2 8 Se p 20 05 Direct observation of Fe spin reorientation in single crystalline
نویسنده
چکیده
We have grown single crystals of YbFe6Ge6 and LuFe6Ge6 and characterized their anisotropic behaviour through low field magnetic susceptibility, field-dependent magnetization, resistivity and heat capacity measurements. The Yb valency is confirmed by LIII XANES measurements. YbFe6Ge6 crystals exhibit a field-dependent, sudden reorientation of the Fe spins at about 63 K, a unique effect in the RFe6Ge6 family (R = rare earths) where the Fe ions order anti-ferromagnetically with Neél temperatures above 450 K and the R ions’ magnetism appears to behave independently. The possible origins of this unusual behaviour of the ordered Fe moments in this compound are discussed.

متن کاملFe spin reorientation across the metamagnetic transition in strained FeRh thin films.
A spin reorientation accompanying the temperature-induced antiferromagnetic (AFM) to ferromagnetic (FM) phase transition is reported in strained epitaxial FeRh thin films. (57)Fe conversion electron Mössbauer spectrometry showed that the Fe moments have different orientations in FeRh grown on thick single-crystalline MgO and in FeRh grown on ion-beam-assist-deposited (IBAD) MgO. It was also obs...
متن کاملStudy of Spin - Reorientation in Tm 2 Fe 17 x Ga x and Sm 2 Fe 17 x Ga x
In order to compare their anisotropy behavior, Tm2Fe17 Ga and Sm2Fe17 Ga (0 8) powders were magnetically aligned using either static-field or dynamic-field methods. Magnetization measurements were carried out along both the easy and hard magnetic directions for temperatures 10 350 K and fields up to 50 kOe. Spin-reorientation behavior was observed in all of the Tm2Fe17 Ga samples studied; the n...
متن کاملInfrared Study of the Spin Reorientation Transition and Its Reversal in the Superconducting State in Underdoped Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe(2)As(2).
With infrared spectroscopy we investigated the spin-reorientation transition from an orthorhombic antiferromagnetic (o-AF) to a tetragonal AF (t-AF) phase and the reentrance of the o-AF phase in the superconducting state of underdoped Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe(2)As(2). In agreement with the predicted transition from a single-Q to a double-Q AF structure, we found that a distinct spin density wave develops ...
متن کاملSPIN REORIENTATION PHENOMENA IN SUBSTITUTED Pr2 (Co, Fe)17 INTERMETALLICS
The magnetic anisotropy phase diagrams of Pr2Co17-,Fen and Pr2Co17-,Fez-,Ty (T=Mn, Zr, Ti, Hf) compounds have been determined. Two spin reorientation temperatures, TSr1 and Tsr2, have been observed. Near the Ts,l or Ts,2 boundary the anisotropy is conical; between the two spin reorientation temperatures they exhibit uniaxial anisotropy and beyond these limits they are planar. Introduction --0-y...
