By the technological improvement, the information development is changing with the passing day and various several mediums are keeping researching to satisfy the request of data’s storage and recordation. Since 1995 materials of TMR (tunneling magnetoresistance) effect were improved evidently, in few years it’s magnetic induction rose double. TMR materials show much higher MR% (about 25~50%) than traditional GMR materials (about 10%) under room temperature, so it is considered to apply to MR sensor of the magnetic recording industry. Accordingly,
in
this research the Sr2FeMoO6(Sr2BB′O6) double perovskites compounds were
fabricated by keeping the stoichiometry of the alkaline earth strontium ion and displacing the position of B or B′ with different 3d, 4d and 5d transition metals. Therefore, based syatems of 3d5(Fe) systems of Sr2FeMoO6 (Fe3+:Mo5+ ⇔ 3d5:4d1) and
synthesized. Moreover, their crystal structures, magnetic and electrical properties have been studied which may lead to develop the optimal composition and excellent properties of the new TMR materials. Keywords: tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR)、 giant magnetoresistance (GMR)、double perovskites、Sr2FeMoO6、Sr2FeWO6
二、緣由與目的
In ordered double perovskites denoted as A2BB
O6 (where A = alkaline-earth or rare-earth ion), the
transition metal sites are occupied alternately by different cations B and B. It is known that the differences in the valence and size between the B and B cations in double perovskites type compounds are crucial to controlling the physical properties.1-2 Among them, Sr2FeMoO6 have been known as
potential magnetoresistance materials, which show large low-field tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) at room temperature (RT).3 The magnetic structure of Sr2FeMoO6 was attributed to an ordered arrangement
of parallel Fe3+ (3d5, S = 5/2) magnetic moments, antiferromagnetically coupled with Mo5+ (4d1, S = 1/2) spins. Since Fe3+ is in the high spin state, its d orbitals are split into spin up and spin down states. Sleight et al.4 proposed that if the spin down 3d orbitals of Fe have similar energy to the 4d orbitals of Mo, they can form a narrow band and provide the conduction mechanism. The band calculations, which show a mixing of the spin-down O 2p, Fe 3d and Mo 4d bands at the Fermi level supported this mechanism.3,5-6 Other Fe-based ordered double perovskites A2FeMO6 (A = Ba, Sr, Ca; M= Mo, Re)
have also been reported to have half-metallic nature and high Tc .7-13
On the other hand, recently, the further study to figure out some effects of Fe/Mo disorder on magnetic and electrical properties in Sr2FeMoO6.
14,15
For ordered state, the Fe3+ and Mo5+ ions antiferromagnetically coupled and give rise to ferromagnetic metal with saturated magnetization Ms = 4 ìB. However, most of the experiments data
showed a reduced Ms. This fact seems to be related to antisite defects, where some of the Fe and Mo ions interchange their crystallographic positions. The actual degree of Fe/Mo order depends on synthesis conditions. As a rule of thumb, increased order may be obtained with increased synthesis temperature or treatment time.16,17
In relation to the electronic configurations of the Sr2FeMoO6, the average valence for Fe was also
been found to be intermediate between high spin configurations values of Fe2+ and Fe3+ from MÖssbauer spectroscopy studies.
8,18,19
This suggests that both electronic configurations with Fe2+ and Fe3+ must be considered as degenerate, with the final state being a combination of both configurations.
Conversely, Sr2FeWO6 is know as an
antiferromagnetic insulator with TN of 16-37 K,
where Fe2+ ions is in the high-spin state (S = 2), and W6+ ion (5d0) is in the non-magnetic state.20-22 This
would give rise to a complete localization of the valence electrons, explaining the decrease in conductivity. Therefore, the fundamental question is why the W case so different from the Mo case despite the fact that W is 5d analogue of 4d Mo in the row of the Periodic Table?
In this research we report the synthesis and characterization of the Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W)
samples with particular focus on the effect of the variation of B -site transition metal on the physical properties. We will show that the stronger 2p(O)-4d(Mo) hybridization compared with the 2p(O)-5d(W) hybridization is the main source of the difference between Sr2FeMoO6 and Sr2FeWO6.
三、研究方法
Sample Pr epar ation. The samples of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) were prepared by solid state
reaction. Stoichiometric mixtures of high purity oxides SrCO3, Fe2O3 or MoO3 and WO3 were
calcined at 800 °C for 12 h in air. The obtained powders were ground and pressed into pellets (15 mm in diameter and 3 mm in thickness). The pellets of Sr2FeMoO6 were then sintered at 1000 °C for 38 h
in a 5 % H2 / N2 gas mixture. However, the pellets of
Sr2FeWO6 were sintered at 1200 °C for 18 h in a 5 %
H2 / N2 gas mixture.
