Multiband Metallic Ground State in Multilayered Nickelates La_3Ni_2O_7 and La_4Ni_3O_10 Probed by ^139La-NMR at Ambient Pressure
arxiv(2023)
摘要
We report a ^139La-NMR study of polycrystalline samples of
multi(n)-layered nickelates, La_3Ni_2O_7-δ (n=2) and
La_4Ni_3O_10-δ (n=3), at ambient pressure. Measurements of the
nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra and nuclear spin relaxation rate
(1/T_1) indicate the emergence of a density wave order with a gap below
T^*∼150 K for La_3Ni_2O_7-δ and ∼130 K for
La_4Ni_3O_10-δ. The finite value of 1/T_1 below T^* indicates
metallic ground states with the remaining density of states at the Fermi level
(E_ F) under the density wave order. These features are attributed to
multiple d electron bands with different characteristics. Above T^*, the
gradual decrease in 1/T_1T upon cooling implies the presence of a band with
flat dispersion near E_ F. From our microscopic probes, we point out
that these nickelates (n=2 and 3) possess similar electronic states despite
the difference in the formal valence of the Ni-d electron states, which
provides a basis for understanding the novel high-T_ c superconductivity
under high pressures.
