Magnetocaloric effect of Sr-substituted BaFeO$$_{3}$$ in the liquid nitrogen and natural gas temperature regions

Yoshii, Kenji; Hayashi, Naoaki*; Mizumaki, Masaichiro*; Takano, Mikio*

We have investigated the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of Ba$$_{1-x}$$Sr$$_{x}$$Fe$$^{4+}$$O$$_{3}$$ (x$$underline{<}$$0.2), a series of cubic perovskites showing a field-induced transition from helical antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism. The maximum magnetic entropy change (-$$Delta$$S$$_{max}$$) at 50 kOe varies from $$sim$$ 5.8 J kg$$^{-1}$$K$$^{-1}$$ (x=0) to $$sim$$ 4.9 J kg$$^{-1}$$K$$^{-1}$$ (x=0.2), while the refrigerant capacity remains almost the same at $$sim$$165 J kg$$^{-1}$$. Interestingly, the temperature of -$$Delta$$S$$_{max}$$ decreases from $$sim$$116 K to $$sim$$77 K with increasing x, providing this series of rare-earth-free oxides with potential as a magnetic refrigerant for the liquefaction of nitrogen and natural gas.

We investigated the electronic structure of BaFeO$$_{3}$$ by using HAXPES and XAS measurements and first principle studies. The experimental and theoretical results indicated that BaFeO$$_{3}$$ is a negative charge transfer compound. We concluded that the on-site Coulomb energy and the strong hybridization between Fe-3d and O-2p orbitals play a very important role of emergence of negative charge transfer. And we found the new structure in the Fe-2p XPS spectrum and concluded this structure is originated from non-local screening.

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) of BiNi$$_{1_x}$$Fe$$_x$$O$$_3$$ is investigated by dilatometric curves, synchrotron X-ray diffraction, and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. All samples (x=0.05-0.15) shows large NTE with the coefficient of linear thermal expansion which induced by charge transfer between Bi$$^{5+}$$ and Ni$$^{2+}$$ in the controlled temperature range near room temperature. Compared with Bi$$_{1_x}$$Ln$$_x$$NiO$$_3$$ (Ln: rare-earth elements), the thermal hysteresis that causes a problem for practical application is suppressed because random distribution of Fe in the Ni site changes the first order transition to second order-like transition.

Magnetocaloric effect of field-induced ferromagnet BaFeO$$_{3}$$

Mizumaki, Masaichiro*; Yoshii, Kenji; Hayashi, Naoaki*; Saito, Takashi*; Shimakawa, Yuichi*; Takano, Mikio*

We have investigated the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) of a perovskite oxide, BaFeO$$_{3}$$, that shows ferromagnetism by the aid of a small external field of about 0.3 T below the Curie temperature T$$_{C}$$ = 111 K. The magnetization is found to change almost reversibly in both field and temperature cycles. Hence, magnetic and thermal hysteretic losses are negligibly low during refrigeration, a property that is suitable for application. The reversible MCE is likely to arise from the absence of an orbital magnetic moment of Fe ions which are essentially in the Fe$$^{3+}$$L state (L: ligand hole). The magnetic entropy change and refrigerant capacity near the T$$_{C}$$ are about 5.8 J kg$$^{-1}$$ K$$^{-1}$$ and about 172 J kg$$^{-1}$$, respectively, both of which are comparable to those of ferromagnetic perovskite manganites. As BaFeO$$_{3}$$ contains no rare metals and is stable against corrosion, the material can be regarded as a candidate refrigerant material.

Ca$$_{1-x}$$Sr$$_x$$RuO$$_3$$, which is ferromagnetic for Sr concentration x $$>$$ 0.3, has been studied by X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) in Ru 3$$p$$ and O 1$$s$$ core-level X-ray absorption. XMCD signals appear at x $$sim$$ 0.3 and monotonically increases with x in the ferromagnetic phase. While the monotonic increase of the XMCD signals with x is of a typical Stoner-type, the absence of appreciable change in the spectral line shapes of both the Ru 3$$p$$ and O 1$$s$$ XMCD spectra indicate that the itinerant-electron ferromagnetism in Ca$$_{1-x}$$Sr$$_x$$RuO$$_3$$ is influenced by strong electron correlation.

Low-energy spectroscopic mapping studies in optimally-doped Ca$$_{2-x}$$Na$$_x$$CuO$$_2$$Cl$$_2$$

We performed high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy on an optimally-doped Ca$$_{2-x}$$Na$$_x$$CuO$$_2$$Cl$$_2$$ crystal. The so-called checkerboard local-density-of-state modulation manifests in the spectroscopic map of the optimally-doped sample. In addition, spatially-inhomogeneous energy gap is observed. The gap tends to be buried at elevated temperatures and correlates with the checkerboard modulation. These results suggest that the gap is related to superconductivity which coexists with the checkerboard modulation.

