Abstract. - This article deals with a general calculation of the localized contribution to the electric field gradient in transition non-cubic metals and alloys, and on transition impurity in normal non-cubic metals. Taking into account temperature and many-body effects, a first order perturbation dynamical theory, in the random phase approximation leads to the mean value of any operator. The influence of the material anisotropy on both crystal field and transfer integrals is analyzed in details.

l. introduction.

-

A compilation [l] of experi- mental results in the field of nuclear quadrupole interactions in metals and alloys has been recently published and it contains a wealth of interesting data, as well as evidences of the increasing interest for the understanding of the factors that influence these interactions.

However, from a theoretical point of view, many things are far from being clearly explained. For instance, if we concentrate on the hexagonal close- packed metals and alloys, as reported in our previous works [2, 31, the signs, the temperature and material dependences of the EFG have not been completely interpreted by now, except perhaps in the case of the normal pure hcp metal (Be, Mg, Cd, Zn) for which DAS [4] achieved a satisfactory approach in an OPW description of the band structure, or in the case of transition impurities in these metals when virtual bound 3d states can be treated in the Hartree-Fock approximation [2,3]. It is not the purpose of the paper to return to an extensive critical survey of the others many theoretical approachs of the EFG in metals, since it has been already done very often [2,3,4]. Let us just recall that the main problem is to elucidate the relative contribution of electrons and lattice to the EFG. The lattice contribution (positive ions plus a uniform background of free electron gas) is usually obtained through summation procedure 15, 6, 31 ;

but it is rather easy to see [7, 81 that the final value obtained for eq,,,, changes drastically ,when the Cou- lomb potential of the bare ions is replaced by more realistic ones as Thomas-Fermi, oscillating Friedel or Hartree potential. So even this mere point of the lattice

contribution cannot be considered as well settled. The localized (or electronic) contribution to the EFG can be expressed as :

where n refers to the bands and k to the states in each band, lying below the Fermi surface. It would be worthwhile obtaining the value of eq,,, because it is an indirect genuine measurement of the space distribu- tion of the electrons in anisotropic material, which could be a palliative observation to the direct study of the equipotential lines in these materials. In fact, it is not a trivial question, since one needs the knowledge of the wave functions for all the occupied Fermi volume, and solutions can only be achieved through drastic approximations. In addition to the OPW approach in normal hcp metals made by Das [4] or Mohapatra et al. [g], another model has been proposed [l01 by Watson, Gossard and Yafet (WGY model in the following) for the pure transition metals ; in this model the surface of a Fermi sphere is distorted by the crystal potential (which is merely reduced to its l = 2 component) and this results in an expression of the local EFG,involving only the density of states at the Fermi surface, However the WGY analysis, not only has not considered the eventual Fermi volume effects, but in addition has left out of count a contri-

bution (called F. in their paper) to the Coulomb

integrals whose effects would have been to enhance the polarization of the electrons by the crystal potential. As a logical extension to our previous works [2, 33,

the purpose of this paper is to present a general calculation of the local EFG taking into account the temperature and dynamical effects, in hcp transition metals and alloys and on transition impurities in hcp normal metals.

2. General features of the calculation.

-

As already mentioned, obtaining quantitative results for the local EFG needs accurate electronic wave-functions which, unfortunately, are not available for most of the non-cubic metals and alloys. Among approxima- tion process, a procedure consists of writing the one- electron Hamiltonian and then taking a convenient description (APW, KKR, etc.) for the wave functions, so leading to the complete study of the system band structure. Such a procedure has been used by Deman- geat [l11 to obtain the EFG arising from the spin-

orbit coupling in ferromagnetic nickel.

The purpose of these papers is less to provide numerical result for a particular system than to give a general analysis which could be valid for qualitative interpretation in the most various experimental situation.

So, our prospect is to analyze the influence of aniso- tropy on the electrons in a metal ; to be more precise, this calculation consists of giving the mean value of a time-depending operator a t ) whose basic properties are the following :

-

<

2(t)

>

= 0 for cubic metal or isotropic environment.

-

<

A^(t)

>

depends mainly on only one electronic band (nd for transition metals).

-

2(t)

is localized so that the matrix elements of

A^

can be expressed only with wave functions centered on

one site

-

A^(t) is not spin dependent.

The EFG operator ':(COS satisfies these basic r

properties.

Then, the metal anisotropy will be considered as a weak perturbation with respect to a cubic environment, which is a rather consistent hypothesis for hcp struc- ture having c/a ratio not too far from the ideal value, and small energy difference with CFC structures.

With the restrictive properties of the a t ) operator, the problem of its mean value can be expressed in the

tight-binding model over a set of functions [l11

including S-band like functions

I

k sa > and I-like atomic states

I

mla > centered on the site

1.

As explained in an earlier paper [3], the S-band structure and the I-s interactions are second order in anisotropy dependence of A^(t), and consequently will be neglected in the following.

Assuming that the crystal field anisotropy can be considered as a perturbation, the Hamiltonian will be written :

where X , describes an isotropic metal quite near to the

actual one ; in particular, it contains S-band energy, the S-l mixing interaction and the two-body parts of electron-electron interaction.

Over the

where

V:

is the change due to anisotropy in the crystal field integrals centered on the 1 site and AT:*' is the change due to anisotropy in the transfer integrals bet- ween 1 and 1' sites. Here is introduced the extra- hypothesis that the anisotropy dependence of the transfer integrals gave only diagonal perturbation terms ; this assumption is not so obvious and is mainly introduced for simplicity's sake.

