We show that superzone gap formation-phenomena usually attributed to antiferroic ordering-can also arise from ferroic orders in materials featuring sublattice structures. Through an analysis of a 
-orbital tight-binding model on a zigzag chain, we reveal that ferroquadrupolar or ferromagnetic ordering, as well as external magnetic fields, can generate a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger-type gap.

Surface states of a tight-binding model with nearest-neighbor hopping on a diamond lattice of finite thickness are investigated. We consider systems with (001), (110), and (111) surfaces. Even if the surface direction is fixed, there is freedom to choose the surface structure due to the two-sublattice nature of a diamond lattice. The existence of surface states is governed by the topology of the matrix elements of the bulk Hamiltonian. In this sense, the existence of surface states is determined by the bulk Hamiltonian. However, the matrix elements depend on the choice of the unit cell, which should be chosen to conform to the surface structure. Thus, the surface states depend on the surface structure. We find that for each surface direction, there are two choices of surface structure, and depending on the chosen structure, the corresponding surface states emerge in distinct regions of the surface Brillouin zone.

We investigate both the nonmagnetic and magnetic ordered phases of CeCoSi using Landau theory. Our analysis predicts that three successive phase transitions occur at zero magnetic field. A quadrupole order parameter that emerges below 
= 12 K acts as a weak symmetry-breaking field on the antiferromagnetic ordering below 
= 9.4 K, giving rise to two-stage magnetic transitions. In the higher-temperature antiferromagnetic phase in the temperature range in 
= 8 K 
, an out-of-plane component of antiferromagnetic moment may be present or absent. If present, magnetic fields applied along the [100] and [110] directions induce additional magnetic phases.

We extend the previously published model that distinguishes between the diffusive motion of diamagnetic muons and the dynamics of ions around the muon in matter, and propose a generalized model for 
(Mu
s, bound states of a muon and an unpaired electron) observed in non-metallic host materials. The new model distinguishes among the independent motion of unpaired electron associated with Mu, the self-diffusive motion of Mu as single atomic entity, and that of the ions surrounding Mu, where the muon spin relaxation is induced by dynamical fluctuations of the hyperfine (HF) field exerted from the unpaired electron (e.g., due to spin/charge exchange reaction) and/or that of the nuclear hyperfine (NHF) interactions between the unpaired electron and the surrounding ions. We have applied this model to the muonated radicals (Mus in a polaron state) in conducting polymers, and examined the validity of the interpretations claimed in the earlier literature that the spin relaxation is induced by quasi-one dimensional jump motion of the unpaired electron. The result suggests that experimental support for such a claim is still inadequate and needs to be reexamined, including the possibility of other origins for the fluctuations. It is expected that our model will prove a useful guide for 
SR studies of various local dynamics involving paramagnetic muon states.

A tight-binding model for orbitals on a simple cubic lattice with finite thickness is investigated. The hopping integrals for nearest-neighboring sites are considered. We examine the electronic band structures for systems with (001), (110), and (111) surfaces. Electronic states well localized around the surfaces are found for the (110) and (111) surfaces. In particular, the surface state is flat and extends in the entire Brillouin zone for the (111) surface, provided the bulk band projected onto the surface Brillouin zone is gapped. We also find that these surface states possess octupole moments in both the (110) and (111) surface cases.

The 
-electron states of NdB were determined by observing crystalline electric field (CEF) excitations with inelastic neutron scattering experiments. Our analysis yields CEF excitation energies of 2.8, 12.4, 17.2, and 25.4 meV. The -electron states are simply described by one of 
-multiplets 
with negligibly small mixing. The ground state is the pseudo-quartet consist of the ground doublet dominated by 
and the first excited doublet dominated by 
at 2.8 meV, which is consistent with magnetic specific heat and entropy reported in earlier study. The simple -electron states in NdB are the consequence of the strong uniaxial and in-plane isotropic CEF potential due to the local structure of Nd
ions with point symmetry

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigated the magnetic-field direction anisotropy of the unknown ordered phase in the tetragonal compound CeCoSi through bulk physical property measurements. The anisotropy in the field direction, previously identified in X-ray diffraction experiments, where a field-induced phase appears along [100] but not along [110], was confirmed in the bulk properties. Combining these experimental results with Landau theory, we infer that the field-induced phase in the [100] direction emerges under an infinitesimally small magnetic field.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Two-dimensional hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) have emerged as promising materials for light-emitting diode applications. In this study, by using time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy we identified and quantitatively separated the lattice vibrational and molecular rotational dynamics of two perovskites, butylammonium lead iodide (BA)
PbI
and phenethyl-ammonium lead iodide (PEA)PbI. By examining the corresponding temperature dependence, we found that the lattice vibrations, as evidenced by neutron spectra, are consistent with the lattice dynamics obtained from Raman scattering. We revealed that the rotational dynamics of organic molecules in these materials tend to suppress their photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) while the vibrational dynamics did not show predominant correlations with the same. Additionally, we observed photoluminescence emission peak splitting for both systems, which becomes prominent above certain critical temperatures where the suppression of PLQY begins. This study suggests that the rotational motions of polarized molecules may lead to a reduction in exciton binding energy or the breaking of degeneracy in exciton binding energy levels, enhancing non-radiative recombination rates, and consequently reducing photoluminescence yield. These findings offer a deeper understanding of fundamental interactions in 2D HOIPs and could guide the design of more efficient light-emitting materials for advanced technological applications.

