- We report a muon spin rotation (μ+SR) study of the magnetic properties of the double perovskite compound LaSrNiReO6. Using the unique length and time scales of the μ+SR technique, we successfully clarify the magnetic ground state of LaSrNiReO6, which was previously deemed as a spin glass state. Instead, our μ+SR results point toward a long-range dynamically ordered ground state below TC=23 K, for which a static limit is foreseen at T=0. Furthermore, between 23K250 K) state. Our results reveal how two separate yet intertwined magnetic lattices interact within the unique double perovskite structure and the importance of using complementary experimental techniques to obtain a complete understanding of the microscopic magnetic properties of complex materials.

Revisiting the A-type antiferromagnet NaNiO2 with muon spin rotation measurements and density functional theory calculations

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- An A-type antiferromagnet, NaNiO2, was examined by means of positive muon spin rotation and relaxation (mu+SR) measurements and first-principles calculations based on a density functional theory (DFT). Below T-N = 20 K, a clear muon spin precession signal was observed in the mu+SR time spectrum recorded under zero field, due to the formation of a static internal magnetic field. The microscopic origin of such an internal field was computed as a sum of dipolar and hyperfine contact fields at the site (0.624, 0, 0.854), where both the muon site and the local spin density at such a site were predicted with DFT calculations. While the computed values were consistent with experimentally obtained ones, in both the antiferromagnetic and the paramagnetic states, the contribution of the hyperfine contact field was shown to be insignificant even below T-N. Finally, measurements at higher temperatures signified thermally activated Na-ion diffusion with E-a = 50(20) meV and D-Na(300K) = 8.8 x 10(-11) cm(2)/s, commonly observed in layered-type compounds.

- The internal magnetic field in a ferromagnetic compound, Y2Co12P7 with T C = 150 K, was studied with μ +SR using a powder sample down to 2 K. The wTF-μ +SR measurements revealed the presence of a sharp magnetic transition at T C = 151 K, and the ZF-μ +SR measurements clarified the formation of static magnetic order below T C. The presence of two muon spin precession signals in the ZF-μ +SR spectrum below T C indicates the existence of the two different muon sites in the lattice. By considering the muon sites and local spin densities at the muon sites predicted with DFT calculations, the ordered magnetic moments of Co were successfully determined.

- The internal magnetic field in a ferromagnetic compound, Y2Co12P7 with T-C = 150 K, was studied with mu(+) SR using a powder sample down to 2 K. The wTF-mu(+) SR measurements revealed the presence of a sharp magnetic transition at T-C = 151 K, and the ZF-mu(+) SR measurements clarified the formation of static magnetic order below T-C. The presence of two muon spin precession signals in the ZF-mu(+) SR spectrum below TC indicates the existence of the two different muon sites in the lattice. By considering the muon sites and local spin densities at the muon sites predicted with DFT calculations, the ordered magnetic moments of Co were successfully determined.

Influence of the magnetic sublattices in the double perovskite LaCaNiReO6

- The magnetism of double perovskites is a complex phenomenon, determined from intra- or interatomic magnetic moment interactions, and strongly influenced by geometry. We take advantage of the complementary length and timescales of the muon spin rotation, relaxation, and resonance (μ+SR) microscopic technique and bulk ac/dc magnetic susceptibility measurements to study the magnetic phases of the LaCaNiReO6 double perovskite. As a result, we are able to discern and report ferrimagnetic ordering below TC=102K and the formation of different magnetic domains above TC. Between TC270K. An evolution of the interaction between Ni and Re magnetic sublattices, in this geometrically frustrated fcc perovskite structure, is revealed as a function of temperature through the critical behavior and thermal evolution of microscopic and macroscopic physical quantities.

Magnetic phase diagram of Eu 1- x Ca x Co 2 P 2 determined using muon spin rotation and relaxation

- The present study investigated the magnetic nature of a solid solution system consisting of EuCo2P2 and CaCo2P2 using a muon spin rotation and relaxation (mu +SR) technique, which is sensitive to local magnetic environments. The former compound EuCo2P2 is known to enter an incommensurate helical antiferromagnetic (AF) phase below 66 K with neutrons, which was confirmed by the present mu +SR. The magnitude of the ordered Eu moments proposed with neutrons was found to be consistent with that estimated by mu +SR. Furthermore, the latter lattice-collapsed tetragonal phase compound CaCo2P2 is known to enter an A-type AF phase below 90 K, and mu +SR measurements on single crystals revealed the presence of a spin reorientation transition at around 40 K, below which the A-type AF order is likely to be completed. Although all Eu1-xCaxCo2P2 compounds were found to enter a magnetic phase at low temperatures regardless of x, a static ordered state was formed only at the vicinity of the two end compounds, i.e., 0 x 0.4 and 0.9 x 1. Instead, a disordered state, i.e., a random spin-glass state, short-range ordered state, or highly fluctuating state was found in the x range between 0.4 and 0.9, even at the lowest measured temperature (2 K). Together with the magnetization data, our findings clarified the magnetic phase diagram of Eu1-xCaxCo2P2, where a ferromagnetic exchange interaction between Co ions through the Eu2+ ion competes with a direct AF interaction among the Co ions, particularly in the x range between 0.57 and 0.9. This competition yielded multiple phases in Eu1-xCaxCo2P2.
