中子散射实验在119°K转变点寻找磁铁矿的自旋波激发能变化,结果显示没有这种变化。然而,在这项工作中,我们发现低温结构产生了弱的额外中子衍射线,可以用立方指数表示为(h,k,l±½)。从观测到的中子极化强度灵敏度和结构因子随sinθ/λ的增加而增加,我们得出结论,额外的反射并不直接归因于磁有序(亚铁磁螺旋或八面体位置上的Fe 2 +-Fe 3+有序)。相反,它们是由晶体对称性的降低引起的。
A neutron‐scattering experiment to look for spin‐wave excitation‐energy changes of magnetite at the transition point 119°K showed no such change. During this work we discovered, however, that the low‐temperature structure gives rise to weak extra neutron‐diffraction lines that can be indexed as (h, k, l±½) in cubic indices. From the observed neutron polarization sensitivity of the intensities and the increasing structure factors with increasing sinθ/λ, we conclude that the extra reflections are not directly due to magnetic ordering (ferrimagnetic spirals or Fe2+–Fe3+ ordering on the octahedral sites). Rather they are caused by a lowering of the crystal symmetry.
