Chemical pressure induced spin reorientation in the magnetic structure of Ca3Mn2−xSnxO7 ( x=0,0.03,0.05 )

The effect of partially substituting Tin (Sn) at the Manganese (Mn) site of Ca3Mn2O7 , viz. Ca3Mn2−xSnxO7 with x=0.03,0.05 , on its structural and magnetic properties have been investigated using synchrotron diffraction, neutron diffraction, and bulk magnetization measurements. It is observed that with a substitution of x=0.03 , the minor (≈8%) tetragonal ( I4/mmm ) structural phase that is present in the predominantly orthorhombic ( Cmc21 ) undoped Ca3Mn2O7 , completely disappears. The compounds order antiferromagnetically, the ordering temperature decreases with increasing Sn-content, indicating a weakening of the antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. Interestingly, in the ordered state, the spin magnetic moments which were aligned along the a-axis of the unit cell in the undoped compound, are observed to have reoriented with their major components lying in the b − c plane in the Sn-doped compounds. The above influence of Sn-doping is seen to be stemming from a significant modification of the octahedral rotation and tilt mode geometry in the unit cell, that is known to be responsible for driving ferroelectricity in these compounds.

Giant Room-Temperature Topological Hall Effect in a Square-Net Ferromagnet LaMn2Ge2.

A topological magnetic material showcases a multitude of intriguing properties resulting from the compelling interplay between topology and magnetism. These include notable phenomena such as a large anomalous Nernst effect (ANE), an anomalous Hall effect (AHE), and a topological Hall effect (THE). In most cases, topological transport phenomena are prevalent at temperatures considerably lower than room temperature, presenting a challenge for practical applications. However, the noncollinear ferromagnetic (FM) LaMn2Ge2, characterized by a Mn square-net lattice and a notably high Curie temperature (TC) of approximately 325 K, defies this trend as a topological semimetal. This work observes a giant topological Hall resistivity, , of ≈4.5 µΩ cm at room temperature when the angle between the applied field and the c-axis is 75°, which is significantly higher than state-of-the-art materials with noncoplanar spin structures. The single crystal neutron diffraction measurements agree with an incommensurate conical magnetic structure as the ground state. This observation suggests the enhanced spin chirality resulting from the noncoplanar spin configuration when the applied field is away from the magnetic easy axis as the origin of a large contribution to the observed THE. The findings unequivocally demonstrate that the FM LaMn2Ge2 holds great promise as a potential topological semimetal for spintronic applications even at room temperature.

Single-crystal neutron diffraction study on the Ho13.6Au61.1Al25.3 quasicrystal approximant

A single-crystal neutron diffraction study was conducted on a Ho13.6Au61.1Al25.3 Tsai-type quasicrystal approximant synthesised by the self-flux method. The magnetisation measurements reveal a ferrimagnetic behaviour with a transition below 6 K. In agreement with the magnetometry data, a non-coplanar whirling spin order in the icosahedral clusters around the crystallographic [1 1 1] direction with a ferrimagnetic arrangement was observed from single-crystal neutron diffraction measurements below 5.5 K. The magnetic structure of Ho13.6Au61.1Al25.3 is compared to the previously published magnetic structures of related RE-Au-SM (RE = Tb and Ho; SM = Al, Si and Ga) systems.

Neutron Diffraction Measurements of Residual Stresses for Ferritic Steel Specimens over 80 mm Thick

The maximum thickness for ferritic steel specimens’ residual stress measurements using neutron diffraction is known to be about 80 mm. This paper proposes a new neutron diffraction configuration of residual stress measurements for cases that are over 80 mm thick. The configuration utilizes a neutron beam with a wavelength of 1.55 Å diffracted from the (220) plane with a diffraction angle (2θ) of 99.4°. The reason for the deep penetration capability is attributed to the chosen wavelength having enough intensities due to the low cross-section near the Bragg edge and the reduced beam path length (~16 mm) reflected by the large diffraction angle. Neutron diffraction experiments with this configuration can decrease strain errors up to ±150 με, corresponding to a stress of about ±30 MPa.