Char acter ization. X-ray diffraction (XRD)
measurements were carried out on a SCINTAG (X1) diffractmeter (Cu Kα radiation, λ = 1.5406 Å ) at 40 kV and 30 mA. The GSAS program23 was used for the Rietveld refinements in order to obtain information on the crystal structures of Sr2FeMO6 (M
= Mo, W). A pseudo-Voigt function was chosen to generate the line shape of the diffraction peaks. In the final runs, the positional coordinates, isotropic thermal factors, and anti-site disorder of Fe、Mo and
W atoms were refined. Scanning electron
micrographs (SEMs) were measured at room temperature by a Philips XL30 SEM equipped with a field emission gun at 15 kV. Electron diffraction (ED) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) were carried out using a JEOL 4000EX electron microscope operated at 400 kV. Image simulation was made using CaRIne software. The samples for microscopic measurement were dispersed in alcohol before being transferred to the carbon coated copper grids. The resistively measurements at zero field [(ñ(T))] and under a magnetic field [(ñ(H))] were performed with a Quantum Design PPMS (physical properties measurements system), using the conventional four-probe technique, under magnetic fields up to 3 T. Magnetization measurements were performed on a SQUID magnetometer from 0 to 350 K in field-cooled (FC) and Zero-field-cooled (ZFC) modes.
X-r ay Absor ption Measur ements. X-ray
absorption near edge structure (XANES)
measurements at Fe-L23 were performed at the
national synchrotron radiation research center (NSRRC) in Hsinchu, Taiwan with an electron beam
energy of 1.5 GeV and a maximum stored current of 240 mA. All the measurements were performed at room temperature. The XANES measurements at the Fe-L23 edge were performed at the 6-m high-energy
spherical grating monochromatic (HSGM) beamline BL20A. The sample were in powder form, attached on conducting tape, and then put into an ultrahigh vacuum chamber (10-9 Torr) in order to avoid surface contamination. The spectra were recorded by measuring the sample current. The incident photon flux (I0) was monitored simultaneously by using a Ni
mesh located after the exit slit of the monochromatic beam. The reproducibility of the adsorption spectra of the same sample in different experimental runs was found to be extremely good.
Band str uctur e calculations. Band structures of
tetragonal (Sr2FeMoO6) and orthorhombic
(Sr2FeWO6) were calculated using the all-electron
full-potential theory linear augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method.24 These calculations were based on first-principles density functional theory (DFT) with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) to the exchange-correlation potential. Fe 4s4p3d, Mo 5s5p4d, W 6s6p5d, O 2s2p, and Sr 5s5p5d were treated as band states. The shallow Fe:3s3p, Mo:4s4p, W:5s5p, and Sr:4s4p orbitals were also treated as band states by using the so-called local orbitals. A large number (~120/atom) of augmented plane waves were used. The wave function, charge densities, and potentials were expanded in terms of the spherical harmonics inside the muffin-tin spheres with Lmax =
10, 6 and 6, respectively.
四、結果與討論
The powder XRD patterns of the Sr2FeMO6 (M
= Mo, W) samples are shown in Figure 1. Each composition of these samples is of single phase. For the samples with Sr2FeMoO6 and Sr2FeWO6 all the
peaks in each pattern can be indexed on the basis of a tetragonal (space group: I4/m) and orthorhombic unit cell (space group: Immm), respectively. Moreover, the concept of the tolerance factor can be adapted to double perovskites as well. In general, for double perovskites, with mixed A-site AA´BB´O6, the
tolerance factor (tfactor) is defined: 25,26
(1)
In which rA, rA´, rB, rB´and rOare the ionic radii
of the respective ions. The tfactor = 1 for the
compound with an ideal cubic perovskite structure. If tfactor < 1, the perovskite structure is likely to be
unstable. Therefore, the tfactor decreased (from 0.990
for Sr2FeMoO6 to 0.988 for Sr2FeWO6) while gave
rise to unstable the structure and induced structure changes from tetragonal to orthorhombic unit cell at RT. Figures 2 (a) and (b) display the observed and calculated X-ray powder diffraction profiles at 300 K of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) samples, respectively. All
the observed peaks can be fitted with the reflection conditions of the space groups I4/m for Sr2FeMoO6
and Immm for Sr2FeWO6, respectively. The refined
occupancies of the Fe and Mo(W) sites shows that the ratios of Fe/Mo and Fe/W anti-site disorder are around 14﹪and 0.1﹪, respectively. Sánchez et al.17 proposed that the actual degree of order depends mainly on synthesis conditions. Therefore, an increase in order in Sr2FeWO6may be obtained with
increasing the synthesis temperature. The lattice parameters (a and c) and cell volume of the Sr2FeWO6 sample are significantly larger than that of
the Sr2FeMoO6 sample which is due to the radius of
the W5+ ions (0.62 Å ) is larger than that of the Mo5+ (0.61 Å ) ions.27 Furthermore, the Fe-O distances of Sr2FeWO6 (2.059 Å ) are large than those in
Sr2FeMoO6 (1.969 Å ). Additionally, W-O distance
(1.920 Å ) is shorter than those in Mo-O distance (1.973 Å ). Based on the unit cell data reported by Sánchez et al.17 The ordered sample FeO6 octahedral
is significantly larger (expanded) than MoO6
octahedral. This observation is coherent with the large ionic size of Fe3+ vs Mo5+.27 For the disordered sample the Fe-O and Mo-O bond lengths are more similar, as expected for the high degree of antisite disordering. Our results show the more disordered sample Sr2FeMoO6 (14 ﹪ anti-site disorder) have
similar Fe-O (1.969 Å )and Mo-O (1.973 Å ) bond lengths. Moreover, the more ordered sample Sr2FeWO6 (0.1﹪anti-site disorder) have significantly
larger FeO6 octahedral more than WO6 octahedral.
