Magnetic and Electronic Properties of Selected Rare-Earth Chromium Germanides Compounds

Electronic, magnetic and transport properties of rare-earth monopnictides.

The electronic structures and magnetic properties of many rare-earth monopnictides are reviewed in this article. Possible candidate materials for spintronics devices from the rare-earth monopnictide family, i.e. high polarization (nominally half-metallic) ferromagnets and antiferromagnets, are identified. We attempt to provide a unified picture of the electronic properties of these strongly cor...

Magnetic properties of some equiatomic ternary rare-earth compounds.

Interesting and diverse magnetic behavior has been reported in the literature on the rare-earth-based equiatomic ternary compounds. For example, CeGeGa (Ref. l) and possible CePdSb (Ref. 2) are dense Kondo ferromagnets, while hybridization-induced pseudogap formation at the Fermi level at low temperatures occurs in the nonmagnetic CeRhSb (Ref. 3) and CeNiSn. ' A massive heavy-electron state wit...

Density of states and magnetic properties of the rare-earth compounds RFe2, RCO2 and RNi2

2014 The density of states of yttrium compounds YM2 (M = Fe, Co, Ni) is calculated within a tightbinding scheme. Using the Stoner model, conclusions are drawn about their magnetic and electronic properties. In YCo2, we show that one has to introduce paramagnon effects in order to explain the electronic properties. The additional d-f interaction introduced by rare-earth atoms (R) in RM2 is treat...
