1 Polarized Neutrons Intro and Techniques Ross Stewart
2 Polarized neutron beams Each individual neutron has spin s=½ and an angular momentum of ±½ħ Each neutron has a spin vector and we define the polarization of a neutron beam as the ensemble average over all the neutron spin vectors, normalised to their modulus If we apply an external field (quantisation axis) then there are only two possible orientations of the neutrons: parallel and anti-parallel to the field. The polarization can then be expressed as a scalar: +½ħ B Spin-up "i -½ħ Spin-down #i where there are N + neutrons with spin-up and N - neutrons with spin-down

7 Polarized neutron beams What we often would like to do in polarized neutron experiments is measure the scalar polarization of the beam. Where F = N + N scattering experiment P = N + N N + N ( ) 1 ( ) +1 = N + /N N + /N = F 1 F +1 is called the Flipping Ratio and is a measurable quantity in a This description of a polarized beam is OK for experiments in which a single quantisation axis is defined: Longitudinal Polarization Analysis The technique of 3-dimensional neutron polarimetry, however is termed: Vector (or Spherical) Polarization Analysis

15 Uniaxial Polarization Analysis
16 Neutron polarization and scattering We start with the (elastic - k i = k f ) scattering cross-section dσ dω = m n 2π 2 Where the spin-state of the neutron S is either spin-up k ʹ S ʹ V ks 2 = 1 0 or spin down = 0 1 For nuclear scattering (no spin) V is the Fermi pseudopotential, and the matrix element is ʹ S b S = b ʹ S S = b 0 Non-spin-flip Spin-flip where we have used the fact that the spin states are orthogonal and normalised = = 0, = =1
17 Neutron polarization and magnetic scattering V is the magnetic scattering potential given by V m (Q) = γ r n 0 σ M (Q) = γ r n 0 σ ζ M ζ (Q) 2µ B 2µ B ζ (see e.g. Squires) where ζ = x, y, z. Here M (Q) represents the component of the Fourier transform of the magnetisation of the sample, which is perpendicular to the scattering vector Q - i.e. the neutron sensitive part. σ ζ are the Pauli spin matrices σ x = 0 1, σ 1 0 y = 0 i, σ i 0 z = Substitution of these into the magnetic potential gives us the matrix elements S ʹ V m (Q) S = γ nr 0 2µ B M z (Q) M z (Q) M x (Q) im y (Q) M x (Q) + im y (Q) Non-spin-flip Spin-flip
18 Magnetic scattering rule The non-spin-flip scattering is sensitive only to those components of the magnetisation parallel to the neutron spin The spin-flip scattering is sensitive only to those components of the magnetisation perpendicular to the neutron spin NB This is one of those points that you should take away with you. It is the basis of all magnetic polarization analysis techniques
19 Neutron polarization and nuclear scattering In general a bound state is formed between the nucleus and the neutron during scattering with either spins antiparallel (spin-singlet) or spins parallel (spin-triplet). The scattering lengths for these situations are different and are termed b - and b +. The scattering length operator is ˆ b = A + Bσ I A = (I +1)b + + Ib 2I +1, B = b + b 2I +1 (see e.g. Squires, p173) The calculation of the matrix elements now proceeds analogously to the case of magnetic scattering S ʹ b ˆ S = A + BI z A BI z B(I x ii y ) B(I x + ii y ) Since the nuclear spins are (normally) random Non-spin-flip Spin-flip I x = I y = I z = 0 b Therefore with the coherent scattering amplitude proportional to, we can write b = A i.e. the coherent scattering is entirely non-spin-flip
20 Moon-Riste-Koehler Equations Bringing all this together, we get = b γ nr 0 2µ B M z + BI z = b + γ n r 0 2µ B M z BI z = γ r n 0 ( M x im y ) + B( I x ii y ) 2µ B = γ r n 0 ( M x + im y ) + B( I x + ii y ) 2µ B Remember that: ~M? ( Q)= ~ ˆQ ~M( Q) ~ ˆQ = M( ~ Q) ~ Moon, Riste and Koehler (Phys Rev 181 (1969) 920) ~M( Q) ~ ˆQ ˆQ If the polarization is parallel to the scattering vector, then the magnetisation in the direction of the polarization will not be observed since the magnetic interaction vector is zero. i.e. all magnetic scattering will be spin-flip
21 Spin-incoherent scattering Now, let s take another look at the nuclear incoherent scattering. We know that this is given by b 2 b ( ) 2 Applying this to the b 2 = transition, and neglecting magnetic scattering, we get ( b + BI z ) 2 = ( b ) 2 + B 2 2 I z + 2 b BI z Now, for a randomly oriented distribution of nuclei of spin I, we have I = I(I +1) = I x 2 + I y 2 + I z 2 Therefore we can write I 2 x = I 2 y = I 2 z = 1 I(I +1) 3 since the distribution is isotropic b 2 ( b ) 2 = ( b ) 2 ( b ) B2 I(I +1) Isotope incoherent scattering spin incoherent scattering The other transitions are dealt with in a similar way
22 Finally, we get Moon-Riste-Koehler II = b γ nr 0 2µ B M z + b II b SI = b + γ n r 0 2µ B M z + b II b SI = γ r n 0 ( M x im ) y + 2 2µ B 3 b SI = γ r n 0 ( M x + im ) y + 2 2µ B 3 b SI where b II = ( b ) 2 ( b ) 2 b SI = B 2 I(I +1) The details of the magnetic scattering will in general depend on the direction of the neutron polarization with respect to the scattering vector, and also on the nature of the orientation of the magnetic moments
23 Scientific Examples
24 Polarized magnetic diffraction For a ferromagnetic sample aligned in a field perpendicular to the scattering vector we have ~M? ( ~ Q)= ~ M( ~ Q) ~M( Q) ~ ˆQ ˆQ = M( ~ Q) ~ and M has no component in the xy-plane, so that the spin-flip scattering is zero. This implies that we don t need to analyse the neutron spin, it will always end up in the same direction it started in. Therefore dσ dω = [ F N (Q) F M (Q)] 2 dσ dω = [ F N (Q) + F M (Q)] 2 where for neutrons polarized parallel to the field for neutrons polarized antiparallel to the field i F N (Q) = b i exp(iq r i ) i F M (Q) = γ n r 0 g J i J i f i (Q)exp(iQ r i ) Notice that to simulate an unpolarized measurement, we simply average the two polarized cross sections dσ dω = 1 2 F (Q) F (Q) N M = F 2 N (Q) + F 2 M (Q) NB we have neglected incoherent scattering here [( ) 2 + ( F N (Q) + F M (Q)) 2 ]
25 Polarized magnetic diffraction Using a spin flipper to access these two polarized cross sections we can determine the flipping ratio, R, of a particular Bragg reflection: R = ( dσ dω) dσ dω [ = F (Q) + F (Q) N M ] 2 ( ) [ F N (Q) F M (Q)] = 1+ γ 2 1 γ with γ = F M (Q) F N (Q) 2 Ni So, for example, in the case of Ni we measure a flipping ratio of 1.7 at the (111) reflection and 1.1 at the (400) reflection After all the reflections have been measured, FM(Q) can be deduced (assuming careful measurements of FN(Q) have been taken - at low fields/high temps). Then FM(Q) can be inverse Fourier transformed to get the real-space magnetisation density

