dramatic x-dependent temperature variation of τ_B was observed in the Ca-substituted system: from a decrease of τ_B with decreasing T to an increase of τ_B. With increasing x, the temperature dependence of τ_B remains weak in the Ca- and Fe- substituted systems. Compared with the experimental data of positron lifetime in other substituted systems and the calculation of the positron density distribution, the authors suggest that positron bulk lifetime spectra behaviour can be interpreted by the physical model based on the transfer of electron density between the CuO₂ planes and Cu-O chains. Therefore, the study of positron lifetime spectra provides a useful means to detect the local charge density and to study the correlation between the electronic structure and the high-T_c superconductivity.     

MAGNETIC PROPERTIES AND CRYSTALLIZATION OF THE RAPIDLY QUENCHED (Fe1-xNdx) 81.5B18.5 ALLOYS

Magnetic properties and crystallization behaviors of amorphous (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys were studied. The crystallization temperature is found to rise at first and then drop monotonically with x, having a maximum value of 976K at x=0.11 (9at% Nd). The (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys prepared at a quenching rate of v_s = 6.6m /s are amorphous, and exhibit good glass formability. Both the coercive field H_c and energy product (BH)_max depend strongly on Nd concentration. Amorphous (Fe_1-xNd_x) _81.5B_18.5 alloys with higher Nd concentration have a high coercive field at low temperature, due to the large random uniaxial anisotropy of Nd. The room-temperature H_c and (BH)_max obtained on optimal annealing con-ditions show two maxima as a function of Nd concentration x. The highest room-temperature coercive field H_c =22 kOe within the Nd concentrations around x=0.368 and the maximum energy product(RH)_max= 13.3 MG·Oe at x =0.055 are observed. The hard magnetic properties of these crystallized samples are related to the presence of the bard magnetic Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase.     

Explicit Relations of Physical Potentials Through Generalized Hypervirial and Kramers' Recurrence Relations

Based on a Hamiltonian identity,we study one-dimensional generalized hypervirial theorem,Blanchardlike(non-diagonal case) and Kramers'(diagonal case) recurrence relations for arbitrary x~κ which is independent of the central potential V(x).Some significant results in diagonal case are obtained for special κ in x~κ(κ≥ 2).In particular,we find the orthogonal relation(n_1|n_2) = δ_(n_1n_2)(κ = 0),(n_1|V'(x)\n_2) =(E_(n_1)-E_(n_2))~2〈n_1x|n_2)(κ = 1),E_n =(n/V'(x)x/2|n) +(n|V(x)|n)(κ = 2) and-4E_n(n|x|n) +(n|V'(x)x~2\n〉 +4〈n|V(x)x|n〉 = 0(κ = 3).The latter two formulas can be used directly to calculate the energy levels.We present useful explicit relations for some well known physical potentials without requiring the energy spectra of quantum system.     

近紫外宽带激发LED用红色荧光粉(Gd_(1-x)Eu_x)6(Te_(1-y)Mo_y)O_(12)的制备与性能

利用高温固相法制备了一种新型红色荧光粉(Gd_(1-x)Eu_x)_6(Te_(1-y)Mo_y)O_(12),研究了Eu~(3+)单掺和Eu~(3+),Mo~(6+)共掺Gd_6TeO_(12)荧光粉的结构、形貌和荧光性能.实验结果表明,所合成的粉体为纯相.在393 nm近紫外光激发下,(Gd_(1-x)Eu_x)_6(Te_(1-y)Mo_y)O_(12)荧光粉发出特征红光,位于632 nm处的发射主峰属于Eu~(3+)的~5D_0→~7F_2跃迁.当Eu~(3+)掺杂浓度超过20%(物质的量分数)时发光出现浓度淬灭,经证实这是由电偶极-电偶极相互作用造成的.随着工作温度升高,荧光粉发光强度减小,计算得到Eu~(3+)热淬灭过程中的激活能为0.1796 eV.当(Gd_(0.8)Eu_(0.2))_6TeO_(12)中共掺Mo~(6+_(取代Te~(6+)),该荧光粉发射光谱的峰位、强度变化不大,但是Mo~(6+)-O~(2-)电荷迁移态显著增大了近紫外波段的激发带宽度,可以有效提高激发效率.具有近紫外宽带激发特征的(Gd_(0.8)Eu_(0.2))_6(Te_(0.6)Mo_(0.4))O_(12)是一种潜在的白光LED用荧光粉材料.     

The Pressure-Induced Spectral Shift Calculations for Seven Crystals with MgO,CaO, or α-A12O3 as the Hosts

The conception of expansion function ф(κ) at the exponential of d electron radial wavefunction of transition-metal cations developed in Refs. [1-5] was used to interpret pressure-induced spectral shifts of series of crystals. The red or blue shifts of the spectra of 4 crystals with MgO or CaO as hosts and 3 crystals with α-A1₂O₃ as hosts were calculated by making use of the parameters obtained from fitting the experimental spectral shifts of Mg0:Cr³⁺ and α-A1₂O₃:Cr³⁺ crystals respectively. The results are satisfactory, and it has been found that ф(κ) and η(κ) are mainly effected by the host while the difference of the impurity transition-metal ions causes ф(κ) and η(κ) varied only slightly.     

