液芯光纤中溶液吸收和荧光的性质对CS2受激拉曼散射阈值的影响

利用液芯光纤技术研究了不同浓度的β-Carotene的CS₂溶液的吸收与荧光的特性对CS₂的一、二阶Stokes谱线阈值的影响.实验发现随溶液浓度(10^-8—10^-6 mol/L)增加，CS₂的一阶Stokes谱线的激发阈值相对变高；并且与纯CS₂芯液的受激拉曼散射相比较，在低抽运能量激发下，就观察到CS₂的二阶Stokes谱线.这主要是由于在CS₂的受激拉曼谱线产生的过程中，β-Carotene的CS₂溶液的吸收和荧光共同影响了CS₂的一、二阶Stokes谱线的阈值.我们进行了理论上的拟合与分析，其结果与实验符合很好. 关键词： 2受激拉曼散射阈值')" href="#">CS₂受激拉曼散射阈值 液芯光纤 吸收与荧光

第一原理研究Mn掺杂LiNbO3晶体的磁性和光吸收性质

采用基于密度泛函理论和局域密度近似的第一性原理分析了Mn掺杂LiNbO₃晶体的结构, 磁性, 电子特性和光吸收特性. 文中计算了Mn占据Li位和Nb位体系的形成焓, 对应的形成焓分别为-8.340 eV/atom和-8.0062 eV/atom, 也就意味着Mn 原子优先占据Li位. 这也就意味着Mn原子占据Li位的掺杂LiNbO₃晶体结构更稳定. 磁性分析的结果显示, 其对应磁矩也比占据Nb位的高. 进一步分析磁性的来源, 自旋态密度结果显示: Mn掺杂LiNbO₃晶体的磁性主要源于掺杂原子Mn, Mn原子携带的磁矩高达 4.3 μ_B, 显示出高自旋结构. 由于Mn-3d与近邻O-2p及次近邻Nb-4d 轨道的杂化作用, 计算表明: 诱导近邻O原子及次近邻Nb原子产生的磁矩对总磁矩的贡献较小. 通过光学吸收谱的分析, 得出在可见光区Li位被Mn原子替代以后显示出更好的光吸收响应相比于Nb位. 本文还分析了O空位对于LiNbO₃晶体磁性与电子性质的影响, 结果显示O空位的存在可以增加Mn掺杂LiNbO₃体系的磁性.     

Field dependence of spin and orbital moments of Fe in L10 FePt magnetic thin films

The field dependence of spin and orbital magnetic moments of Fe in L1₀ FePt magnetic thin films was investigated using X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). The spin and orbital moments were calculated using the sum rules; it was found that the spin and orbital moment of Fe in L1₀ FePt films are ∼2.5 and 0.2 μ_B, respectively. The relative XMCD asymmetry at Fe L₃ peak on the dependence of applied field suggested that the majority magnetic moment of L1₀ FePt films resulted from Fe.     

Identification of local magnetic contributions in a Co2FeBO5 single crystal by XMCD spectroscopy

The temperature dependences of the X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) and of the spectra of X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) are measured near the L _3,2 absorption edges of Co and Fe in ludwigite Co₂FeBO₅ single crystals. The antiparallel orientation of the magnetic moments of cobalt and iron is demonstrated. The coercive fields related to cobalt and iron ions are determined. The orbital (m _l ) and (m _s ) spin contributions to the total magnetic moments of cobalt and iron ions are identified. The ratios and relative directions of m _l and m _s are found.     

X-ray magnetic circular dichroism sum rule correction for the light transition metals

Distinguishable L₂ and L₃ edges and a clear separation into j _3/2 and j _1/2 excitations are necessary for the application of L_2,3 edge X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) sum rules, which provide element-specific information about spin and orbital magnetic moments. This separation is present for the heavy transition metals (TM), like Co and Ni, due to their large L_2,3 spin–orbit splitting. However, for the light TM, the 2p spin–orbit splitting is strongly reduced and quantum mechanical mixing of j _3/2 and j _1/2 excitations is present. This mixing reduces the observed XMCD related spin and magnetic dipole term contributions and prevents the direct application of XMCD spin sum rules. A large number of 2p?→?3d absorption spectra have been fitted nearly perfectly by a simple and phenomenological model, which takes into account lifetime effects and provides quantitative information about jj-mixing at the light TMs. On the basis of this mixing coefficient, sum rule correction factors have been determined. The proposed model results in renormalized magnetic projected XMCD spin moments, verified for different compounds of V, Cr, and Mn. A comparison with complementary methods gives consistent results. This or a similar fitting procedure and the estimated correction factors can be used in the future as a light element XMCD spin renormalization technique.     

