    Giant elastocaloric effect at low temperatures in TmVO 4 and implications for cryogenic cooling

    by Mark P. Zic, Matthias S. Ikeda, Pierre Massat, Patrick M. Hollister, Linda Ye, Elliott W. Rosenberg, Joshua A. W. Straquadine, Yuntian Li, B. J. Ramshaw, Ian R. Fisher

    Adiabatic decompression of paraquadrupolar materials has significant potential as a cryogenic cooling technology. We focus on TmVO 4 , an archetypal material that undergoes a continuous phase transition to a ferroquadrupole-ordered state at 2.15 K. Above the phase transition, each Tm ion contributes an entropy of k B ln 2 due to the degeneracy of the crystal electric field groundstate. Owing to the large magnetoelastic coupling, which is a prerequisite for a material to undergo a phase transition via the cooperative Jahn–Teller effect, this level splitting, and hence the entropy, can be readily tuned by externally induced strain. Using a dynamic technique in which the strain is rapidly oscillated, we measure the adiabatic elastocaloric response of single-crystal TmVO 4 , and thus experimentally obtain the entropy landscape as a function of strain and temperature. The measurement confirms the suitability of this class of materials for cryogenic cooling applications and provides insight into the dynamic quadrupole strain susceptibility.

    The nematic susceptibility of the ferroquadrupolar metal TmAg2 measured via the elastocaloric effect

    by Elliott W. Rosenberg, Matthias Ikeda, Ian R. Fisher

    Elastocaloric measurements of the ferroquadrupolar/nematic rare-earth intermetallic TmAg2 are presented. TmAg2 undergoes a cooperative Jahn-Teller-like ferroquadrupolar phase transition at 5K, in which the Tm3+ ion’s local 4f electronic ground state doublet spontaneously splits and develops an electric quadrupole moment which breaks the rotational symmetry of the tetragonal lattice. The elastocaloric effect, which is the temperature change in the sample induced by adiabatic strains the sample experiences, is sensitive to quadrupolar fluctuations in the paranematic phase which couple to the induced strain. We show that elastocaloric measurements of this material reveal a Curie-Weiss like nematic susceptibility with a Weiss temperature of T* ≈ 2.7K, in agreement with previous elastic constant measurements. Furthermore, we establish that a magnetic field along the c-axis acts as an effective transverse field for the quadrupole moments.


  • Uniaxial ferromagnetism in the kagome metal TbV6Sn6

    by Elliott Rosenberg, Jonathan M. DeStefano, Yucheng Guo, Ji Seop Oh, Makoto Hashimoto, Donghui Lu, Robert J. Birgeneau, Yongbin Lee, Liqin Ke, Ming Yi, et al.

    The synthesis and characterization of the vanadium-based kagome metal TbV6Sn6 is presented. X-ray measurements confirm that this material forms with the same crystal structure type as the recently investigated kagome metals GdV6Sn6 and YV6Sn6, with space group symmetry P6/mmm. A signature of a phase transition at 4.1 K is observed in heat capacity, resistivity, and magnetic susceptibility measurements, and both resistivity and magnetization measurements exhibit hysteresis in magnetic field. Furthermore, a strikingly large anisotropy in the magnetic susceptibility was observed, with the c-axis susceptibility roughly 75 times the ab plane susceptibility at 5 K. This is highly suggestive of uniaxial ferromagnetism, and the large size of 9.4μb/f.u. indicates the Tb3+4f electronic moments cooperatively align perpendicular to the V kagome lattice plane. The entropy at the phase transition is nearly R ln(2), indicating that the crystalline electric field ground state of the Tb3+ ion is a doublet, and therefore the sublattice of 4f electrons in this material can be shown to map at low temperatures to the Ising model in a D6h symmetry environment. Hall measurements at temperatures from 300 to 1.7 K can be described by two-band carrier transport at temperatures below around 150 K, with a large increase in both hole and electron mobilities, similar to YV6Sn6, and an anomalous Hall effect is seen below the ordering temperature. Angle-resolved photoemission measurements above the magnetic ordering temperature reveal typical kagome dispersions. Our study presents TbV6Sn6 as an interesting system where Ising ferromagnetism coexists with nontrivial electronic states emerging from a kagome lattice.