A new experimental technique was developed for detecting structure changes at electrode/electrolyte interface of lithium cell using X-ray reflectometry and two-dimensional model electrodes with a restricted lattice-plane. The electrodes were constructed with an epitaxial film of LiCoO$$_{2}$$ synthesized by pulsed laser deposition method. The anisotropic properties were confirmed by electrochemical measurements. ${it Ex situ}$ X-ray reflectivity measurements indicated that the impurity layer existed on the as-grown LiCoO$$_{2}$$ was dissolved and a new SEI layer with lower density was formed after soaking into the electrolyte. ${it In situ}$ X-ray reflectivity measurements indicated that the surface roughness of the intercalation (1 1 0) plane increased with applying voltages, while no significant changes in surface morphology were observed for the intercalation non-active (0 0 3) plane during the pristine stage of the charge-discharge process.

Structural properties of polycrystalline single-phased BiMnO$$_3$$ samples prepared at 6 GPa and 1383 K have been studied by selected area electron diffraction (SAED), convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED), and the Rietveld method using neutron diffraction data measured at 300 and 550 K. The SAED and CBED data showed that BiMnO$$_3$$ crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group C2/c at 300 K. The analysis of Mn-O bond lengths suggested that the orbital order present in BiMnO$$_3$$ at 300 K melts above T= 474 K. The phase transition at 474 K is of the first order and accompanied by a jump of magnetization and small changes of the effective magnetic moment and Weiss temperature.

The crystal and magnetic structures of polycrystalline BiCoO$$_3$$ have been determined by the Rietveldmethod from neutron diffraction data measured at temperatures from 5 to 520 K. BiCoO$$_3$$ (space groupP4mm; Z=1; a=3.72937(7) ${AA}$ and c=4.72382(15) ${AA}$ at room temperature; tetragonality c/a=1.267) is isotypic with BaTiO$$_3$$ and PbTiO$$_3$$ in the whole temperature range. BiCoO$$_3$$ is an insulator with a Neeltemperature of 470 K. A possible model for antiferromagnetic order is proposed with a propagationvector of k=(1/2, 1/2, 0). In this model, magnetic moments of Co$$^{3+}$$ ions are parallel to the c directionand align antiferromagnetically in the ab plane. The antiferromagnetic ab layers stack ferromagneticallyalong the c axis, forming a C-type antiferromagnetic structure. Refined magnetic moments at 5 and 300K are 3.24(2)$$mu$$$$_B$$ and 2.93(2)$$mu$$$$_B$$, respectively. The structure refinements revealed no deviation fromstoichiometry in BiCoO$$_3$$. BiCoO$$_3$$ decomposed in air above 720 K to give Co$$_3$$O$$_4$$ and sillenite-like Bi$$_{25}$$CoO$$_{39}$$.

Inelastic neutron scattering experiments were performed on A$$_3$$Cu$$_3$$(PO$$_4$$)$$_4$$ (A=Ca, Sr, and Pb), which consists of one-dimensional array of linear copper spin trimers. It was found that the magnetic excitations are well described by the linear Heisenberg antiferromagnetic spin trimer model without adjustable parameters except the overall scale factor. The intra-trimer coupling contants are determined to be 9.39(4), 9.99(4), and 9.07(4) meV for A$$_3$$Cu$$_3$$(PO$$_4$$)$$_4$$ with A=Ca, Sr, and Pb, respectively.

The antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagnetic transition in SrFe$$_{1-x}$$Co$$_x$$O$$_3$$ ($$x_c$$$$simeq$$0.15) induced by Co doping has been studied by magnetic circular X-ray dichroism. The orbital and spin magnetic moments of the Fe and Co 3$$d$$ states under the magenetic field of 2 T are found to show different $$x$$ dependences: The spin polarization of Fe 3$$d$$ gradually increases with Co concentration; On the other hand, a large spin polarization of Co 3$$d$$ is induced already in the antiferromagnetic phase, indicating that the Co moment is nearly fully alligned already in the antiferromagnetic phase. This suggests that the alignment of the Fe magnetic moment in SrFe$$_{1-x}$$Co$$_x$$O$$_3$$ is induced by interaction with doped Co magnetic moment. Possible formation of ferromagnetic Co rich region is discussed.

X-ray anomalous diffraction, together with a band structure calculation, was employed to obtain a quantitative comprehension of the charge-ordering state in a single-crystalline CaFeO$$_{3}$$ thin film. The experimental results show a characteristic energy dispersion of the near inhibited reflection at 150, implying Fe atoms split into two distinct states. The energy dispersion is in good agreement with the calculated spectrum based on LDA+U scheme. The calculation reveals an electronic configuration of the Fe 3d orbital follows a localization in the oxygen orbital surrounds one of the distinct Fe atoms.
