摘要

Neutron diffraction and muon spin relaxation (μSR) studies are presented for the newly characterized polymorph of NiNb_2O_6 (β-NiNb_2-O_6) with space group P4_(2) and μSR data only for the previously known columbite structure polymorph with space group Pbcn. The magnetic structure of the P4_(2) form was determined from neutron diffraction using bom powder and single-crystal data. Powder neutron diffraction determined an ordering wave vector k = (1/2.1/2,1/2). Single-crystal data confirmed the same k vector and showed that the correct magnetic structure consists of antiferromagnetically coupled chains running along the a or b axis in adjacent Ni~(2+) layers perpendicular to the c axis, which is consistent with the expected exchange interaction hierarchy in this system. The refined magnetic structure is compared with the known magnetic structures of the closely related trirutile phases, NiSb_2O_6 and NiTa_2_6. μSR data finds a transition temperature of T_N ~ 15 K for this system, while the columbite polymorph exhibits a lower T_N = 5.7(3) K. Our μSR measurements also allowed us to estimate the critical exponent of the order parameter for each polymorph. We found β = 0.25(3) and 0.16(2) for the β and columbite polymorphs, respectively. The single-crystal neutron scattering data give a value for the critical exponent β = 0.28(3) for β-NiNb_2O_6, in agreement with the μSR value. While both systems have ft values less than 0.3, which is indicative of reduced dimensionality, this effect appears to be much stronger for the columbite system. In other words, although both systems appear to be well described by S = 1 spin chains, the interchain interactions in the β polymorph are likely much larger.