Magnetic order in holmium and erbium formate: Parent frameworks for a potential random spin chain paramagnet

This work uses a combination of neutron diffraction and bulk property measurements to establish the low temperature magnetic states in the dense metal-organic frameworks Ho(HCO2)3 and Er(HCO2)3; whose structures feature chains of face-sharing LnO9 polyhedra packed into a triangular lattice. Below 0.7 K Ho(HCO2)3 is found to adopt a state in which the magnetic moment on its ferromagnetic chains vary from neighbouring chains but the sum around each triangle is constant. Er(HCO2)3 is found to be the first lanthanide formate to adopt an ordered magnetic state with antiferromagnetic coupling within its chains near 50 mK. The potential to combine the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic coupling within chains associated with Ho and Er cations, respectively, in the same compound has also been explored via the series Ho1-xErx(HCO2)3. Ho0.5Er0.5(HCO2)3 remains paramagnetic to 0.4 K, suggesting it may be a starting point to search for a random spin chain paramagnet.

Long-range magnetic order in CePdAl3 enabled by orthorhombic deformation

We investigate the effect of structural deformation on the magnetic properties of orthorhombic CePdAl3 in relation to its tetragonal polymorph. Utilizing x-ray and neutron diffraction, we establish that the crystal structure has the Cmcm space-group symmetry and exhibits pseudotetragonal twinning. According to density functional calculations, the tetragonal-orthorhombic deformation mechanism has its grounds in the relatively small free enthalpy difference between the polymorphs, allowing either phase to be quenched, and fully accounts for the twinned microstructure of the orthorhombic phase. Neutron diffraction measurements show that orthorhombic CePdAl3 establishes long-range magnetic order below TN=5.29(5) K characterized by a collinear, antiferromagnetic arrangement of magnetic moments. Magnetic anisotropies of orthorhombic CePdAl3 arise from strong spin-orbit coupling as evidenced by the crystal-field splitting of the 4f multiplet, fully characterised with neutron spectroscopy. We discuss the potential mechanism of frustration posed by antiferromagnetic interactions between nearest neighbors in the tetragonal phase, which hinders the formation of long-range magnetic order in tetragonal CePdAl3. We propose that orthorhombic deformation releases the frustration and allows for long-range magnetic order. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Stroboscopic time-of-flight neutron diffraction in long pulsed magnetic fields

We present proof-of-principle experiments of stroboscopic time-of-flight (TOF) neutron diffraction in long pulsed magnetic fields. By utilizing electric double-layer capacitors, we developed a long pulsed magnet for neutron diffraction measurements, which generates pulsed magnetic fields with the full widths at half maximum of >102 ms. The field variation is slow enough to be approximated as a steady field within the time scale of a polychromatic neutron pulse passing through a sample placed in a distance of the order of 101 m from the neutron source. This enables us to efficiently explore the reciprocal space using a wide range of neutron wavelength in high magnetic fields. We applied this technique to investigate field-induced magnetic phases in the triangular lattice antiferromagnets CuFe1−xGaxO2 (x=0,0.035). Published by the American Physical Society 2024

Noncentrosymmetric Triangular Magnet CaMnTeO6: Strong Quantum Fluctuations and Role of s0 versus s2 Electronic States in Competing Exchange Interactions.

Noncentrosymmetric triangular magnets offer a unique platform for realizing strong quantum fluctuations. However, designing these quantum materials remains an open challenge attributable to a knowledge gap in the tunability of competing exchange interactions at the atomic level. Here, a new noncentrosymmetric triangular S=3/2 magnet CaMnTeO6 is created based on careful chemical and physical considerations. The model material displays competing magnetic interactions and features nonlinear optical responses with the capability of generating coherent photons. The incommensurate magnetic ground state of CaMnTeO6 with an unusually large spin rotation angle of 127°(1) indicates that the anisotropic interlayer exchange is strong and competing with the isotropic interlayer Heisenberg interaction. The moment of 1.39(1)µB, extracted from low-temperature heat capacity and neutron diffraction measurements, is only 46% of the expected value of the static moment 3µB. This reduction indicates the presence of strong quantum fluctuations in the half-integer spin S=3/2 CaMnTeO6 magnet, which is rare. By comparing the spin-polarized band structure, chemical bonding, and physical properties of AMnTeO6 (A=Ca, Sr, Pb), how quantum-chemical interpretation can illuminate insights into the fundamentals of magnetic exchange interactions, providing a powerful tool for modulating spin dynamics with atomically precise control is demonstrated.

