Single-crystal growth and magnetic phase diagram of Li2FeSiO4 — •Waldemar Hergett1, Christoph Neef1, Sven Sauerland1, Martin Jonak1, Mahmoud Abdel-Hafiez1, Hubert Wadepohl2, Clemens Ritter3, and Rüdiger Klingeler11Kirchhoff Institute of Physics, Heidelberg University — 2Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Heidelberg University — 3Institut Laue-Langevin, Grenoble

By using the high-pressure optical floating-zone technique (FZ), mm-sized single crystals of γII-Li2FeSiO4 (space group Pmnb) were grown and characterized for the first time. Oriented cuboids were used for thermal expansion, specific heat, and magnetisation studies. High-resolution neutron powder diffraction experiments were performed to resolve the magnetic ground state and analyse the Li-Fe antisite disorder. The impact of different synthesis routes of the starting materials and of FZ growth parameters on the crystal quality was investigated. The single crystal structure of the Pmnb-polymorph was solved for the first time. Thermal expansion, magnetisation and specific heat data show a sharp λ-like anomaly associated with the onset of long-range antiferromagnetic order at TN=17.0(5) K. Pulsed-field magnetisation studies up to 60 T enable constructing the magnetic phase diagram.