axis and at a 10-degree tilt from the axis towards the axis, we accurately determined the -axis component without directly measuring the -axis Knight shift. The experiment reveals that the previously reported absence of the reduction in Knight shift is attributed to the missing of signal from the superconducting region and to the detection of residual signals from the non-superconducting region instead.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)AGNES is a direct geometry chopper-type time-of-flight neutron spectrometer installed at the cold neutron guide (C3-1-1) of JRR-3 (Tokai, Japan). This instrument is well-suited for studies on low-energy excitations of powdered and amorphous samples, and quasi-elastic scattering with an energy resolution of 120 eV (standard mode) or 50 eV (high-resolution mode). During the long shutdown period of JRR-3 due to the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, AGNES was significantly improved through the installation of supermirror-coated neutron guide tubes and collimator, installation of a new-type top-loading cryo-furnace, and renewal of data acquisition electronics and software. As a result, the neutron intensity has increased by 7.7 times in the standard mode and by 3.2 times in the high-resolution mode. These enhancements facilitate experiments with small amounts of samples, and under special environments, which have previously been challenging.

Among a number of neutron scattering techniques, polarized neutron scattering is quite sensitive to the orientations of the magnetic moments, which are essential to understand microscopic mechanisms of the spin-driven emergent phenomena. Here, we present POlarized Neutron Triple-Axis spectrometer PONTA in the Japan Research Reactor 3 (JRR-3), and show the present capabilities of polarized and unpolarized neutron scattering by introducing recent results from the instrument.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigated the magnetic structure of the antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordered state ( 
34 K) in tetragonal UPtSi using polarized and unpolarized neutron diffraction. Previous neutron scattering studies reported that this system possesses a simple AFM structure with a propagation vector, Q= 0, and the ordered magnetic moments aligned along the c-axis. By contrast, our latest resonant X-ray scattering (RXS) experiments have revealed that the magnetic structure is modulated by the charge-density-wave (CDW) order, which emerges in one of the two Pt atomic layers in the unit cell below 320 K. The modulation is characterized by a transverse wave in the c-plane, with the propagation vector of the CDW order, q
= (0.42, 0, 0). In this study using neutron scattering, we observed that the superlattice reflections specified by q develop below , in addition to the magnetic reflections with Q= 0, thereby further confirming the presence of modulation in the AFM structure of this system. From detailed analyses, we revealed that the amplitude of the transverse-wave magnetic modulation is 0.72(2)
/U, which is quantitative information that can not be obtained through RXS experiments. This implies that the CDW drives the ordered magnetic moments to be tilted up to 20
in the AFM state. The observations strongly suggest that the magnetism of UPtSi is heavily influenced by the hybridization effects between the 
electrons of U and the 5d electrons of Pt.

被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：68.78(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We propose a model to describe the fluctuations in the internal magnetic field due to ion dynamics observed in muon spin relaxation (SR) by an Edwards-Anderson-type autocorrelation function that separates the quasi-static and dynamic components of the correlation by the parameter 
(where 
). Our Monte Carlo simulations for this model showed that the time evolution of muon spin polarization deviates significantly from the Kubo-Toyabe function. To further validate the model, the results of simulations were compared with the SR spectra observed in a hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite FAPbI
[with FA referring to HC(NH)], where local field fluctuations associated with the rotational motion of FA molecules and quasi-static fields from the PbI lattice are presumed to coexist. The least-squares curve fitting showed reasonable agreement with the model with

This result opens the door to the possibility of experimentally distinguishing fluctuations due to the dynamics of ions around muons from those due to the self-diffusion of muons. On the other hand, it suggests the need to carefully consider the spin relaxation function when applying SR to the issue of ion dynamics.

被引用回数：4 パーセンタイル：85.16(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the Hubbard model with the Rashba spin-orbit coupling on a square lattice. The Rashba spin-orbit coupling generates two-dimensional Weyl points in the band dispersion. In a system with edges along [11] direction, zero-energy edge states appear, while no edge state exists for a system with edges along an axis direction. The zero-energy edge states with a certain momentum along the edges are predominantly in the up-spin state on the right edge, while they are predominantly in the down-spin state on the left edge. Thus, the zero-energy edge states are helical. By using a variational Monte Carlo method for finite Coulomb interaction cases, we find that the Weyl points can move toward the Fermi level by the correlation effects. We also investigate the magnetism of the model by the Hartree-Fock approximation and discuss weak magnetic order in the weak-coupling region.
