The analysis of three-dimensional neutron spin polarization vectors, using a technique referred to as spherical neutron polarimetry (SNP), is a very powerful means of determining complex magnetic structures in magnetic materials. However, the requirement to maintain neutrons in a highly polarized state has made it difficult to use this technique in conjunction with extreme experimental conditions. We have developed a high pressure cell made completely of nonmagnetic materials and having no effect on neutron polarizations. Herein, we report the first SNP analyses under high pressure up to 4.0 GPa in the magnetoelectric multiferroic delafossite CuFeO2. This study also determined the complex spiral magnetic structures in these pressure-induced phases, by measuring the full neutron polarization matrix. The results presented herein demonstrate that the SNP measurements are feasible under high pressure conditions, and that this method is a useful approach to study pressure-induced physical phenomena. Spherical neutron polarimetry (SNP) experiment in conjunction with high pressure condition faces many experimental difficulties. Here the authors report development of SNP with nonmagnetic hybrid anvil high pressure cell and application to the magnetoelectric multiferroic delafossite CuFeO2 system.
