Spin fluctuations in Al3V: An NMR study
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report the results of a nuclear magnetic resonance ~NMR! study of Al3V at temperatures between 4 and 300 K. V and Al Knight shifts exhibit a Curie-Weiss behavior corresponding to an effective moment Pe f f.0.32mB per V, indicating intrinsic weak magnetism localized in vanadium orbitals. The T1 exhibits a AT dependence at higher temperatures, indicative of nearly antiferromagnetic behavior of itinerant electrons. We have fit the observed behavior within the self-consistent renormalized model for itinerant magnetism, which provides good agreement with the measurements. At about 80 K, the Knight shifts and spin-lattice relaxation rates exhibit a crossover from Curie-Weiss magnetism to Korringa behavior. Comparing previously reported specific heat and transport results with our NMR results, we find that the Wilson ratio and Kadowaki-Woods relation are close to those observed for highly correlated electron compounds, despite the relatively small enhancement of g and x . @S0163-1829~99!16835-8#

Local electromagnetic properties of magnetic pnictides: a comparative study probed by NMR measurements.
(75)As and (31)P NMR studies are performed in PrCoAsO and NdCoPO respectively. The Knight shift data in PrCoAsO indicate the presence of an antiferromagnetic interaction between the 4f moments along the c axis in the ferromagnetic state of Co 3d moments. We propose a possible spin structure in this system. The (75)As quadrupolar coupling constant, νQ, increases continuously with decrease of tem...
متن کاملAntiferromagnetic spin fluctuations in CeRhSn
We have carried out Sn nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on the quasi-Kagomé compound CeRhSn. We found that Sn Knight shift sKd is highly anisotropic and shows Curie-Weiss type temperature sTd dependence above 25 K. In this T range, the NMR relaxation rate shows s1/T1d~ÎT and is enhanced by magnetic fluctuations. At low T’s, K stays constant and the enhanced Korringa relation of sT1...
متن کاملSuperconductivity induced by longitudinal ferromagnetic fluctuations in UCoGe.
From detailed angle-resolved NMR and Meissner measurements on a ferromagnetic (FM) superconductor UCoGe (T(Curie)∼2.5 K and T(SC)∼0.6 K), we show that superconductivity in UCoGe is tightly coupled with longitudinal FM spin fluctuations along the c axis. We found that magnetic fields along the c axis (H∥c) strongly suppress the FM fluctuations and that the superconductivity is observed in the ...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics studies of NMR relaxation in proteins.
There is a growing awareness that the visualization of proteins as large rigid molecules, each of which can be described by a single static structure, is inadequate. Instead, it is now realized that proteins undergo structural fluctuations which span a range of times from subpicoseconds to milliseconds or longer. In this report we are concerned with the relation between protein fluctuations occ...
متن کاملDynamical theory of spin noise and relaxation: Prospects for real-time NMR measurements.
Recent developments in theoretical aspects of spin noise and relaxation and their interrelationship reveal a modified spin density, distinct from the density matrix, as the necessary object to describe fluctuations in spin systems. These fluctuations are to be viewed as an intrinsic quantum mechanical property of such systems immersed in random magnetic environments and are observed as "spin no...
