Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:21.40(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The layered perovskite PrBaCoO demonstrates a strong negative thermal expansion (NTE) which holds potential for being fabricated into composites with zero thermal expansion. The NTE was found to be intimately associated with the spontaneous magnetic ordering, known as magneto-volume effect (MVE). Here we report with compelling evidences that the continuous-like MVE in PrBaCoO is intrinsically of discontinuous character, originating from an magnetoelectric transition from an antiferromagnetic insulating large-volume (AFILV) phase to a ferromagnetic less-insulating small-volume (FLISV) phase. Furthermore, the magnetoelectric effect (ME) shows high sensitivity to multiple external stimuli such as temperature, carrier doping, hydrostatic pressure, magnetic field etc. In contrast to the well-known ME such as colossal magnetoresistance and multi-ferroic effect which involve symmetry breaking of crystal structure, the ME in the cobaltite is purely isostructural. Our discovery provides a new path way to realizing the ME as well as the NTE, which may find applications in new techniques.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:22.76(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)Fabricating large, high-crystalline-quality single-crystal samples of hexagonal ferrite Ba(FeSc)O is the first important step to elucidating its helimagnetic structure and developing it for further applications. In this study, single crystals of Ba(FeSc)O of various Sc concentrations were successfully grown by the spontaneous crystallization method using NaO-FeO flux. X-ray diffraction and elemental analysis revealed that the obtained crystals were composed of single-phase Ba(FeSc)O of high crystalline quality. The temperature dependence of magnetization and the magnetization curves at 77 K of the = 0.128 crystal exhibited behavior characteristics of helimagnetism. Neutron diffraction measurements of the = 0.128 crystal exhibited magnetic satellite reflection peaks below 211K, proving evidence that Ba(FeSc)O behaves as a helimagnetic material.

Times Cited Count:10 Percentile:60.76(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Thermoelectric material SnSe has aroused world-wide interests in the past years, and its inherent strong lattice anharmonicity is regarded as a crucial factor for its outstanding thermoelectric performance. However, the understanding of lattice anharmonicity in SnSe system remains inadequate, especially regarding how phonon dynamics are affected by this behavior. In this work, we present a comprehensive study of lattice dynamics on NaSnSeS by means of neutron total scattering, inelastic neutron scattering, Raman spectroscopy as well as frozen-phonon calculations. Lattice anharmonicity is evidenced by pair distribution function, inelastic neutron scattering and Raman measurements. By separating the effects of thermal expansion and multi-phonon scattering, we found that the latter is very significant in high-energy optical phonon modes. The strong temperature-dependence of these phonon modes indicate the anharmonicity in this system. Moreover, our data reveals that the linewidths of high-energy optical phonons become broadened with mild doping of sulfur. Our studies suggest that the thermoelectric performance of SnSe could be further enhanced by reducing the contributions of high-energy optical phonon modes to the lattice thermal conductivity via phonon engineering.

Spin-state transition, also known as spin crossover, plays a key role in diverse systems. In theory, the boundary range between the low- and high-spin states is expected to enrich the transition and give rise to unusual physical states. However, no compound that realizes a nearly degenerate critical range as the ground state without requiring special external conditions has yet been experimentally identified. This study reports that the Sc substitution in LaCoO3 destabilizes its nonmagnetic low-spin state and generates an anomalous paramagnetic state accompanied by the enhancement of transport gap and magneto-lattice-expansion as well as the contraction of Co-O distance with the increase of electron site transfer. These phenomena are not well described by the mixture of conventional low- and high-spin states, but by their quantum superposition occurring on the verge of a spin-state transition.

The neutron instruments suite, installed at the spallation neutron source of the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), is reviewed. MLF has 23 neutron beam ports and 21 instruments are in operation for user programs or are under commissioning. A unique and challenging instrumental suite in MLF has been realized via combination of a high-performance neutron source, optimized for neutron scattering, and unique instruments using cutting-edge technologies. All instruments are/will serve in world-leading investigations in a broad range of fields, from fundamental physics to industrial applications. In this review, overviews, characteristic features, and typical applications of the individual instruments are mentioned.

SENJU is a single crystal diffractometer installed at BL18 in MLF in J-PARC, targeting a inorganic materials and small molecular materials as well as magnetic structure analyses. Owning to the high intensity white neutron provided at MLF and many 2-dimentional detectors covering a wide scattering angle, SENJU is able to measure a wide Q-space very efficiently and has conducted many user experiments and proceeded developments of the instrument. 37 detectors surround the sample position of SENJU enabling it to efficiently measure many directions in the reciprocal space, though still there are regions in the reciprocal space which can not be measured. In order to fill the gaps, a new thin type detectors have been installed at SENJU, which realized wider coverage of the scattering angle by 10% and more efficient measurements. The data analysis software, STARGazer, has been upgraded in order for users to access and analyze data after the experiment, without setting up their PCs specifically for the software. The data is stored in the cloud and the software was modified into a web-app. Users, thus can access the data through the internet and analyze the data on their preferred web-browsers. In addition, for the improvement of the measurement efficiency, a multi-crystal measurement, where multiple crystals are simultaneously measured, has been tested and a 3-dimensional total scattering analysis has been also examined.