Real-time evolution of texture and temperature during friction stir processing of a magnesium alloy: An operando neutron diffraction study

The real-time development of texture and the evolution of temperature during friction stir processing (FSP) of a Mg alloy were investigated using an operando neutron diffraction measurement. A novel approach was applied in this study where the real-time, quasi-steady state measurements performed as a function of position during FSP are converted to a Lagrangian dataset that reveals the transient behavior as a function of time. The in-situ FSP was carried out under two different thermo-mechanical processing conditions represented by the Zener-Hollomon parameter, Z. The results show that: (i) a shear texture develops from the initial strong basal texture with the peak temperature reaching about 774 K during a low-Z processing and (ii) a strong off-normal texture develops with a peak temperature of 616 K during a high-Z processing. Moreover, time-temperature-texture diagrams were established to reveal the real-time development of the texture during the processing for both the low Z and high Z processing conditions. The changes in texture will be discussed in terms of plastic deformation mechanisms active during various stages of the FSP under the two different processing conditions.

Pressure-tuned quantum criticality in the large-D antiferromagnet DTN

Strongly correlated spin systems can be driven to quantum critical points via various routes. In particular, gapped quantum antiferromagnets can undergo phase transitions into a magnetically ordered state with applied pressure or magnetic field, acting as tuning parameters. These transitions are characterized by z = 1 or z = 2 dynamical critical exponents, determined by the linear and quadratic low-energy dispersion of spin excitations, respectively. Employing high-frequency susceptibility and ultrasound techniques, we demonstrate that the tetragonal easy-plane quantum antiferromagnet NiCl2 ⋅ 4SC(NH2)2 (aka DTN) undergoes a spin-gap closure transition at about 4.2 kbar, resulting in a pressure-induced magnetic ordering. The studies are complemented by high-pressure-electron spin-resonance measurements confirming the proposed scenario. Powder neutron diffraction measurements revealed that no lattice distortion occurs at this pressure and the high spin symmetry is preserved, establishing DTN as a perfect platform to investigate z = 1 quantum critical phenomena. The experimental observations are supported by DMRG calculations, allowing us to quantitatively describe the pressure-driven evolution of critical fields and spin-Hamiltonian parameters in DTN.

Structural and magnetic properties of YNi4-xCoxSi alloys

The transition-metal based alloy system YNi4-xCoxSi shows a second-order ferromagnetic-to-paramagnetic transition near room temperature. Here, the magnetic structure, the magnetocaloric properties and the magnetic anisotropy of YNi4-xCoxSi (x = 0–4) are investigated. For x = 3.5, 3.75 and 4.0 a Curie temperature near room temperature is observed with TC = 250, 283 and 310 K, respectively. In orientated YNi4-xCoxSi powder samples the c axis of the hexagonal crystal structure is found to be the easy magnetic axis, with a large dominant K2 anisotropy constant (K2 >K1 > 0). The magnetic structure and the preferred atomic position for Ni are demonstrated by neutron diffraction measurements. We have found a dramatic decrease in the magnetic moment at the 3g site in the CaCu5-type structure (space group P6/mmm), the saturation magnetization and the Curie temperature with increasing Ni concentration.

C-Type Antiferromagnetic Structure of Topological Semimetal CaMnSb2

Determination of the magnetic structure and confirmation of the presence or absence of inversion ( P ) and time reversal ( T ) symmetry is imperative for correctly understanding the topological magnetic materials. Here high-quality single crystals of the layered manganese pnictide CaMnSb2 are synthesized using the self-flux method. De Haas–van Alphen oscillations indicate a nontrivial Berry phase of ∼ π and a notably small cyclotron effective mass, supporting the Dirac semimetal nature of CaMnSb2. Neutron diffraction measurements identify a C-type antiferromagnetic structure below T N = 303(1) K with the Mn moments aligned along the a axis, which is well supported by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The corresponding magnetic space group is Pn′m′a′, preserving a P×T symmetry. Adopting the experimentally determined magnetic structure, band crossings near the Y point in momentum space and linear dispersions of the Sb 5p y, z bands are revealed by the DFT calculations. Furthermore, our study predicts the possible existence of an intrinsic second-order nonlinear Hall effect in CaMnSb2, offering a promising platform to study the impact of topological properties on nonlinear electrical transports in antiferromagnets.