The &) operator can be written as well :

K, expresses the similar response to perturbation applied in similar circumstances to the transfer inte- grals corresponding to site

and 1'. Now the problem is to deal with the calculation of K , and K,.

It is then interesting [l31 to introduce the functions :

4.1.1. In a pure metal, which remains invariant by translation through the lattice, some interest- ing simplifications can be carried out in the calculation of the response functions, resulting from the following translational properties :

It may be worth noting that x;(co) and x;(w) can be really used to obtain the mean value of any operator which would be sensitive to the material anisotropy through partly localised electrons (EFG, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility...).

4 . 3 S~MPLIFIED EXPRESSION FOR THE LOCAL EFG. - To obtain the localized contribution eqLoc to the EFG eq. (13) can be used by substituting the true expression of the quadrupole operator

The former does not depend on the band structure and corresponds only to the influence of the anisotropy on the sub-band position ; it can be easily evaluated if the crystal potential is expressed by the spherical harmonic addition theorem. The later is in fact a summation of k dependent terms each of which corresponding to the energy change 6Em(k) at wave vector k in sub-band m.

Finally, eq,,, can be expressed as

are given by eq. (14) and (15) which leads to :

(For a paramagnetic 3d transition material, at T = 0 K and in the static approximation o = 0, eql reduces to the expression of eq,,, obtained in the Hartree-Fock approximation [3]). To go further into detailed calcula- tion needs both a precise description of the material structure and extra simplification in the evaluation of the 6Em(k) quantities.

5. Localized contribution to the EFG on transition impurities in non-cubic metals.

-

5.1 TRANSITION

IMPURITY IN NORMAL METALS.

-

Assuming that the direct influence of the crystal field on the host S-band is not too strong, the perturbation potential of a single transition impurity can furthermore be assumed mostly loca- lized in the center of the impurity cell itself. Then, the perturbation part of the Hamiltonian (eq. 2) can be reaso- nably reduced to :

E1 =

2

V: ~ 2Cmuo ~ 0 mu

where 0 refers to the impurity site.

So the influence of the anisotropy results only in changes for the positions of the impurity electronic levels and eq,,, can be merely identified to eql (eq. 16) :

Again, this result is consistent with an Hartree-Fock calculation [3] in the limits T + 0 K and o -+ 0. 5 . 2 TRANSITION IMPURITY IN TRANSITION METALS.

-

A calculation of the EFG, even restricted to the localized contribution, in the most general transition-transition system could be carried out in principle, starting as in the previous sections from the expressions of the responses functions given by eq. (9) and (10). However, the results reported here will deal only with rather simple dilute systems in which the substitutional impurity is so too far from the host in the periodic classification, so that the crystallographic point group of the host can be considered

as not altered by the impurity presence and that both host and impurity atoms have electrons with the same

I-like orbital character.

Assuming furthermore, after Lederer and Mills [l 51, that the impurity influence on the electron-hole bubble

I

m) is negligible, the impurity effect on the band host will mostly result in changes AU = U i

-

U. and

AJ = Ji

-

Jo for the Coulomb and exchange integrals at the impurity site.

So, eq. (1 1 ) and (12) can be straightforward rewritten by substituting U , and Jo to U and J for all sites but the impurity one for which U and J must be changed into U,

+

AU and Jo

+

AJ respectively. This results in the appearance of four more terms in the right parts of eq. ( 1 1) and (12) which correspond to the perturbation intro- duced by the impurity, and as a consequence the response functions as well as the EFG will be different at the impurity site with respect to a normal host site.

For instance, if we concentrate for simplicity's sake on paramagnetic systems where

El

and

g2

are not spin dependent,

El

are now solutions of the following set of equations, quite formaly similar to eq. (12) :

will be obtained in a good approximation using the second eq. (13) and the corresponding contribution to the localized EFG will be the same as eq, in eq. (16). So the presence of an impurity will intro- duce a change in the EFG on both itself and host atoms through the eq, contribution (as defined in section 4.3).

In particular we see that the impurity introduces an extra contribution to the localized EFG on the host atoms ; the magnitude of this extra contribution is mostly determined by Xii(w) which is the Fourier transform of the susceptibility (eq. (22)) and, as a consequence, is an oscillating function in space around the impurity. This new oscillating contribution is quite different from the classical Friedel oscilla- tions [16]. The EFG which results from the classical Friedel oscillation arises from the anisotropy that may be created in the host metal by the impurity. The new oscillating term which appears in eq. (22a) is a res- ponse of the impurity to the actual pure host aniso- tropy.

6 . Conclusion.

-

The dynamical theory which is presented in this paper is quite general and can -be used to determine the anisotropy dependence of any

physical parameter in a solid. The analytic expressions obtained for

<

A(t)

>

can be considered as without too much intricacies, particularly when applied to the calculation of the localized contribution to the EFG in non-cubic metals. The results obtained for pure transition metal, transition impurity in normal and transition metal cannot be extended to the calculation of the EFG in pure normal metals which are not well described in the tight binding approximation. It is worth emphasizing that the perhaps two main features of the calculations presented here were to treat the anisotropy influence as a perturbation term in the Hamiltonian of the system and to approach

by linear response theory.
