Magnetism in FeO at Megabar Pressures from X-Ray Emission Spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report evidence for a preserved magnetic state in FeO up to 143 GPa at room temperature using high-resolution x-ray emission spectroscopy. This observation is based on the spectral line shape of the Fe Kb emission line. Up to the highest pressure, FeO remains a magnetic insulator. Combining our results with previous Mössbauer data, we present a new magnetic phase diagram of FeO. Features like a closed-loop P-T antiferromagnetic domain confirm that high-pressure investigations can reveal new physical properties and unexpected phenomena.

متن کاملMetal-ligand interplay in strongly correlated oxides: a parametrized phase diagram for pressure-induced spin transitions.
We investigate the magnetic properties of archetypal transition-metal oxides MnO, FeO, CoO, and NiO under very high pressure by x-ray emission spectroscopy at the Kbeta line. We observe a strong modification of the magnetism in the megabar range in all the samples except NiO. The results are analyzed within a multiplet approach including charge-transfer effects. The spectral changes are well ac...

X-ray diffraction data obtained under nonhydrostatic compression of a polycrystalline sample yield an estimate of the single-crystal elasticity tensor of the material when analyzed using appropriate equations. The analysis requires as input the aggregate shear modulus from independent measurements. The high-pressure elastic moduli of face-centered-cubic FeO, body-centered-cubic iron (a-Fe), and...
