Resonant X-Ray Scattering Study of Quadrupole-Strain Coupling inDyB4

Abstract: X-ray and neutron scattering studies were performed on DyB4 which exhibits both a quadrupolar ordering and a macroscopic lattice distortion. A forbidden reflection at 7.792 keV near the Dy L3 absorption edge is identified as a quadrupolar ordering peak, and the quadrupolar order and a monoclinic structural distortion develop concomitantly below 12.3 K as second-order-type phase transitions. Coupling between the quadrupolar order and the strain in DyB4 is directly demonstrated by observing that both order param… Show more

“…6. 49) In TbB 4 , the A-type order appears at 44 K and B-type order is superimposed below 22 K. 24) In DyB 4 , the G-type order appears at 20.5 K, and the A-or Btype order, which has not been determined yet, is superimposed below 12.5 K. 22,50) The ground state of HoB 4 is represented by B+G. Other RB 4 compounds also show AFM orderings with q ¼ ð0; 0; 0Þ; because the moments align along the c-axis with a strong anisotropy, they are regarded as Ising systems.…”

“…This difference presumably originates from quadrupolar and magnetic competition, which is known to be significantly stronger in HoB 4 than in DyB 4 [10]. Also, it should be noted that although TbB 4 [18,29] and GdB 4 [28] (as well as DyB 4 [15,16]) show complex magnetization behavior and quadrupolar moment frustration effects, the N eel temperatures are significantly higher, at 43 and 42 K with T N1 ¼ 20.3 K and T N2 ¼ 12.7 K, respectively. In addition, the spin orientations in the antiferromagnetic state are different for TbB 4 and GdB 4 [28,29].…”

“…Thus, the rare-earth ions in RB 4 materials form a Shastry-Sutherland (SS)-type geometrically frustrated lattice [20]. Such systems include HoB 4 [10e14], DyB 4 [15,16], ErB 4 [17], TbB 4 [18], and TmB 4 [19]. However, the competition between the quadrupolar and magnetic interactions in HoB 4 is expected to stronger than that in DyB 4 [10] HoB 4 is one of the interesting tetraborides, as it displays multistep magnetic transitions and non-collinear magnetism [21].…”

“…Many works have been reported on the RB 4 series, where R ¼ Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho. [114][115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122] Successive phase transitions commonly take place in RB 4 , and the quadrupolar interaction has been considered to play an important role. A characteristic magnetic structure realized in the anisotropic local crystal field and the geometrically frustrated lattice exhibit various kinds of interesting phase transition phenomena.…”
