X-ray scattering study of the incommensurate phase in Mg-doped CuGeO3 |
Authors: | Christianson, R. J.; Wang, Y. J.; LaMarra, S. C.; Birgeneau, R. J.; Kiryukhin, V.; Masuda, T.; Tsukada, I.; Uchinokura, K.; Keimer, B. | Language: | English | Date of Publication (YYYY-MM-DD): | 2002 | Title of Journal: | Physical Review B | Volume: | 66 | Issue / Number: | 17 | Sequence Number of Article: | 174105 | Review Status: | Peer-review | Audience: | Not Specified | Abstract / Description: | We present results of a systematic x-ray scattering study of
the effects of Mg doping on the high-field incommensurate phase
of CuGeO3. Lorentzian-squared line shapes, the changing of the
first-order transition to second order, and the destruction of
long-range order with infinitesimal doping are observed,
consistent with random-field effects in a three-dimensional XY
system. Values for the soliton width in pure and lightly doped
CuGeO3 are deduced. We find that even a very small doping has a
drastic effect on the shape of the lattice modulation. | External Publication Status: | published | Document Type: | Article |
