By employing the method of ligand field theory, we calculated the additional potential energies of d electron states of V3X(X = Si, Ga, Ge, Sb, Sn) superconducting compounds, these energies are induced by the D2d) crystal field. We obtained the analytic relation between the. lattice constant and the relative displacement of d sublevels △E⊥, which is the characteristic quantity for the model of d band relative displacement. The numerical values of △E⊥ and the magnetic susceptibilities calculated by using them are also presented.
According to the model of the relative displacement of the d subbands in reference [1], the paramagnetic susceptibility and its temperature dependence of V3B type of A-15 superconducting compounds are calculated. The results are roughly in agreement with experimental data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
