Effect of Fe-substitution on the structure and magnetism of single crystals Mn2-xFexBO4

Single crystalline Mn2-xFexBO4 with x = 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 grown by the flux method have been studied by means of X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy at both Mn and Fe K edges. The compounds were found to crystallize in an orthorhombic warwickite structure (sp. gr. Pnam). The magnetization data have revealed a spin-glass transition at TSG= 11, 14 and 18 K for x= 0.3, 0.5 and 0.7, respectively.

Fermi surface of three-dimensional La1-xSrxMnO3 explored by soft-X-ray ARPES: Rhombohedral lattice distortion and its effect on magnetoresistance

Electronic structure of the three-dimensional colossal magnetoresistive perovskite La1-xSrxMnO3 has been established using soft-X-ray ARPES with its intrinsically sharp definition of three-dimensional electron momentum. The experimental results show much weaker polaronic coupling compared to the bilayer manganites and are consistent with the GGA+U band structure. The experimental Fermi surface unveils the canonical topology of alternating three-dimensional electron spheres and hole cubes, with their shadow contours manifesting the rhombohedral lattice distortion. This picture has been confirmed by one-step photoemission calculations including displacement of the apical oxygen atoms. The rhombohedral distortion is neutral to the Jahn-Teller effect and thus polaronic coupling, but affects the double-exchange electron hopping and thus the colossal magnetoresistance effect.

Crystal and local atomic structure of Co-doped MgFeBO_4 warwickites

Single crystalline MgFeBO_4, Mg_0.5Co_0.5FeBO_4 and CoFeBO_4 have been grown by the flux method. The samples have been characterized by X-ray spectral analysis, X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra have been measured at the Fe andCoK-edges over a wide temperature range (6.5 - 300 K). The composition, the charge state and local environment of both Fe and Co atoms have been determined. The effects of Mg substitution by Co on the local structural distortions have been revealed experimentally and the M-O bond anisotropy has been found.
