First-order valence transition: Neutron diffraction, inelastic neutron scattering, and x-ray absorption investigations on the double perovskite Ba2PrRu0.9Ir0.1O6

Bulk studies have revealed a first-order valence phase transition in Ba2PrRu1−xIrxO6 (0.10 ≤ x ≤ 0.25), which is absent in the parent compounds with x = 0 (Pr3+) and x = 1 (Pr4+), which exhibit antiferromagnetic order with transition temperatures TN = 120 and 72 K, respectively. In the present study...
