Successive transitions in Ca5Ir3O12 revealed by 193Ir synchrotron-radiation-based Mössbauer spectroscopy
摘要
We have conduct 193Ir synchrotron-radiation-based Mössbauer spectroscopy of Ca5Ir3O12 at various temperatures. Thanks to availability for 193Ir Mössbauer spectroscopy in wide temperature range, we revealed successive transitions at 105 and 7.8 K in Ca5Ir3O12 on microscopic viewpoints. The transition at 105 K involved a change in the Ir valence states. The combination of 193Ir Mössbauer spectroscopy and neutron diffraction experiments reveals that the transition at 7.8 K is magnetic despite of absence of magnetic dipoles. Furthermore, ab initio calculation provides crucial insight into hyperfine interactions at 193Ir nuclei.
