We report on the temperature dependent Raman spectroscopic studies of orthorombic distorted perovskite YCrO3 in the temperature range of 20-300K. Temperature dependence of DC-magnetization measurement under field cooled and zero field cooled modes confirmed the transition temperature (TN ~142K) and anomalous characteristic temperature (T* ~60K), above which magnetization tends to saturate. Magnetization isotherm recorded below TN at 125K shows clear loop opening without magnetization saturation up to 20kOe, indicating the coexistence of antiferromagnetic (AFM) interaction with weak ferromagnetic (WFM) phase. Mean field calculation for exchange constants further confirms the complex magnetic phase below TN. Temperature evolution of lineshape parameters of selected modes (associated with the octahedral rotation and A-shift in the unit cell) revealed anomalous phonon shift near Cr3+ magnetic ordering temperature (TN ~142K). Additional phonon anomaly was identified at T* ~60K in agreement with the magnetization results and reflects the change in spin dynamics, plausibly due to the change in Cr-spin configuration. Moreover, the positive and negative shift in Raman frequency below TN revel the existence of competing WFM and AFM exchanges. The phonon shift of B3g (3)-octahedral rotation mode fairly scaled with the square of sublattice magnetization from TN to T*, below which it start to depart from theconventional behaviour and need further attention. This correlation between magnetic and Raman data elucidate the spin-phonon coupling owing to the multiferroic phenomenon in YCrO3.
The ZrSiS family of compounds hosts various exotic quantum phenomena due to the presence of both topological nonsymmorphic Dirac fermions and nodal-line fermions. In this material family, the LnSbTe (Ln= lanthanide) compounds are particularly interes
Thin films of topological insulator Bi_2Se_3 were deposited directly on insulating ferromagnetic EuS. Unusual negative magnetoresistance was observed near the zero field below the Curie temperature (T_C), resembling the weak localization effect; wher
Using a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and spin-wave theory methods, we investigate the magnetic interactions and spin excitations in semiconducting VI$_3$. Exchange parameters of monolayer, bilayer, and bulk forms are evaluated by ma
Antiferromagnets (AFMs) with zero net magnetization are proposed as active elements in future spintronic devices. Depending on the critical thickness of the AFM thin films and the measurement temperature, bimetallic Mn-based alloys and transition met
Quantum corrections to electrical resistance can serve as sensitive probes of the magnetic landscape of a material. For example, interference between time-reversed electron paths gives rise to weak localization effects, which can provide information
