Unusually large magnetic moment and tricritical behavior of the CMR compound NaCr2O4 revealed with high resolution neutron diffraction and μ+SR
Abstract
The mixed valence Cr3+/Cr4+ compound NaCr2O4, hosts a plethora of unconventional electronic properties. In the present study, muon spin rotation/relaxation (μ+SR) and high-resolution time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction measurements were carried out on high-quality samples to clarify the complex magnetic ground state of this unique material. We identified a commensurate canted antiferromagnetic order (C-AFM) with a canting angle of the Cr spin axial vector equal to θc = (8.8 ± 0.5)◦, and an estimated Cr moment μCr ∼ (4.30 ± 0.01)μB. Such an unusually large value of μCr is compatible with the existence of high-spin Cr sites created by the presence of an unconventional negative charge transfer state in NaCr2O4. In addition to the C-AFM structure, a novel magnetic supercell was also revealed. Such supercell display an incommensurate (IC)-AFM propagation vector (0 0 21 −δ), having a Cr moment μIC = (2.20 ± 0.03)μB. It is suggested that the C-AFM and IC-AFM modulations have two Cr different electronic origins, being due to itinerant and localized contributions to the magnetic moment respectively. Finally, the direct measurement of the magnetic order parameter for the C-AFM structure provided a value of the critical exponent β = 0.245 ≈ 14 , suggesting a non conventional critical behavior for the magnetic phase transition in NaCr2O4.