The results were consistent with the published results.17
The morphology of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W)
with (a) Sr2FeMoO6and (b) Sr2FeWO6 are observed
with a SEM as shown in Figure 3. Sr2FeWO6
microcrystals (1200 ℃ ) are distribution high homogeneity morn than that of Sr2FeMoO6 (1000
℃). This seems to indicate that the increasing the
synthesis temperature can help the grain growth during the sintering process. It also shows the shape and size of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) about the range
2~3 ìm.
Figures 4 (a) and 4 (b) show a typical ED pattern and HRTEM lattice image, respectively, recorded along the [100] zone-axis direction of Sr2FeWO6. The
simulated pattern along zone axis [100] is shown in Figure 5 (c). The cell symmetry obtained by ED was identified by the observation only of h k l; h + k + l = 2 n reflections indicating I-centering of the unit cell which is consistent with the XRD refinement result.
The temperature dependence of high-field (H = 5 T) magnetization of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) was
shown in Figure 5 (a). Magnetic measurements indicate an antiferromagnetic ordering for Sr2FeWO6
and ferromagnetic ordering for Sr2FeMoO6. Figure 5
(b) shows magnetic hysteretic curves recorded of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) at T = 5 K. For the reason
clarity, we only display the region of 1 T ≥ H ≥-1 T. The magnetization curves measured at 5 K show no appreciable hysteresis for Sr2FeWO6. Moreover, it
also shows the hysteresis loop below 1 T for Sr2FeMoO6 in Figure 5 (b), consistent with the
ferromagnetic behavior mentioned above.
In the case of Sr2FeWO6, this corresponds to the
) 2 ( 2 2 O B B O A A r r r r r r t + + + + = ′ ′
antiferromagnetic transition (TN), and TN ~35 K
(Figure 6) in good agreement with a report of 37 K.10 As shown in Figure 6, the Curie-Weiss plot for Sr2FeWO6 gives Curie constant C = 6.08 and Weiss
temperature è = -32.6 K. The small and negative value of è suggests that although there exists both
weak ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic
interactions at low temperature. The
antiferromagnetic interaction dominates over the weak ferromagnetic one. This point will be discussed later in detail.
Figure 7 shows the (a) zero-field cooled (ZFC) and (b) field cooled (FC) magnetic susceptibility (÷) vs. temperature of Sr2FeWO6 measured with the
applied field H =0.1, 0.5, 1, 3 and 5 T, respectively. The magnetic interactions are predominantly antiferromagnetic. At ~25 K there is a smaller feature which likely the result of a spin-reordering process on the magnetic sublattice. Furthermore, the presence of a spontaneous spin-reordering process is further emphasized by the magnetic measurement exhibited by the ZFC and FC curves; below the transition temperature (25 K), the ZFC and FC curves show large deviations. With increasing field, the transition is gradually masked. This seems to indicate that the presence of a weak ferromagnetic moment which can be ascribed to moment canting on the sublattices. Magnetic hysteresis curves obtained at 5 K are shown in Figure 6 (b) demonstrates the existence of a weak ferromagnetic response additionally indicating that the predominant character of the response is linear in field. This behavior was consistent with the published results.28,29
The transport properties of Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo,
W) samples are illustrated in Figure 8. Both ñ(H = 0T), ñ(H = 1 T) and ñ(H = 3T) show a half-metallic behavior over the whole temperature range down to 5 K for Sr2FeMoO6 and an insulator behavior over the
whole temperature range down to around 170 K for Sr2FeWO6. Plots of magnetoresistance (MR) against
temperature for Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) are also
given in the inset of Fig. 8. The MR ratio is define by MR (T,H) = [ñ (T,H = 0) - ñ (T,H = 3 T)]/ ñ (T,H = 3 T)] where H denotes the external field. The large MR ratio of ~22﹪(H = 3 T) at room temperature (RT) was observed in the Sr2FeWO6 compound. However,
the Sr2FeMoO6 compound did not show any
significant MR even at high fields and RT (MR ~ 1﹪; H = 3 T and 300 K).
