摘要
我们通过在非弹性中子和 X 射线散射测量中绘制晶格和磁激发图谱,实验研究了金属间化合物 URu2Si2 在隐藏序(HO)相中的对称性,测量涵盖了 HO 相和高温顺磁相。在所有温度下,激发均尊重体心四方顺磁相的布里渊区边界,即使在 HO 相中也未显示出空间对称性降低的迹象。磁激发源于杂化能带之间的跃迁并追踪费米面,其特征得到了声子测量的证实。由于存在较大的杂化能标,完整的铀磁矩在 HO 相中依然保持,这与未观察到晶体场分裂态的情况一致。我们的结果与局域序参量模型以及典型密度波的行为不符。我们提出,一个不破坏空间对称性的序参量可以自然地解释这些特征。

备注
16 pages, 13 figures The scope of this work was expanded to include much more magnetic neutron scattering as well as inelastic x-ray scattering. The modes originally identified as soft phonons are magnetic. Many of the figures had their quality reduced in order to fit the arxiv file size limits.
