LC Cooperative Magnetism in Solid State Flashcards
what are the 2 different total spin states
triplet and singet
what is Stot in the singlet state
0
what is Stot in the triplet state
1
what is the formula for Jex
Jex = (Es - Et) / 2
when is Es favoured
Jex > 0
when is Et favoured
Jex < 0
when is Et generally favoured
when 2 electrons are in the same atom
when is Es generally favoured
when 2 electrons are in different atoms
`what is super exchange
where 2p orbitals can transmit the exchange between unpaired electrons in 3d orbitals
when governs the energy of a super exchange interaction
degree of orbital overlap
what rules determine the sign of J
Goodenough- kanamori rules
what state forms from 180 degree interaction on the same orbital and what sign is J
singlet Jex < 0
what state forms from orthogonal overlap of 2 orbitals and what sign is Jex
triplet Jex > 0
what happens to magnetic moments in a ferromagnet
allign parellel
what happens to magnetic moments in a antiferromagnet
allign anti parellel
when does a material become ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic
below a critical temperature - above this temp it is paramagnetic