Information about the effective oxidation states of Fe and the local structural distortions around these ions is provided by X-ray absorption spectroscopic (XAS) investigations. Specifically the chemical shift of an atomic absorption edge to high energy, with increasing formal oxidation state of that atom, is the simplest and most commonly used XAS valence indicator. Figure 9 shows the Fe L2,3-edge XANES
spectra of Sr2FeMoO6 and Sr2FeWO6 along with the
FeO, Fe3O4 and Fe2O3 standards. The main spectral
features of the L2,3 edge of Fe originate from dipole
transitions from the core Fe 2p level to the empty Fe 3d states.30,31 The spectra show two broad multiplet structures separated by spin–orbit splitting of Fe 2p3/2
(L3 edge; 705 ∼ 715 eV) and Fe 2p1/2 (L2 edge; 715 ∼
725 eV). Both the edges, L3 and L2, are further
divided into two peaks. The splitting and intensity ratio between the two peaks is determined by the interplay of crystal-field effects and electronic interactions. The L3 absorption edge of Fe
II
species in an octahedral crystal field typically exhibits a main peak at a lower energy (∼708 eV), followed by a weaker peak or a shoulder at a higher energy (∼710 eV). Based on the chemical shift, both the Sr2FeMoO6 and Sr2FeWO6 of Fe valence is much
greater than 2+ but less than 3+. The average valence for Fe has also been found to be intermediate between high-spin configurations values of Fe2+ and Fe3+ from MÖssbauer spectroscopy studies.8,32
Moreover, the Fe valence of Sr2FeMoO6is slightly
lower that that of Sr2FeWO6 as compared to the
relative intensity at the energy of 708 eV and 710 eV, respectively.13 This phenomenon may be correlated to the anti-site effect of the titled compounds.
To discuss the different transport properties between the Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) samples, we
use the full-potential augmented plane-wave (FLAPW) method to do the band structure calculations. The calculations were based on the Rietveld refined models of Sr2FeMoO6with the
tetragonal unit cell and Sr2FeWO6 with the
orthorhombic unit cell. The density of states obtained by this calculation is shown in Figure 10 (a) for Sr2FeMoO6 and (b)(c)for Sr2FeWO6. The predicted
electronic features for Sr2FeMoO6 and
Sr2FeWO6resembles those calculated by Kobayashi
et al.3 and Fang et al.6 Based on the above descriptions, the fundamental question is why the W case so different from the Mo case despite the fact that W is 5d analogue of Mo in the row of the Periodic Table? Fang et al.6 proposed that the p-d hybridization between oxygen and M (Mo, W) to the main source of this different. Because the 5d orbital of W is more extended than the 4d orbital of Mo, the stronger 2p(O)-5d(W) hybridization pushes the 5d band, which is the p-d antibonding state, higher in energy. Therefore the Sr2FeWO6 band gap opens up
and the electron transfer will not occur. Our band structure calculations as shown in Figure 10 are consistent with the published results6 and show that the p-d bonding counter part in the energy position of the spin-up t2g bands is clearly deeper for Sr2FeWO6
than that of Sr2FeMoO6.
五、結論
In order to investigated the interaction among 3d(Fe)、4d(Mo) and 5d(W) orbitals of transition metal ions via oxygen ions. The crystal structure, magnetic and magnetotransport properties of B -site transition metal Sr2FeMO6 (M = Mo, W) with double
perovskites structure have been investigated systematically. Powder X-ray diffraction analyses
revealed that Sr2FeMoO6 and Sr2FeWO6 have the
tetragonal cell (space group: I4/m) and the orthorhombic cell (space group: Immm), respectively.
The Curie-Weiss fit for Sr2FeWO6 gives Curie
constant C = 6.08 and Weiss temperature è = -32.6 K. The small and negative value of è suggests that although there exists both weak ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions at low temperature. The properties of these two compounds are summarized as follows: Sr2FeMoO6 - half-metallic
and ferromagnetic; Sr2FeWO6 - insulator and
antiferromagnetic. The changes observed by physical measurements are supported by FLAPW band structure calculations to explain the interaction between the 3d(Fe)、4d(Mo) and 5d(W) orbitals of transition metal ions and oxygen ions. The p-d bonding counter part in the energy position of the spin-up t2g bands is deeper for SFWO than that of
SFMO.
