摘要
NaNiO2 has been studied by neutron-powder diffraction, magnetic susceptibility and submillimeter wave ESR. The monoclinic structure at room temperature is characterised by a ferrodistorsive orbital ordering due to the Jahn-Teller (JT) effect of the Ni3+ ions in title low spin state. NaNiO2 undergoes a structural transition at around 480 EC, above which the orbital ordering disappears. The high temperature phase is rhombohedral with the layered alpha -NaFeO2 structure (R (3) over barm space group). The magnetic susceptibility exhibits hysteresis and we observe a change of the Curie-Weiss law parameters above the JT transition. The anisotropy of the g-factor at 200 K can be attributed to the JT effect which favours the \3z(2) - r(2)> orbital occupation. Finally, the interplay between the magnetic and structural properties of NaNiO2 and Li1-xNi1+xO2 is discussed.
