1 Complementarity: muons and neutrons Sue Kilcoyne Salford M5 4WT
2 What can neutrons tell us? Neutrons: have wavelengths comparable to interatomic spacings ( Å) have energies comparable to structural and magnetic excitations ( mev) are scattered with a strength that varies randomly from element to element (and isotope to isotope) have a magnetic spin are deeply penetrating (bulk samples can be studied) interact only weakly with matter (so the theory is easy!) Neutron scattering is therefore an ideal probe of atomic and magnetic structures and excitations

6 Complementarity or competition? The neutron is a uniquely sensitive microscopic probe of the magnetic properties of materials The muon is a uniquely sensitive microscopic probe of the magnetic properties of materials neutrons + muons = new insights > 2 µsr offers a time window sufficiently wide for studies of fast itinerant electron spin fluctuations through to slow distributed spin relaxation in spin glasses..and μsr is sufficiently sensitive for ultra-small magnetic moments (~10-3 μ B ) and nuclear moments to be detected Neutron scattering Mossbauer μsr ac susceptibilty remanence log (relaxation time),s
7 Complementarity: Part I Slow Dynamics
8 Glassy relaxation The deepest and most interesting unsolved problem in solid state theory is probably the theory of the nature of glass and the glass transition P W Anderson Science 267 (1995) and spin glasses are excellent model systems to study the glass transition Random exchange leads to a random freezing of spin at the socalled glass temperature
9 Dilute Spin Glasses: NSE and MuSR Uemura et al, Phys.Rev.B 31 (1985) 546
10 Stretched-exponential relaxation Our first μsr measurements of a canonical spin glass (AgMn) gave a muon spin relaxation function of the form P (t) = a z o G z (t) = a o exp( ( λt) β ) with λ=2γ m2 <B i2 >τ λ diverges at the glass transition T g, whilst β decreases from 1 at 4T g to 1/3 at T g Stretched exponential relaxation in μsr is now widely accepted as an clear indicator of glassy dynamics Campbell, Cywinski, Kilcoyne et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 72 (1994) 1291
11 Kohlrausch relaxation First observed in 1854, stretched exponential or Kohrausch relaxation is variously attributed to: A distribution of relaxation rates Hierarchical relaxation Palmer et al, PRL 53 (1984) 958 Random walk on an n-dimensional hypercube Campbell et al, Physica A 230 (1996) 554 Non-extensive entropy Pickup, Cywinski et al Physica B 397 (2007), 99 β may be either temperature dependent (approaching 1/3 at T g ) or temperature independent
12 A distribution of relaxation rates In general any statistical distribution of independent (parallel) relaxation channels will lead to a stretched exponential: G(t) = w(λ)exp( -tλ)dλ exp( ( λt) As the distribution broadens β decreases from unity to 1/3 as shown on the right for a truncated log-normal w(τ) β ) β ln(δτ/τ ο ) Warning: the sum of even just two or three discrete exponential relaxations can give an apparent stretched exponential

23 A quantitative comparison... The muon relaxation rate λ can be related directly to the parameters measured by inelastic neutron scattering: G k B T χ ( q ) λ = N Γ ( q ) q where Γ(q) is the inelastic scattering linewidth, and χ(q) the susceptibility For many itinerant antiferromagnets the q-dependence of Γ is weak: G k χ L λ = B T Γ where χ = 1 χ L (q) is the local susceptibility N λ = q The neutron linewidth Γ can be compared directly with λ obtained from μsr via G k T B χ Γ with the coupling constant G as the only free parameter L Rainford in Muon Science eds Lee, Kilcoyne and Cywinski, 1999
24 A quantitative comparison with µsr For Y(Mn 0.9 Al 0.1 ) 2 Γ is Arrhenius-like: Γ( T) = Γ o exp( Ea kb T) while χ L follows a Curie law: χ L (T) = C (T + θ) with E a /k B T = 280K and θ =93K We can therefore fit the expression ct λ(t) = (T + θ)exp( E / kt) with c as the only free parameter to the muon data a Y(MnAl) 2 Neutron and muon data are in excellent agreement but while each muon spectrum takes 20min to collect, each neutron spectrum takes 12 hours Cywinski, Physica B 350 (2004) 17

32 Magnetic volume fractions; URu 2 Si 2 m 2 (µ B ) 2 Neutron diffraction shows the U moment in URu 2 Si 2 decreasing in magnitude as pressure is increased µsr shows that this decrease is associated with a reduced antiferromagnetic volume fraction There is phase separation into magnetic and non-magnetic regions only a combined neutron + μsr study could reveal this

34 Magnetic order in ReNiO 3 compounds Above the MI transition there is a single paramagnetic muon site: Gz(t) = a0exp ( λt) Below the MI transition there are two equally populated but inequivalent muon sites, one magnetically ordered, the other disordered. Model 1 must be correct Garcia-Munoz, Lacorre, Cywinski PRB51 (1995) 15197
35 A cautionary tale: Ni 3 Al Ni The general consensus from neutron and other studies is that Ni 3 Al orders ferromagnetically at at 40K, with a Ni moment of ~0.076μ B and T c =40K Al Ni 3 Al - space group Pm3m L1 2 (Cu 3 Au) structure a 0 =0.356nm Dhar et al, PRB 40 (1989) 11488
36 Ni 3 Al - high temperature muon spectra At high temperature, the zf spectra are well described by B=2mT aog z(t) = a (1 3 σ 2 t 2 )e ( σ 2 2 with σ=0.15 ms -1 t 2 + and any contribution from atomic spin fluctuations is entirely motionally narrowed a b Asymmetry Ni 3 Al T=250K Time (μs) σ is consistent with the muon sitting at 1/2,1/2,1/2 in the cell B=1mT B=0
37 Ni 3 Al - low temperature spectra The atomic spin contribution to the μsr spectra remains motionally narrowed down to 40K Below 40K there are two contributions to the spectra 1 2 aog z(t) = am + (1 3 3 a G (t) nm zkt β ( ( λt ) ( λt) )e a m and a nm refer to the magnetic and nonmagnetic components respectively, and G zkt (t) = + (1 σ t )e β β 2 2 ( σ t 2 Asymmetry Time (μs) 11K 20K 29K 47K 32K
38 Ni 3 Al: Conclusions from µsr The magnetic contribution below 40K takes the form of a Voigtian Kubo- Toyabe function Crook and Cywinski J Phys Cond Matt 9 (1997) 1149 Asymmetry, a m p g T c =40K The asymmetry, a m, muon relaxation rate λ and exponent β all increase below the reported Curie temperature of T c =40K There is no evidence of long range ferromagnetic order in Ni 3 Al, but rather of an inhomogenous and relatively static magnetic ground state. But this is because the muon sits at a site of high symmetry and is insensitive to long range ferromagnetic order!!

39 Summary Neutrons and muons together often give more information than either technique alone - even in crystallographic studies Muons can provide crucial insights very quickly, often providing justification for a detailed and lengthy neutron experiment Where neutron and muon results disagree, there may be new physics at play