Effect of Layer Addition on Residual Stresses of Wire Arc Additive Manufactured Stainless Steel Specimens

Abstract Residual stresses have been characterized in four Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing specimens with neutron diffraction technique. First, two methods are investigated for obtaining the reference diffracted angle θ0 that is required for the computation of microstrains and, thus, the stresses; θ0 was obtained with two approaches. The first one required a strain-free specimen in order to get directly the reference diffracted angles θ0 in the three principal directions. The second one is based on the plane stress assumption to get θ0 indirectly by imposing that the normal stress was equal to zero. Both methods led to similar residual stress profiles for the one-layer specimen which validated this approach for all specimens without a strain-free specimen available. The second part of this work focused on the modification of the residual stresses in the specimen following the addition of a new deposit. The neutron diffraction measurements showed that the longitudinal stress was tensile in the heat-affected and fusion zones with a maximum value located at the parent material–layers interface where the thermal loadings were applied. A decrease of this maximum value from 257 MPa to 199 MPa appeared after deposition of a new layer which is due to some stress relaxation effect. Inside the parent material, a large zone presents compressive longitudinal stress up to −170 MPa. The bottom part of the parent material is under tensile stress likely due to its upward bending following the thermal contraction of the deposited layers during cooling to ambient temperature.

Magnetic field-induced narrow first-order and metamagnetic phase transitions of Nd5Ge3

We report on the magnetic behaviour of Nd5Ge3 by investigating through magnetization, neutron diffraction and muon spin relaxation measurements. Temperature dependent-magnetization, muon depolarization rate (λ), initial asymmetry (A0) and the stretched exponent (β) show a clear anomaly at the Néel temperature TN ∼ 54 K. However, the short-range correlated ferromagnetic interactions below TN are inferred from the diffuse scattering mechanism as revealed by zero-field neutron diffraction data. Narrow first order phase transition is due to the competing interaction of a high temperature weak-antiferromagnetic and low temperature glassy states. Magnetic field-induced reentrant spin glass state from a magnetic glass state is observed, before it transforms to a ferromagnetic state.

Structure, Spin Correlations, and Magnetism of the S = 1/2 Square-Lattice Antiferromagnet Sr2CuTe1-xWxO6 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1).

Quantum spin liquids are highly entangled magnetic states with exotic properties. The S = 1/2 square-lattice Heisenberg model is one of the foundational models in frustrated magnetism with a predicted, but never observed, quantum spin liquid state. Isostructural double perovskites Sr2CuTeO6 and Sr2CuWO6 are physical realizations of this model but have distinctly different types of magnetic order and interactions due to a d10/d0 effect. Long-range magnetic order is suppressed in the solid solution Sr2CuTe1-xWxO6 in a wide region of x = 0.05-0.6, where the ground state has been proposed to be a disorder-induced spin liquid. Here, we present a comprehensive neutron scattering study of this system. We show using polarized neutron scattering that the spin liquid-like x = 0.2 and x = 0.5 samples have distinctly different local spin correlations, which suggests that they have different ground states. Low-temperature neutron diffraction measurements of the magnetically ordered W-rich samples reveal magnetic phase separation, which suggests that the previously ignored interlayer coupling between the square planes plays a role in the suppression of magnetic order at x ≈ 0.6. These results highlight the complex magnetism of Sr2CuTe1-xWxO6 and hint at a new quantum critical point between 0.2 < x < 0.4.

