Electron-momentum dependence of electron-phonon coupling underlies dramatic phonon renormalization in YNi 2B 2C. Nat Commun 2022; 13:228. [PMID: 35017477 PMCID: PMC8752669 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-021-27843-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2020] [Accepted: 12/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Electron-phonon coupling, i.e., the scattering of lattice vibrations by electrons and vice versa, is ubiquitous in solids and can lead to emergent ground states such as superconductivity and charge-density wave order. A broad spectral phonon line shape is often interpreted as a marker of strong electron-phonon coupling associated with Fermi surface nesting, i.e., parallel sections of the Fermi surface connected by the phonon momentum. Alternatively broad phonons are known to arise from strong atomic lattice anharmonicity. Here, we show that strong phonon broadening can occur in the absence of both Fermi surface nesting and lattice anharmonicity, if electron-phonon coupling is strongly enhanced for specific values of electron-momentum, k. We use inelastic neutron scattering, soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements and ab-initio lattice dynamical and electronic band structure calculations to demonstrate this scenario in the highly anisotropic tetragonal electron-phonon superconductor YNi2B2C. This new scenario likely applies to a wide range of compounds.

Abstract
The localized f-electrons enrich the magnetic properties in rare-earth-based intermetallics. Among those, compounds with heavier 4d and 5d transition metals are even more fascinating because anomalous electronic properties may be induced by the hybridization of 4f and itinerant conduction electrons primarily from the d orbitals. Here, we describe the observation of trivalent Yb3+ with S = 1/2 at low temperatures in Yb x Pt5P, the first of a new family of materials. Yb x Pt5P (0.23 ≤ x ≤ 0.96) phases were synthesized and structurally characterized. They exhibit a large homogeneity width with the Yb ratio exclusively occupying the 1a site in the anti-CeCoIn5 structure. Moreover, a sudden resistivity drop could be found in Yb x Pt5P below ∼0.6 K, which requires further investigation. First-principles electronic structure calculations substantiate the antiferromagnetic ground state and indicate that two-dimensional nesting around the Fermi level may give rise to exotic physical properties, such as superconductivity. Yb x Pt5P appears to be a unique case among materials.

Abstract
We report an inelastic neutron scattering investigation of phonons with energies up to 159 meV in the conventional superconductor YNi(2)B(2)C. Using the sweep mode, a newly developed time-of-flight technique involving the continuous rotation of a single crystal specimen, allowed us to measure a four-dimensional volume in (Q, E) space and, thus, determine the dispersion surface and linewidths of the A(1g) (≈102 meV) and A(u) (≈159 meV) type phonon modes over the whole Brillouin zone. Despite of having linewidths of Γ=10 meV, A(1g) modes do not strongly contribute to the total electron-phonon coupling constant λ. However, experimental linewidths show a remarkable agreement with ab initio calculations over the complete phonon energy range, demonstrating the accuracy of such calculations in a rare comparison to a comprehensive experimental data set.

Abstract
Various layered boronitrides (LaN)(n)(T(M2)B(2)) (T(M) = transition metal; n = 2, 3) have been prepared using a high-pressure synthesis technique in which an inverse α-PbO-type T(M2)B(2) layer is separated by two or three rock salt-type LaN layers and these layers are connected through linear (BN) units. The electronic states of the distinguishing (BN) unit and intermediate rock salt-type LaN layer are discussed on the basis of density functional theory calculations. Bulk superconductivity has been found in LaNiBN (T(c) ≈ 4.1 K), CaNiBN (T(c) ≈ 2.2 K), and LaPtBN (T(c) ≈ 6.7 K), where the Fermi level E(F) is located in the bands composed of the T(M)(d)-B(2p) antibonding state and the main T(M)(d) band resides well below E(F). The non-superconductive T(M)-based compounds exhibit Pauli paramagnetic behavior, in which the highly itinerant nature of the electrons caused by strong T(M)(d)-B(2p) covalent bonding suppresses the long-range magnetic ordering.

