Magnetic phase separation in double layer ruthenates Ca3(Ru1−xTix)2O7

چکیده
A phase transition from metallic AFM-b antiferromagnetic state to Mott insulating G-type antiferromagnetic (G-AFM) state was found in Ca3(Ru(1-x)Ti(x))2O7 at about x = 0.03 in our previous work. In the present, we focused on the study of the magnetic transition near the critical composition through detailed magnetization measurements. There is no intermediate magnetic phases between the AFM-b and G-AFM states, which is in contrasted to manganites where a similar magnetic phase transition takes place through the presence of several intermediate magnetic phases. The AFM-b-to-G-AFM transition in Ca3(Ru(1-x)Ti(x))2O7 happens through a phase separation process in the 2-5% Ti range, whereas similar magnetic transitions in manganites are tuned by 50-70% chemical substitutions. We discussed the possible origin of such an unusual magnetic transition and compared with that in manganites.

Atomic-Scale Fingerprint of Mn Dopant at the Surface of Sr3(Ru1−xMnx)2O7
Chemical doping in materials is known to give rise to emergent phenomena. These phenomena are extremely difficult to predict a priori, because electron-electron interactions are entangled with local environment of assembled atoms. Scanning tunneling microscopy and low energy electron diffraction are combined to investigate how the local electronic structure is correlated with lattice distortion...

Submitted to the University of Tennessee Comprehensive Exam: Proposal for the Original Research Biao Hu Sep 24 2007 Abstract Transition metal oxides (TMOs) attract extensive attention due to the strong coupling between charge, lattice, orbital, and spin, which results in a variety of exotic phenomena. The Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) (Sr,Ca)n+1RunO3n+1 series are proto-type of strong correlated syste...
متن کاملPrediction of orbital ordering in single-layered ruthenates.
The key role of the orbital degree of freedom to understanding the magnetic properties of layered ruthenates is discussed based on the 3-orbital Hubbard model coupled to lattice distortions, using numerical and mean-field techniques. In the G-type antiferromagnetic phase of Ca(2)RuO(4), recent x-ray experiments reported 0.5 holes/site in the d(xy) orbital, while d(yz) and d(zx) orbitals contain...

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the boundary layer separation point in a magnetohydrodynamics diffuser. As an innovation, the Re value on the separation point is determined for the non-Newtonian fluid flow under the influence of the non-uniform magnetic field due to an electrical solenoid, in an empirical case. The governing equations include continuity and momentum are solve...