Enhanced magnetocaloric effect accompanying successive magnetic transitions in TbMn2Si2-xGex compounds

The lack of magnetic refrigeration (MR) materials with high magnetocaloric effect (MCE) and large relative cooling power (RCP) in the temperature range required for hydrogen liquefaction (20 K–77 K) is a bottleneck for practical applications of MR cooling systems. The present investigation of TbMn2Si2-xGex compounds (x = 0.1, 0.2) by variable temperature neutron and synchrotron X-ray diffraction, magnetization and heat capacity measurements, establish that substitution of Si with Ge in TbMn2Si2 leads to a significant enlargement of the unit cell and modification of the magnetic properties. Two consecutive ferromagnetic first-order transitions occur below 77 K with the third transition from paramagnetism to a collinear antiferromagnetic state being determined around 500 K. The resultant plateau-like MCE with large RCP below 77 K in these designed compounds offers scope for application for hydrogen liquefaction. Detailed neutron investigation confirm that four magnetic states exist within the temperature range 5 K to 500 K, with two successive first-order magnetic transitions below 77 K responsible for the large MCE. Our specific heat studies provide evidence of strong contributions from the nuclear specific heat and the corresponding nuclear specific heat coefficients of A = 430 ± 50 mJ mol−1 K and A = 418 ± 60 mJ mol−1 K have been determined for TbMn2Si2-xGex with x = 0.1 and x = 0.2, respectively. The overlapping entropy curves near these successive transitions lead to a plateau-like magnetothermal effect as well as a large reversible MCE for both samples (e.g. ΔSMmax = 14.0 J/kg K and ΔTmax = 7.6 K; RCP = 379 J/kg for TbMn2Si1.9Ge0.1 for an applied field of 5 T) indicating that the material can operate over a wide temperature range – particularly for hydrogen liquefaction.

Investigation of Stable Structures and Electronic States of Spinel MgCo2−ZNi0.5MnAlzO4 (z = 0, 0.3) during Discharge Process As Cathode Materials for Magnesium Rechargeable Batteries Using First-Principles Calculations

Introduction Recently, it is focused on storage batteries materials for reduce of greenhouse gases. In particular, the development of large equipment like as electric vehicles is driving demand for storage battery materials. Although lithium-ion batteries are currently used as storage battery devices, Li metal is a rare metal and expensive, and the development of higher capacity battery materials is needed. Our research group is focusing on magnesium secondary battery cathode materials. In previous report, spinel MgCo2-xMnxO4 (x=0~0.5) (space group Fd-3m) has synthesized and evaluated its battery characteristics, showing an initial discharge capacity of more than 200mAh/g when the Mn substitution amount is x=0.5.1) Since the inclusion of substituted species improves battery properties, we synthesized Al substituted spinel MgCo2-zNi0.5MnAlzO4. In this study, we reported that Mg/Co cation mixing, which was particularly problematic at z=0.3 was reduced compared to MgCo2-xMnxO4 resulting in improved cycle properties.2) The purpose of this study is to clarify the stable local structure of pristine and discharge process of spinel type MgCo2-zNi0.5MnAlzO4 (z=0, 0.3) and to determine the contribution of Al substitution to the electronic structure by performing electron density calculation. Calculation The structural relaxation calculation was performed by generalized gradient approximation (GGA) exchange-correlation potential used with a plane-wave cutoff energy of 550 eV, and 1×2×2 k-point mesh was applied, corresponding to the inverses of the lattice constants on Vienna Ab-initio Simulation Package (VASP) code. The convergence criterion for structural optimization was that the energy difference per iteration be less than or equal to 0.02 eV/Å. 2×1×1 supercell was created and structural relaxation calculation was performed on various initial structural models to determine the energetically optimal structure. Initial structure models were constructed to ensure reproduction of the occupancies determined by an average structure analysis from Rietveld analysis using synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Result and discussion In this study, we performed structural relaxation calculations for spinel-type MgCo2-zNi0.5MnAlzO4 (z=0, 0.3) to obtain the stable structure before and during charge-discharge. The initial model before charging and discharging was created based on the occupancy of each site obtained by crystal structure analysis using neutron diffraction measurements.2) The initial model at discharge was obtained by inserting Mg into the 16c vacancy site in the stable structure before charging and discharging. Figure 1 shows the stable structure after structural relaxation calculations before for a-1) z=0 and b-1) z=0.3 and after discharge (y=0.375) for a-2) z=0 and b-2) z=0.3, respectively. The solid circled Mg is the inserted one, and the dotted circle is the 8a site that became vacant after the structural relaxation calculation in Fig. 1. The crystal structure in pristine was spinel structure, however, it is found that the 4-coordinated 8a site became a vacancy and Mg occupied the 16c site, changing the crystal structure to a rocksalt structure after discharge. Since the 8a and 16c site are close to each other, the insertion of Mg into the 16c site causes a structural change due to the repulsion between atoms and cations on the 8a site, which leads to a chain transfer to other vacancy 16c sites. In particular, models with large structural changes tended to have stable structures. It is also found that Mg remained at the 8a site in z=0.3 shown in b-2) than in z=0 shown in a-2), and that Co at the 8a site could not move to the vacancy in z=0, and that the amount of change in the entire structure is less than that in z=0.3. As a result of partial density of states (PDOS) calculation, it is confirmed that Co and Mn had 2.6 ~ 2 valence and Mn is considerably close to 3 valence during discharge. It is also found that the PDOS of Ni did not almost change before and after discharging, and that no valence change occurred. These results are consistent with those of previously reported XANES measurements.2) Therefore, the model in Fig. 1 determined in this study is considered to be valid.

