论文摘要

铁磁Mn $ _4 $ N是基于异常Nernst效果(ANE)的热通量传感器的有前途的材料,因为其单轴磁性相当可观($ k _ {\ rm u} $)和低饱和度磁化值($ k _ {\ rm u} $)和低饱和度磁化($ m_ _ {$ m_ _ {\ rm s} $)。我们在溅射沉积的Mn $ _4 $ N电影中对ANE和异常大厅的效应进行了实验和理论研究。据透露,观察到的负面异常的霍尔电导率($σ_{xy} $)可以通过两个不同的共存磁性结构来解释,即具有高$ k _ {\ rm u} $污染的主要磁性结构,该结构被另一个结构污染的,具有$ k _ {\ rm u} $ u} $ nibt for -n offic for to to n offect for to n offect,观察到的$+0.5 \,μ{\ rm v/k} $ $ 300 \,{\ rm k} $的观察到的横向热电功率($ s {\ rm ane} $)为$+0.5 \,μ{\ rm v/k} $,给出了横向热电系数($α_{xy a} $ $+++++++++++0.34 {mm, k)} $,它小于第一原理计算所预测的值。基于第一原则计算的$α_{xy} $的解释使我们得出结论,结论是,具有高$ k _ {\ rm u} $的单个磁性结构的实现以及费米级的最佳调整是有希望的方法,可以增强$ s _ {\ rm and $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n $ n。 $α_{xy} $的放大到理论值$ 1.77 \,{\ rm a/(m \ cdot k)} $。

Ferrimagnetic Mn$_4$N is a promising material for heat flux sensors based on the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) because of its sizable uniaxial magnetic anisotropy ($K_{\rm u}$) and low saturation magnetization ($M_{\rm s}$). We experimentally and theoretically investigated the ANE and anomalous Hall effect in sputter-deposited Mn$_4$N films. It was revealed that the observed negative anomalous Hall conductivity ($σ_{xy}$) could be explained by two different coexisting magnetic structures, that is, a dominant magnetic structure with high $K_{\rm u}$ contaminated by another structure with negligible $K_{\rm u}$ owing to an imperfect degree of order of nitrogen. The observed transverse thermoelectric power ($S_{\rm ANE}$) of $+0.5\, μ{\rm V/K}$ at $300\, {\rm K}$ gave a transverse thermoelectric coefficient ($α_{xy}$) of $+0.34\, {\rm A/(m \cdot K)}$, which was smaller than the value predicted from first-principles calculation. The interpretation for $α_{xy}$ based on the first-principles calculations led us to conclude that the realization of single magnetic structure with high $K_{\rm u}$ and optimal adjustment of the Fermi level are promising approaches to enhance $S_{\rm ANE}$ in Mn$_4$N through the sign reversal of $σ_{xy}$ and the enlargement of $α_{xy}$ up to a theoretical value of $1.77\, {\rm A/(m \cdot K)}$.
