Frustrated Magnetism of Pharmacosiderite Comprising Tetrahedral Clusters Arranged in the Primitive Cubic Lattice

We show that pharmacosiderite is a novel cluster antiferromagnet comprising frustrated regular tetrahedra made of spin-5/2 Fe3+ ions that are arranged in the primitive cubic lattice. The connectivity of the tetrahedra and the inter-cluster interaction of 2.9 K, which is significantly large compared with the intra-cluster interaction of 10.6 K, gives a unique playground for frustration physics. An unconventional antiferromagnetic order is observed below TN ~ 6 K, which is accompanied by a weak ferromagnetic moment and a large fluctuation as evidenced by Mossbauer spectroscopy. A q = 0 magnetic order with the total S = 0 for the tetrahedral cluster is proposed based on the irreducible representation analysis, which may explain the origin of the weak ferromagnetism and fluctuation.

Bent Electronic Band Structure Induced by Ferroelectric Polarization

Bent band structures have been empirically described in ferroelectric materials to explain the functioning of recently developed ferroelectric tunneling junction and photovoltaic devices. This report presents experimental evidence for ferroelectric band bending, which was observed in the depth profiles of atomic orbitals of angle-resolved hard x-ray photoemission spectra of ferroelectric BaTiO3 thin films. The ferroelectric bent band structure is separated into three depth regions; the shallowest and deepest regions are slightly modulated by the screening effect at surface and interface, respectively, and the intermediate region exhibits the pure ferroelectric effect. In the pure ferroelectric bent band structure, we found that the binding energy of outer shell electrons shows a larger shift than that of inner shell electrons, and that the difference in energy shift is correlated with the atomic configuration of the soft phonon mode. These findings could lead to a simple understanding of the origin of electric polarization.

Superconductivity in Ca10(Ir4As8)(Fe2As2)5 with Square-Planar Coordination of Iridium

We report the unprecedented square-planar coordination of iridium in the iron iridium arsenide Ca10(Ir4As8)(Fe2As2)5. This material experiences superconductivity at 16 K. X-ray photoemission spectroscopy and first- principles band calculation suggest Ir(II) oxidation state, which yields electrically conductive Ir4As8 layers. Such metallic spacer layers are thought to enhance the interlayer coupling of Fe2As2, in which superconductivity emerges, thus offering a way to control the superconducting transition temperature.