29 Polarization analysis - paramagnets It can be shown (see Squires p 179) that in the case of a fully disordered paramagnet these expressions reduce to dσ dω dσ dω ζ NSF ζ SF = 1 3 = 1 3 γr 0 2 γr g 2 f 2 (Q)J(J +1) 1 P ˆ Q ˆ ( ) 2 g 2 f 2 (Q)J(J +1) 1+ P ˆ Q ˆ ( ) 2 where we have replaced the z-direction with the general direction ζ = x, y, or z Therefore, the scalar polarization becomes is given by h1 ( ˆP ˆQ) 2 i h1+(ˆp ˆQ) 2 i P = h1 ( ˆP ˆQ) 2 i + h1+(ˆp ˆQ) 2 i This is easily simplified to give the Halpern-Johnson Equation P 0 = ˆQ (P ˆQ) first derived in 1939, and valid for all paramagnetic and disordered magnets
30 Halpern-Johnson Equation P 0 = ˆQ (P ˆQ) where P` is the scattered polarization direction and P is the incident polarization direction We can immediately see that setting the polarization direction along the scattering vector has the desired effect of rendering all the magnetic scattering in the spin-flip cross-section. Now we suppose that we have a multi-detector in the x-y plane. In this case the unit scattering vector is z cosα where α is the angle between ˆ Q = sinα Q and an arbitrary x-axis 0 - the Schärpf angle α x y Q
31 The Schärpf Equations Substituting this unit scattering vector into the Halpern-Johnson Equation, and directing P in three orthogonal directions, x, y and z, leads to six cross sections (3 non-spin flip and 3 spinflip) Including the nuclear coherent, isotope incoherent and spin-incoherent terms we have dσ dω dσ dω dσ dω dσ dω NSF X SF X NSF Y dσ dω dσ dω SF Y NSF Z SF Z = 1 2 sin2 α dσ dω Schärpf and Capellmann Phys Stat Sol A135 (1993) 359 mag + 1 dσ 3 dω SI + dσ dω = 1 ( 2 cos2 α +1) dσ + 2 dσ dω mag 3 dω SI = 1 2 cos2 α dσ + 1 dσ + dσ dω 3 dω dω = 1 2 sin2 α +1 mag dω ( ) dσ = 1 dσ 2 dω = 1 dσ 2 dω mag mag mag + 1 dσ 3 dω + 2 dσ 3 dω SI + 2 dσ 3 dω SI SI SI + dσ dω nuc +II nuc +II nuc +II x-direction y-direction z-direction

34 Polarized magnetic diffraction - powders A difference map between parallel and antiparallel cross-sections leaves the nuclear-magnetic interference term d d = d d * d d + =4F N (Q)F M (Q)) In the case of ferrimagnets, where some Bragg reflections are due to entirely one sublattice, this can lead to positive and negative peaks in the difference pattern.
