Temperature-dependent Raman spectroscopy in BaRuO systems
We investigated the temperature-dependence of the Raman spectra of a
nine-layer BaRuO single crystal and a four-layer BaRuO epitaxial film,
which show pseudogap formations in their metallic states. From the polarized
and depolarized spectra, the observed phonon modes are assigned properly
according to the predictions of group theory analysis. In both compounds, with
decreasing temperature, while modes show a strong hardening, (or
) modes experience a softening or no significant shift. Their different
temperature-dependent behaviors could be related to a direct Ru metal-bonding
through the face-sharing of RuO. It is also observed that another
mode of the oxygen participating in the face-sharing becomes split at low
temperatures in the four layer BaRuO. And, the temperature-dependence of
the Raman continua between 250 600 cm is strongly correlated to
the square of the plasma frequency. Our observations imply that there should be
a structural instability in the face-shared structure, which could be closely
related to the pseudogap formation of BaRuO systems.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures. to be published in Phys. Rev.
Optical investigation on the electronic structures of Y_{2}Ru_{2}O_{7}, CaRuO_{3}, SrRuO_{3}, and Bi_{2}Ru_{2}O_{7}
We investigated the electronic structures of the bandwidth-controlled
ruthenates, YRuO, CaRuO, SrRuO, and BiRuO, by optical conductivity analysis in a wide energy region of 5 meV
12 eV. We could assign optical transitions from the systematic changes
of the spectra and by comparison with the O 1 x-ray absorption data. We
estimated some physical parameters, such as the on-site Coulomb repulsion
energy and the crystal-field splitting energy. These parameters show that the
4 orbitals should be more extended than 3 ones. These results are also
discussed in terms of the Mott-Hubbard model.Comment: 12 pages (1 table), 3 figure