Unveiling exotic magnetic phase diagram of a non-Heisenberg quasicrystal approximant

A magnetic phase diagram of the non-Heisenberg Tsai-type 1/1 Au-Ga-Tb approximant crystal (AC) has been established across a wide electron-per-atom (e/a) range via magnetization and powder neutron diffraction measurements. The diagram revealed exotic ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) orders that originate from the unique local spin icosahedron common to icosahedral quasicrystals (iQCs) and ACs; The noncoplanar whirling AFM order is stabilized as the ground state at the e/a of 1.72 or less whereas a noncoplanar whirling FM order was found at the larger e/a of 1.80, with magnetic moments tangential to the Tb icosahedron in both cases. Moreover, the FM/AFM phase selection rule was unveiled in terms of the nearest neighbour (J1) and next nearest neighbour (J2) interactions by numerical calculations on a non-Heisenberg single icosahedron. The present findings will pave the way for understanding the intriguing magnetic orders of not only non-Heisenberg FM/AFM ACs but also non-Heisenberg FM/AFM iQCs, the latter of which are yet to be discovered.

Prediction of residual strain/stress validated with neutron diffraction method for wire-feed hybrid additive/subtractive manufacturing

Hybrid manufacturing integrates additive manufacturing (AM) and subtractive manufacturing in the same machine. The integration of the two processes enables the creation of complex geometry, further reduces material waste, and decreases lead time. Moreover, this in-envelop method enables an interleaved printing strategy in which the part is partially AM printed and then machined repeatedly. This method is not available in either traditional manufacturing or AM technologies. Nevertheless, measuring and controlling of distortion and residual stress are still challenging due to highly varying process conditions and limited access to the machine during hybrid additive/subtractive manufacturing processes. Moreover, the residual stress measurement is ex-situ process, so it only gives information at the final stage of stress evolution. Therefore, it’s nearly impossible to know the AM induced residual stress distribution before the machining process in hybrid additive/subtractive process. In this prospective, numerical modeling can be an effective tools to overcome those challenges. However, the modelling/simulation methods for fully-coupled additive and subtractive operation has not reported to the best of our knowledge. In this work, we developed a comprehensive simulation method using finite element method (FEM) for fully-coupled additive and subtractive manufacturing process. The results were validated with strain measurements by neutron diffraction in two different machining conditions: hot-machining and cold-machining. The validated model was used to investigate how machining affects part distortion and evolution of residual strain/stress during fabrication. Alternating tensile-compression longitudinal (ε11, x-direction) strains and stresses along the build direction showed the physical interaction of additive and subtractive steps in the interleaved strategy. The alternating pattern was found in both the model and neutron diffraction measurements. This work’s findings can be used to develop strategies to control of part distortion and residual stresses in the hybrid additive/subtractive manufacturing process.
