The spatial charge arrangement of a typical quasi-two-dimensional organic conductor α-(BEDT-TTF) 2 I 3 is revealed by single crystal structure analysis using synchrotron radiation. results show that the horizontal-stripe-type structure, which was suggested mean field theory, established. We also find disproportionation above metal–insulator transition temperature and significant change in transfer integrals caused phase transition.

Antiferroquadrupolar (AFQ) ordering has been conjectured in several rare-earth compounds to explain their anomalous magnetic properties. No direct evidence for AFQ ordering, however, reported. Using the resonant x-ray scattering technique near Dy L(III) absorption edge, we have succeeded observing order parameter DyB2C2 and analyzing energy polarization dependence. The much weaker coupling between orbital degrees of freedom lattice 4f electron systems than 3d makes them an ideal platform...
We report on structural, magnetic, and magnetoelectric (ME) properties of a U-type hexaferrite Sr4Co2Fe36O60 prepared by solid state reaction. Samples sintered at 1150–1180 °C in oxygen contain the fewest impurity phases show highly insulating behavior. Powder neutron diffraction results reveal that commensurate magnetic order with (0,0,3/2) propagation vector develops below TN2∼350 K. Corresponding to appearance order, sample shows small ME effect. These suggest is room-temperature material...

The RXS is 2 p →5 d dipole transition energy Ce L 3 -edge. Using this technique to observe pure AFQ state, phase diagram Phase II determined.
Synchrotron x-ray-diffraction experiments have been carried out in a perovskite-type vanadium oxide ${\mathrm{YVO}}_{3}$ to elucidate orbital ordering of the system. The change from C- G-type at lower magnetic transition temperature was strongly suggested. long-range appears also high-temperature paramagnetic phase. Azimuthal-angle dependence superlattice reflections indicates that for both orbital-ordering phases occupation is approximately ${d}_{\mathrm{xy}}^{1}{d}_{\mathrm{yz}}^{1}$ and...
In order to clarify its electric double layer (EDL) structure under external voltage, an interface between the ionic liquid N,N-diethyl-N-methyl-N-(2-methoxyethyl)ammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and a Au (111) surface was studied by x-ray reflectometry.

Using a surface x-ray diffraction technique, we investigated the atomic structure of two types interfaces between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3, that is, p-type (SrO/AlO2) n-type (TiO2/LaO) interfaces. Our results demonstrate SrTiO3 in sample with interface has large polarized region, while limited region. In addition, intermixing was observed to extend deeper into substrate at compared p type. These differences result distinct degrees band bending, which likely contributes striking contrast electrical...

We studied the magnetic and magnetoelectric properties of Ba2-xSrxNi2Fe12O22 single crystals over a wide composition range (0 ≤ x 1.5). All show ferrimagnetic order at around 660 K. While Sr-free crystal is simply down to lowest temperature, transition from into screw ordered state was observed temperatures below 300 K in Sr-substituted crystals. The temperature monotonically increases with increasing Sr content, meaning that stabilized by Sr-substitution. By applying field perpendicular...
The orbitally ordered state of ${\mathrm{YTiO}}_{3}$ has been investigated utilizing resonant x-ray scattering (RXS) near the Ti K-edge. RXS intensities have observed at $1\stackrel{\ensuremath{\rightarrow}}{s}4p$ dipole transition energy (the main edge). atomic tensor ion quantitatively determined by measurements azimuthal angle and polarization dependence signal several vectors.

Significance The quantum spin liquid state has been intensively pursued since Anderson proposed the resonating valence bond model. On other hand, liquids based on another electronic degree of freedom, orbital, believed unrealistic, because energy scale orbital correlation is normally one order magnitude higher than exchange coupling, resulting in an ordering at a signicantly high temperature accompanied by cooperative Jahn−Teller (JT) distortion. In this paper, we present striking complete...
