Popis: | Phonon softening in hexagonal BaFe12O19 single crystal is observed in temperature dependent polarized Raman spectroscopy. The phonon softening is significantly enhanced below ∼80 K, at which the magnetization in a magnetic field along c-axis shows a clear change in the temperature dependence, indicating a magnetic phase transition near 80 K. Possible interpretations of the anomalous temperature dependence of the phonon frequencies–phonon softening behaviors are discussed. The phonon softening would be correlated to local structural and magnetic phase transition in hexagonal BaFe12O19, in which the spin-phonon coupling would have major contribution for the phonon softening. We also discuss that the spin-phonon coupling would be affected by both the spin ordering and the individual phonon vibration in magnetic material. |
