چکیده

Double perovskites Sr 2 FeM O 6 (M =Mo and Re) exhibit significant colossal magnetoresistance even at room temperature due to the high Curie Temperature (419K and 401K). However, such a high Curie Temperature is puzzling, given the large separation between magnetic elements (Fe). Moreover, with M =W, the electronic and magnetic properties suddenly change to insulating and antiferromagnetic with the Néel temperature of only 16∼37 K. Based on detailed electronic structure calculations, a new mechanism is proposed which stabilizes the strong ferromagnetic state for M =Mo and Re and is passivated for M =W.

Synthesis, structure, and magnetic properties of novel B-site ordered double perovskites, SrLaMReO6 (M = Mg, Mn, Co and Ni).

Four new double perovskites, SrLaMReO(6) (M = Mg, Mn, Co, Ni) in which Re(5+) (5d(2)) is present, were prepared via conventional solid state reactions and characterized by X-ray and neutron powder diffraction, XANES, SQUID magnetometry, and muon spin relaxation (μSR). Synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction experiments confirmed that all compounds crystallize in the monoclinic P2(1)/n structu...

Lattice-distortion Induced Magnetic Transition from Low-temperature Antiferromagnetism to High-temperature Ferrimagnetism in Double Perovskites A2FeOsO6 (A = Ca, Sr)

High-temperature insulating ferrimagnetism is investigated in order to further reveal its physical mechanisms, as well as identify potentially important scientific and practical applications relative to spintronics. For example, double perovskites such as Sr2FeOsO6 and Ca2FeOsO6 are shown to have puzzling magnetic properties. The former is a low-temperature antiferromagnet while the latter is a...

(M=Cr,Mn,Fe,Co) by LSDA and LSDA+U

We have implemented a systematic LSDA and LSDA+U study of the double perovskites A2FeReO6 (A=Ba,Sr,Ca) and Sr2MMoO6 (M=Cr,Mn,Fe,Co) for understanding of their intriguing electronic and magnetic properties. The results suggest a ferrimagnetic (FiM) and half-metallic (HM) state of A2FeReO6 (A=Ba,Sr) due to a pdd-π coupling between the down-spin Re5+/Fe3+ t2g orbitals via the intermediate O 2pπ on...

Ab Initio Research on a New Type of Half-Metallic Double Perovskites, A2CrMO6 (A = IVA Group Elements; M = Mo, Re and W)

The research based on density functional theory was carried out using generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for full-structural optimization and the addition of the correlation effect (GGA + U (Coulomb parameter)) in a double perovskite structure, A2BB’O6. According to the similar valance electrons between IIA(s) and IVA(p), IVA group elements instead of alkaline-earth elements settled on th...

Structure prediction of ordered and disordered multiple octahedral cation perovskites using SPuDS.

The software package SPuDS has previously been shown to accurately predict crystal structures of AMX(3) and A(1 - x)A'(x)MX(3) perovskites that have undergone octahedral tilting distortions. This paper describes the extension of this technique and its accuracy for A(2)MM'X(6) ordered double perovskites with the aristotype Fm\overline 3m cubic structure, as well as those that have undergone octa...
