Magnetic and electric hyperfine interactions in the system EuSm

Abstract

Magnetic and electric hyperfine interactions in the system EuSm were investigated with the isomeric 11/2 state in145Eu by applying the time-differential perturbed angular distribution (TDPAD) method. The temperature dependence of paramagnetism was studied between 90 K and 1000 K by measuring the magnetic hyperfine interaction frequency ωL=gNμNħ1 β(T)Bext. The paramagnetic correction factor β strictly follows the Curie-Weiss relation β=1+C/(T-θ), withC=−50(2) K and θ=−29(5) K. This is compatible with a hyperfine field ofB int(0)=−25(1) T, a valence of two for Eu in Sm, and antiferromagnetic order at low temperatures.

The temperature dependence of the electric quandrupole coupling constant vQ, investigated between 100 K and 400 K, can be reproduced by a linear temperature variation vQ(T)=vQ(0) (1-AT), with vQ(0)=16.2(4) MHz andA=7.2(8)·10−4 K−1.

The paramagnetic relaxation time τrel of the nuclear alignment is proportional to the temperature of the sample, with τrel T−1=3.7(2) ·10−9s K−1.

This leads to the Korringa relation τJ T=const=5.1(5)·10−11s K for the relaxation time of the 4f electronic spinJ. Assuming that the relaxation ofJ is mainly caused by exchange interaction between conduction electrons and localized 4f electrons at the Eu site, an exchange integral of |J eff|=0.10(2) eV can be deduced.
