説明:

The Cr4+ oxidation state with two electrons in the Cr 3d shell is not often observed in perovskite-type oxides, as high pressures and temperatures are generally required to stabilize the octahedral coordination. Herein, we present a comparative study of the novel half-doped perovskite-type chromites Gd0.5Sr0.5CrO3 (GSCO) and Gd0.5Ca0.5CrO3 (GCCO). Fifty percent of the Cr occurs in the Cr4+ oxidation state following high-pressure synthesis at 6 GPa and 1200 °C. The materials were investigated using synchrotron X-ray diffraction, magnetization, heat capacity, and dielectric measurements. The diffraction patterns show that GSCO and GCCO crystallize in orthorhombic (Pbnm) structures with different degrees of local lattice distortion. GSCO exhibits a long-range magnetic order at temperatures of <98 K, accompanied by magnetization reversal, suggesting that the magnetic ground state is ferrimagnetic. In contrast, GCCO displays antiferromagnetic characters at temperatures below approximately 100 K. In addition, GSCO exhibits a crossover between conventional and inverse exchange bias effects at low temperatures (<50 K). This is likely caused by asymmetric exchange Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions between the Cr ions of different valences (+3 and +4). Furthermore, significant magnetoelectric coupling at the onset of the magnetic order is supported by temperature-dependent dielectric measurements.
