Resonant 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 کاملComment 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 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 کاملHigh-resolution High Energy X-ray Diffraction Studies of Charge Ordering in Cmr Manganites and Nickelates
High-resolution, high-energy, X-ray diffraction results are presented for the study of weak charge ordering phenomenon. By utilizing X-rays in the 100 keV region the dramatic increase in the penetration depth allows for both bulk-sensitive and highresolution measurements to be made. The strontium doped La2NiO4 system is a prototypical system in the understanding of strong electron-phonon coupli...
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...