Abstract
The magnetic structures of the title compounds have been studied by neutron diffraction. In contrast to the isomorphous RNi(2)B(2)C compounds, wherein a variety of exotic incommensurate modulated structures has been observed, the magnetic structure of ErCo(2)B(2)C is found to be a collinear antiferromagnet with [Formula: see text] while those of HoCo(2)B(2)C and DyCo(2)B(2)C are observed to be simple ferromagnets. For all studied compounds, the moments are found to be confined within the basal plane and their magnitudes are comparable to the values obtained from the low-temperature isothermal magnetization measurements. The absence of modulated magnetic structures in the RCo(2)B(2)C series (for ErCo(2)B(2)C, verified down to 50 mK) is attributed to the quenching of the Fermi surface nesting features.

Abstract
Based on magnetization, specific heat, magnetostriction and neutron-diffraction studies on single-crystal TbCo(2)B(2)C, it is found out that the paramagnetic properties, down to liquid nitrogen temperatures, are well described by a Curie-Weiss behavior of the Tb(3+) moments. Furthermore, below T(c) = 6.3 K, the Tb sublattice undergoes a ferromagnetic (FM) phase transition with the easy axis being along the (100) direction and, concomitantly, the unit cell undergoes a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic distortion. The manifestation of an FM state in TbCo(2)B(2)C is unique among all other isomorphous borocarbides, in particular TbNi(2)B(2)C (T(N) = 15 K, incommensurate modulated magnetic state) even though the Tb ions in both isomorphs have almost the same crystalline electric field properties. The difference among the magnetic modes of these Tb-based isomorphs is attributed to a difference in their exchange couplings which are in turn caused by a variation in their lattice parameters and in the position of their Fermi levels.

Abstract
We present a comprehensive de Haas-van Alphen study on the nonmagnetic borocarbide superconductor LuNi2B2C. The analysis of the angular-dependent effective masses for different bands in combination with full-potential density functional calculations allowed us to determine the mass-enhancement factors, lambda, for the different electronic bands and their wave-vector dependences. Our data clearly show the anisotropic multiband character of the superconductivity in LuNi2B2C.

Abstract
We have performed temperature- (T-)dependent laser-photoemission spectroscopy of the antiferromagnetic (AF) superconductor ErNi2B2C to study the electronic-structure evolution reflecting the interplay between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. The spectra at the superconducting (SC) phase show a very broad spectral shape. A T-dependent SC gap shows a sudden deviation from the BCS prediction just below TN. This observation can be explained well by the theoretical model and thus represents the characteristic bulk electronic structure of the AF SC phase for the first time.

Abstract
The ultrasonic attenuation alpha of the highly anisotropic s-wave superconductor YNi2B2C has been measured for all the symmetrically independent elastic modes to explore the location of the zero superconducting gap region on the Fermi surface. The attenuation of the longitudinal mode shows a pronounced anisotropy in the superconducting state: While alpha shows a thermally activated behavior along [110] and [001] directions, it shows T-linear dependence along [100]. These results together with those for the transverse modes demonstrate the presence of point nodes or zero-gap regions along [100] and [010] directions. This is a clear demonstration of ultrasonic attenuation as a powerful probe for the structure of the anisotropic superconducting gap.

Abstract
We have performed ultrahigh-resolution photoemission spectroscopy of Y(Ni1-xPtx)2B2C ( x = 0.0 and 0.2) in order to study the changes in the density of states across the superconducting transition. Because of a drastic increase in energy resolution, we clearly observe the opening of superconducting gaps across T(c) in both compounds. Furthermore, we find a small but significant difference in the superconducting-state spectral shape. This can be explained in terms of reduction in gap anisotropy by introducing impurities and provides spectroscopic evidence for an anisotropic s-wave gap in YNi2B2C.

Abstract
We present a theory of superconductivity in the presence of a general magnetic structure in a form suitable for the description of complex magnetic phases encountered in borocarbides. The theory, complemented with some details of the band structure and with the magnetic phase diagram, may explain the nearly reentrant behavior and the anisotropy of the upper critical field of HoNi2B2C. The onset of the helical magnetic order depresses superconductivity via the reduction of the interaction between phonons and electrons caused by the formation of magnetic Bloch states. At mean field level, no additional suppression of superconductivity is introduced by the incommensurability of the helical phase.
