Significant Atomic Displacement at Isostructural Transition in Li0.99Cu0.01CrO2 and its Effects

Article Preview

Abstract:

LiCrO2 is a triangular lattice antiferromagnetic compound exhibiting geometrically frustrated two dimensional arrangement of Cr ions with TN = 62 K at which an isostructural transition occurs. We show, using temperature dependent high energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction studies, that upon a nominal 1% Cu doping at the Li site, there are large changes in structural parameters and the (coupled) magnetic and dielectric properties.
