High-pressure synthesis and sequential ferrimagnetic ordering and spin glass transition of an Fe/Ru disordered quadruple perovskite CeCu3Fe2Ru2O12

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/ae0399

Abstract We successfully prepared an $A$-site-ordered quadruple perovskite oxide CeCu$_{3}$Fe$_{2}$Ru$_{2}$O$_{12}$ by using a high-pressure method (10 GPa, 1400 K). The compound crystallizes in the Im$\bar{3}$ space group, with $A$-site ordering of Ce and Cu ions in a ratio of 1:3, but $B$-site disordered distribution of Fe and Ru ions. Bond-value-sum calculations and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurement manifest that the charge distribution is Ce$^{3.5+}$Cu$^{2+}_{3}$Fe$^{3+}_{2}$Ru$^{4.25+}_{2}$O$_{12}$. A ferrimagnetic phase transition occurs at $T_{\rm C} = 73.6 $ K followed by a spin glass behavior at 50.3 K consistent with the conventional dynamical scaling power law. Electrical transport measurement shows that the intrinsic electrical behavior is semiconducting and the resistivity obey the adiabatic small-polaron model. The specific heat follows a $T^2$ law instead of traditional phonon-dominated $T^{3}$ behavior implying a finite energy gap in the excitation spectrum.
