Neutron-Scattering Evidence for a Spin-Peierls Ground State in (TMTTF)2PF6
نویسندگان
چکیده
~MTTF)2X, with X=PF6, exhibits, at Tsp, a spin-Peierls transition. Below Tsp elastic neutron scattering measurements performed on large protonated and deuterated samples reveal the formation of very weak superstructure reflections at the (1/2,1/2,1/2) reduced wave vector. Upon deuteration Tsp decreases by 30% while the charge ordering (CO) transition increases by 25%. In this framework we stress the importance of the anions, X,, and of their organic cavities to stabilize the CO transition of the (TMTTF):X salts. PACS numbers: 71.27+a, 71.45 Lr, 77.80 Bh.

متن کاملDielectric Response of Charge Induced Correlated State in the Quasi-one-dimensional Conductor (tmttf) 2 Pf 6 Typeset Using Revt E X 1
Conductivity and permittivity of the quasi-one-dimensionsional organic transfer salt (TMTTF)2PF6 have been measured at low frequencies (10 3 − 10 Hz) between room temperature down to below the temperature of transition into the spin-Peierls state. We interpret the huge real part of the dielectric permittivity (up to 10) in the localized state as the realization in this compound of a charge orde...
متن کاملInfluence of Charge Order on the Ground States of TMTTF Molecular Salts
(TMTTF )2AsF6 and (TMTTF )2SbF6 are both known to undergo a charge ordering phase transition, though their ground states are different. The ground state of the first is Spin-Peierls, and the second is an antiferromagnet. We study the effect of pressure on the ground states and the charge-ordering using C NMR spectroscopy. The experiments demonstrate that the the CO and SP order parameters are r...

2014 Preparation, magnetic and transport properties under pressure of an organic conductor based on the new molecule di-tetramethyldithiadiselenafulvalene (TMDTDSF )2PF6 are reported. This compound is isostructural to the (TMTTF-TMTSF )2X series. At ambient pressure, Coulomb induced localization is observed below 180 K. Spin-Peierls ordering occurs at 20 K and a spin density wave state is stabi...
متن کاملSinglet-triplet excitations in the unconventional spin-Peierls TiOBr compound.
We have performed time-of-flight neutron scattering measurements on powder samples of the unconventional spin-Peierls compound TiOBr using the fine-resolution Fermi chopper spectrometer (SEQUOIA) at the Spallation Neutron Source at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. These measurements reveal two branches of magnetic excitations within the commensurate and incommensurate spin-Peierls phases, which w...
