摘要
在压力大于 14 GPa 的双层 La3Ni2O7 中发现 80 K 超导电性为研究一类新型高温超导体提供了一个独特的机会。因此,继 Sr3Ni2O7 的经典 (T4+) Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) 系列之后的其他双层镍酸盐将是一个有趣的新候选材料。在这项研究中,我们通过晶体的浮区生长,研究了 Sr3Ni2-xAlxO7-δ 中 RP n = 2 相的稳定问题。通过粉末和单晶 XRD,我们研究了 RP 型相的稳定范围。我们的热重分析(TGA)、X 射线光电子能谱(XPS)和气体萃取研究显示,Ni4+ 的氧化态非常高,并通过来自 Al 的化学应变而得到稳定。获得的黑色晶体在传输过程中是绝缘的,并在 12 K 左右出现磁转变。
Realization of a classical Ruddlesden Popper type bilayer nickelate in Sr3Ni2−xAlxO7−δ with unusual Ni4+
The discovery of 80 K superconductivity in bilayer La3Ni2O7 at pressures greater than 14 GPa presents a unique opportunity to study a novel class of high-temperature superconductors. Therefore, other bilayer nickelates following the classical (T4+) Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) series of Sr3Ni2O7 would present an interesting new candidate. In this work, we study the stabilization of RP n = 2 phase in Sr3Ni2−xAlxO7−δ, via floating zone growth of crystals. With powder and single-crystal XRD, we study the stability range of the RP-type phase. Our Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and gas extraction studies reveal a remarkably high oxidation state of Ni4+ stabilized by chemical strain from Al. The obtained black crystals are insulating in transport and show a magnetic transition around 12 K.
