NMR study of the ternary carbidesM2AlC(M=Ti,V<

Abstract: We have performed a systematic study of the layered ternary carbides Ti 2 AlC, V 2 AlC, and Cr 2 AlC using 27 Al NMR spectroscopy. The quadrupole splittings, Knight shifts, as well as spin-lattice relaxation times on each material have been identified. The sign of the isotropic Knight shift varies from positive for Ti 2 AlC and V 2 AlC to negative for Cr 2 AlC, attributed to the enhancement of hybridization with increasing valence electron count in the transition metal. Universally long relaxation times are fo… Show more

“…[16][17][18] For the present alloys, the relaxation of Al nuclei is dominated by their coupling to the spin of the s-character electrons. In the absence of the collective electron effects, the relaxation rate is simply governed by the initial occupied and final unoccupied electronic states, associated with the hyperfine field arising from contact electrons.…”

“…However other measurement35 for AFM Cr 2 AlC obtained a value of 0.64  μ B . Our computed sum of the absolute magnetic moment of spin-up and spin-down directions is 5.3749  μ B in AFM Cr 2 AlC in one unit cell (four Cr atoms, 0.6719  μ B per Cr atom), consisting well with previous calculations27, in particular with the calculations FM Cr 2 AlC36 (0.7  μ B ), Cr 2 AlC27 (0.7  μ B at U = 0 eV), Cr 2 GaC37 (0.75  u B ).…”