Local Moment of Ir in Fe,Co and Ni Hosts Probed by Ir L 2,3 Edge X-Ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism

The formation of an induced 5d magnetic moment on Ir in Fe₉₇Ir₃, Co₉₅Ir₅ and Ni₉₅Ir₅ alloys has been investigated by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) measurements at Ir L _2,3 edges. Using a sum rule which relates the integrals of these spectra with the ground state expectation value of the orbital angular momentum 〈L _Z 〉 of the probed atom, the orbital moment m _orb of Ir could be determined as −0.071(2) μ _B in an Fe host, −0.067(2) μ _B in a Co host and −0.041(1) μ _B in a Ni host. The spin magnetic moment m _spin of Ir is also found to be the maximal in Fe and the minimal in Ni. The total moment of Ir is found to be approximately 1/5 of total moment of Fe, 2/13 of the total moment of Co, and 1/4 of the total moment of Ni.

X-ray magnetic circular dichroism at IrL2,3 edges in Fe100−x Ir x and Co100−x Ir x alloys: Magnetism of 5d electronic states

The formation of induced 5d magnetic moment on Ir in Fe_100−x Ir _x (x=3, 10 and 17) and Co_100−x Ir _x (x=5, 17, 25 and 32) alloys has been investigated by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) at Ir L_2,3 absorption edges. Sum rule analysis of the XMCD data show that the orbital moment of Ir is in the range of −0.071(2)μB to −0.030(1)μB in Fe-Ir alloys and −0.067(2)μB to 0.024(1)μB in Co-Ir alloys. We find that the total moment of Ir in Fe-Ir alloys is approximately 1/5 of the total 3d moment on Fe at all the three compositions. In contrast, the total moment on Ir in Co-Ir alloys varies between 1/6 to 1/16 of the 3d moment on cobalt. The observed trends of Ir moments and the role of interatomic exchange interactions in 5d moment formation are discussed.     

Sum rules for X-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectra in strongly correlated ferromagnets

It is proven that the sum rules for X-ray magnetic dichroism (XMCD) spectra that are used to separate spin and orbital contributions to the magnetic moment are formally correct for an arbitrary strength of electron-electron interactions. However, their practical application for strongly correlated systems can become complicated due to the spectral density weight spreading over a broad energy interval. Relevance of incoherent spectral density for the XMCD sum rules is illustrated by a simple model of a ferromagnet with orbital degrees of freedom.     

Multiple scattering approach to Co K-edge XMCD and XANES spectra in Gd–Co alloys

We have measured and analyzed Co K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) near edge spectra in crystalline and amorphous GdCo₂ alloys. We have used a semi-relativistic full multiple scattering approach to the analyses of the XMCD spectra. A general formula is obtained which is applicable to randomly oriented systems in space. Useful information is obtained on both the electronic and geometric structure around a Co atom. The difference in XANES and XMCD spectra between crystalline and amorphous GdCo₂ is well explained by models referring to the anomalous X-ray scattering result, where three Gd atoms in the second shell are removed away. The calculated XANES are not so sensitive to the electronic structure, whereas the calculated XMCD spectra are rather sensitive to the spin polarization on Co atoms. The result shows that the spin polarization on Co atoms in GdCo₂ alloys is smaller than that in Co metals.     

Field dependence of orbital magnetic moments in the Heusler compounds Co<Subscript>2</Subscript>FeAl and Co<Subscript>2</Subscript>Cr<Subscript>0.6</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>0.4</Subscript>Al

Orbital and spin magnetic moments of the Heusler compounds Co₂FeAl and Co₂Cr_0.6Fe_0.4Al were measured by magnetic circular dichroism in X-ray absorption (XMCD). The orbital magnetic moments per spin are quite large (0.1–0.2) compared to bulk values of Fe and Co metals, indicating a considerable spin–orbit coupling in these Heusler compounds. A strong localization of the 3d electron states might be responsible for this observation. The Co and Fe orbital to spin moment ratio shows a distinct decrease of r(Fe)=0.04±0.02 and r(Co)=0.06±0.02 with increasing external field for the ternary compound Co₂FeAl, while the ratio is within error limits independent of the field for Co₂Cr_0.6Fe_0.4Al. This is discussed in terms of a relation to magnetocrystalline anisotropies. PACS 75.50.Cc; 71.20.Lp; 78.40.Kc
