Comment on "Direct observation of charge ordering in magnetite using resonant multiwave x-ray diffraction".
The study of the Verwey transition in magnetite has been a matter of intense study during the last years [1,2]. The mechanism proposed by Verwey [3] was the charge localization and ordering of the electrons at the iron octahedral sites giving rise to an ordered sequence of Fe3þ and Fe2þ ions. Recent x-ray diffraction and resonant x-ray scattering at the iron K edge have strongly modified this d...
متن کاملResonant x-ray diffraction studies on the charge ordering in magnetite.
Here we show that the low temperature phase of magnetite is associated with an effective, although fractional, ordering of the charge. Evidence and a quantitative evaluation of the atomic charges are achieved by using resonant x-ray diffraction (RXD) experiments whose results are further analyzed with the help of ab initio calculations of the scattering factors involved. By confirming the resul...
متن کاملCharge-orbital ordering and Verwey transition in magnetite measured by resonant soft X-ray scattering.
We report experimental evidence for the charge-orbital ordering in magnetite below the Verwey transition temperature T(V). Measurements of O K-edge resonant x-ray scattering on magnetite reveal that the O 2p states in the vicinity of the Fermi level exhibit a charge-orbital ordering along the c axis with a spatial periodicity of the doubled lattice parameter of the undistorted cubic phase. Such...
متن کاملSeparating the causes of orbital ordering in LaSr2Mn2O7 using resonant soft x-ray diffraction
Resonant soft x-ray diffraction has been used to probe the temperature dependent orbital and magnetic structure of LaSr2Mn2O7. Previous crystallographic studies have shown that this material has almost no MnO6 oxygen displacement due to Jahn-Teller distortions at low temperatures. Within the low-temperature A-type antiferromagnetic phase, we found strong intensity at the ( 1 4 , 1 4 , 0) orbita...
متن کاملResonant soft X-ray diffraction - in extremis.
The use of softer-energy X-rays produced by synchrotron radiation for diffraction is an area of current interest. In this paper, experiments exploiting resonant scattering at the L absorption edges of 3d transition metal elements are reported. Such energies, typically 500-1000 eV, are at the extreme limit of soft X-ray diffraction where absorption effects are so severe that the sample and diffr...
