Magnetic ordering in CeMnCuSi2

Temperature and field-dependent magnetization measurements on polycrystalline CeMnCuSi2 reveal that the Mn moments in this compound exhibit ordering with a ferromagnetic (FM) component ordered instead of the previously reported purely antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering. The FM ordering temperature, Tc, is about 120K and almost unchanged with external fields up to 50 kOe. Furthermore, an AFM compo...

Magnetic Ordering in CeZnGe

CeZnGe crystallizes with the hexagonal YPtAs-type structure, space group P63/mmc, a = 430.0(2), c = 1678.8(10) pm. A phase-pure sample was synthesized from the elements in a sealed tantalum crucible in a high-frequency furnace. Magnetic susceptibility measurements have revealed a trivalent cerium with an experimental magnetic moment of 2.67(1) μB/Ce atom. Ferromagnetic ordering sets in at TC = ...

Magnetic Ordering in Sr3YCo4O10+x

Transition-metal oxides often exhibit complex magnetic behavior due to the strong interplay between atomic-structure, electronic and magnetic degrees of freedom. Cobaltates, especially, exhibit complex behavior because of cobalt's ability to adopt various valence and spin state configurations. The case of the oxygen-deficient perovskite Sr3YCo4O10+x (SYCO) has attracted considerable attention b...

Magnetic Ordering: Some Structural Aspects

An overview of some structural aspects of magnetic ordering is presented. Magnetic symmetry operations, point groups, and Bravais lattices will be utilized to describe the magnetic symmetry of various magnetic materials. Throughout the talk, the utilization of the theory of magnetic symmetry will be emphasized. The magnetic space groups of Fe, Co, Ni, α’-FeCo, CoPt, CrPt3, and Cu2MnAl will be e...
