AbstractMass-selected V and Fe monomers, as well as the heterodimer $${\text{Fe}}_1{\text{V}}_1$$ Fe 1 V 1 , were deposited on a Cu(001) surface. Their electronic and magnetic properties were investigated via X-ray absorption (XAS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy. Anisotropies in the magnetic moments of the deposited species could be examined by means of angle resolving XMCD, i.e. changing the X-ray angle of incidence. A weak adatom-substrate-coupling was found for both elements and, using group theoretical arguments, the ground state symmetries of the adatoms were determined. For the dimer, a switching from antiparallel to parallel orientation of the respective magnetic moments was observed. We show that this is due to the existence of a noncollinear spin-flop phase in the deposited dimers, which could be observed for the first time in such a small system. Making use of the two magnetic sublattices model, we were able to find the relative orientations for the dimer magnetic moments for different incidence angles.

Long Range Magnetic Order

AbstractThe emergence of ferromagnetism in materials where the bulk phase does not show any magnetic order demonstrates that atomically precise films can stabilize distinct ground states and expands the phase space for the discovery of materials. Here, the emergence of long-range magnetic order is reported in ultrathin (111) LaNiO3 (LNO) films, where bulk LNO is paramagnetic, and the origins of this phase are explained. Transport and structural studies of LNO(111) films indicate that NiO6 octahedral distortions stabilize a magnetic insulating phase at the film/substrate interface and result in a thickness-dependent metal–insulator transition at t = 8 unit cells. Away from this interface, distortions relax and bulk-like conduction is regained. Synchrotron x-ray diffraction and dynamical x-ray diffraction simulations confirm a corresponding out-of-plane unit-cell expansion at the interface of all films. X-ray absorption spectroscopy reveals that distortion stabilizes an increased concentration of Ni2+ ions. Evidence of long-range magnetic order is found in anomalous Hall effect and magnetoresistance measurements, likely due to ferromagnetic superexchange interactions among Ni2+–Ni3+ ions. Together, these results indicate that long-range magnetic ordering and metallicity in LNO(111) films emerges from a balance among the spin, charge, lattice, and orbital degrees of freedom.

ABSTRACTWe report on the new epitaxial system LaF3/Er/Dy/Er/LaF3/GaAs (111) grown by molecular beam epitaxy. X-ray diffraction studies have been used to determine the epitaxial relationships between the rare earths, the LaF3 and the substrate. Further studies of symmetric and asymmetric reflections yielded the in-plane and perpendicular strain components of the rare earth layers. Such systems may be used to probe the effects of magnetoelastic interactions and dimensionality on magnetic ordering in rare earth metal films and multilayers.

Ammonolysis of vanadium sulfide leads to the formation of bixbyite-type vanadium oxide nitrides. Small amounts of nitrogen incorporated in the structure result in the stabilization of the bixbyite type not known for vanadium oxides. The crystal structure was investigated using X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. At temperatures above 550 °C the powders decompose to corundumtype V2O3 containing no detectable amount of nitrogen. Below 39 K magnetic ordering is observed.

A New Technique

Recent progress in the development of dichroic Bragg coherent diffractive imaging, a new technique for simultaneous three-dimensional imaging of strain and magnetization at the nanoscale, is reported. This progress includes the installation of a diamond X-ray phase retarder at beamline 34-ID-C of the Advanced Photon Source. The performance of the phase retarder for tuning X-ray polarization is demonstrated with temperature-dependent X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements on a gadolinium foil in transmission and on a Gd5Si2Ge2crystal in diffraction geometry with a partially coherent, focused X-ray beam. Feasibility tests for dichroic Bragg coherent diffractive imaging are presented. These tests include (1) using conventional Bragg coherent diffractive imaging to determine whether the phase retarder introduces aberrations using a nonmagnetic gold nanocrystal as a control sample, and (2) collecting coherent diffraction patterns of a magnetic Gd5Si2Ge2nanocrystal with left- and right-circularly polarized X-rays. Future applications of dichroic Bragg coherent diffractive imaging for the correlation of strain and lattice defects with magnetic ordering and inhomogeneities are considered.

We present the results of superconductivity, normal state magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity measurements on the tetragonal CaLa 1-x Pr x BaCu 3 O 7 compound. Ac susceptibility measurements show that the transition temperature T c of the unsubstituted sample decreases with an increase in the Pr concentration. Normal state dc magnetic susceptibility measurements performed in an applied field of 0.5 T show a Curie–Weiss behaviour in terms of the paramagnetic moment of Pr. The effective paramagnetic moment of Pr appears to be intermediate between those of the free Pr 3+ and Pr 4+ ions. For the nonsuperconducting samples i.e., x = 0.70 and 1.0, we observe an antiferromagnetic ordering temperature T N of nearly 4 K and 8 K respectively. The X-ray diffraction results show that the CaPrBaCu 3 O 7 compound is free from other phases, having a minor (less than 8%, in terms of peak intensity) impurity phase. The lower T N (8 K) of PrBaCaCu 3 O 7 as compared to the known antiferromagnetic ordering temperature of 17 K for PrBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 indicates a less deleterious effect of Pr in the present case.
