Unconventional Pressure Evolution of Spin-Density-Wave State in La$_{3}$Ni$_{2}$O$_{7}$
The discovery of pressure-induced high temperature superconductivity in the bilayer nickelate La$_{3}$Ni$_{2}$O$_{7}$ has raised the question of how its spin-density-wave (SDW) state evolves toward the superconducting regime. Here, we report a systematic electronic Raman study of La$_{3}$Ni$_{2}$O$_{7}$ single crystals under hydrostatic pressures up to 16.51 GPa. Both the SDW gap energy and the transition temperature $T_{\mathrm{SDW}}$ show an overall increase with pressure, while the dimensionless coupling ratio 2$\Delta_{\text{SDW}}/(k_{\text{B}}T_{\text{SDW}})$ remains constant around $\sim7.5$, indicating a robust strong-coupling character of SDW state. At the same time, the Raman SDW peak broadens as pressure is applied, indicating a gradual weakening of long-range SDW order. These results reveal an unusual pressure evolution in which the SDW energy scale is enhanced while the SDW state becomes progressively less coherent, providing spectroscopic constraints on the magnetic correlations relevant to superconductivity in bilayer nickelates.