STRUCTURE AND MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF LaCo13-BASED ALLOYS

The structure and magnetic properties of two series of LaCois-based alloys, LaCo_13-xFe_x(0≤x≤6) and La_1-xR_x(Co, Fe)₁₃ (x=0.1,0.2; R=Y, Ge, Pr, Nd Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Yb), are studied by X-ray diffraction and magnetic mea- surements. In the above-mentioned composotions, all the samples display a structure of NaZn₁₃ type (space group: Fm3c). In LaCo_13-xFe_x system, as the iron content increases, its Curie temperature decreases, while thc magnetic moment per 3d atom increases. This may be explained by a rigid band model. In the other alloy system, the Curie temperature goes through a maxium at R=Gd, and this reflects the influ- ence of R - T interaction. It is also observed that saturation magnetization varies with R and gets lower when R is a heavy rare earth element. The contribution of R is close to that of a free-ion moment. La_0.9Pr_0.1Co₉Fe₄ has the largest value 29μ_B/f.u.

ELECTROREFLECTANCE SPECTRA OF GexSi1-x/Si STRAINED LAYER MULTIPLE-QUANTUM WELLS

We have investigated the optical transitions above the fundamental gap of a set of Ge_xSi_1-x/Si strained layer multiple-quantum wells by electroreflectance (ER). The sam-ples were grown by molecular beam espitaxy (MBE). The thickness of the strained layer of Ge_xSi_1-x was 5nm with Ge concentration x in the range from 0.4 to 0.5, and the Si barrier layer greater than 16nm. Considering the energy shift caused by strain and quantum well confinement, we were able to clearly recognize the transitions from different quantum well structures associated with the critical points E₀, E′₀, and E₁. The transitions of the critical points E₀ and E′₀, which are very weak in bulk mateials, are apparently enhanced in the quantum well structures.     

Magnetic entropy change and magnetic properties of LaFe_(11.5)Si_(1.5) after controlling the Curie temperature by partial substitution of Mn and hydrogenation

Magnetic properties and magnetic entropy changes of La(Fe_(1-x)Mn_x)_(11.5)Si_(1.5)H_y compounds are investigated. Their Curie temperatures are adjusted to room temperature by partial Mn substitution for Fe and hydrogen absorption in 1-atm(1 atm = 1.01325×10~5Pa) hydrogen gas. Under a field change from 0 T to 2 T, the maximum magnetic entropy change for La(Fe_(0.99)Mn_(0.01))_(11.5)Si_(1.5)H_(1.61)is-11.5 J/kg. The suitable Curie temperature and large value of ?S_m make it an attractive potential candidate for the room temperature magnetic refrigeration application.     

一级磁结构相变材料Mn0.6Fe0.4NiSi0.5Ge0.5和Ni50Mn34Co2Sn14的磁热效应与磁场的线性相关性

磁熵变（△S_M）与磁场（μ₀H）的相关性已在很多二级相变材料中被研究并报道,但一级相变材料的磁热效应与磁场相关性还少有报道.本文在具有一级磁结构相变的Mn_0.6Fe_0.4NiSi_0.5Ge_0.5材料中研究发现△S_M与μ₀H存在线性相关性,并通过麦克斯韦关系式的数值分析详细讨论了这一线性相关性的来源.同时,进一步发现在低磁场时,△S_M近似正比于μ₀H的平方.该线性相关性同样在一级磁结构相变Ni₅₀Mn₃₄Co₂Sn₁₄材料中得到了印证.但由于一级磁弹相变LaFe_11.7Si_1.3材料相变温度具有更强的磁场依赖性,不具有△S_M的线性相关性,因此,本研究表明,当磁结构相变材料的相变温度具有弱磁场依赖性时,△S_M与μ₀H具有线性相关性.进而,在磁场未达到相变饱和磁场以下,利用△S_M与μ₀H的线性相关性可以有效推测更高磁场下的△S_M.     

Pressure effect on the low temperature tetragonal phase and the superconductivity in (La1−xBax)2CuO4

The resistivity of (La_1−xBa_x)₂CuO₄ was measured under pressure up to 20 kbar. The resistive increment at low temperatures, associated with the structural phase transition to low temperature tetragonal phase, in x=0.06 was suppressed completely under pressures above 10 kbar. Dip of the superconducting transition temperature around x=0.06 is not observable under high pressures where the resistive increment at low temperatures disappears. The results give an evidence that the low temperature structural phase transition does suppress the superconductivity.     

Optical properties of wavelength-tunable green-emitting color conversion glass ceramics

Color conversion glass ceramics are prepared by cosintering borosilicate glass frits and green 0.06Ce:Y_2.94(Al_1-xGa_x)₅O₁₂ phosphors. The crystal structures, the influence of Ga concentration on the photoluminescence (PL), and reliability properties of the color conversion glass ceramics are investigated. The PL emission wavelengths of 0.06Ce:Y_2.94(Al_1-xGa_x)₅O₁₂ glass ceramics show blue shift from 545 nm to 525 nm with increasing Ga content (x value) under excited at 460 nm. Reliability test results show that the quantum yield (QY) of 0.06Ce:Y_2.94(Al_1-xGa_x)₅O₁₂ glass ceramics decreases from 70.60% to 59.06% with x value increasing from 0.15 to 0.35 under the ambient condition of 85℃/RH85% for the exposure time of 168 h. And the quantum yield (QY) of 0.06Ce:Y_2.94(Al_1-xGa_x)₅O₁₂ glass ceramics decreases from 65.13% to 52.23% after being soaked into boiled water for 4 h. The finding reveals that the addition of Ga can deteriorate the reliability of the color conversion glass ceramics.
