NEUTRON-POWDER-DIFFRACTION STUDY OF ErFe11.35Nb0.65 AND ErFe11.35Nb0.65Ny

ErFe_11.35Nb_0.65 AND ErFe_11.35Nb_0.65N_y have been synthesized and neutron-powder-diffraction experiments at room temperature performed. The ErFe_11.35Nb_0.65N_y nitride, obtained by gas-solid reaction, retains the ThMn₁₂-type structure of its parent compound. The Nb atoms occupy 8i sites and the nitrogen atoms are located at 2b sites. The atomic magnetic moments of the Er ions are antiparallel to those of the Fe atoms. Upon nitrogenation, the lattice cell expands mainly along the a-axis and the atomic magnetic moments of Fe are enhanced.

Larmor Precession and Tunnelling Time of a Non—Relativistic Neutral Spin—1／2 Particle Through an Arbitrary Potential Barrier

We investigate the Larmor precession of a non-relativistic neutral spin-1/2 particle in a uniform constant magnetic field confined to the region of a one-dimensional arbitrary potential barrier.With the help of a general spin coherent state it is explicitly shown that the spin precession time is equal to the dwell time.For the special case of a symmetric rectangular potential barrier,the precession time is also in agreement with the transmission time.We present a numerical estimation of the precession time showing an apparent superluminal tunnelling.     

Determination of the sites of Fe atoms in Fe-substituted Mn12

In this paper neutron diffraction experiments were performed for Fe-substituted Mn12 in order to determine the sites of Fe atoms. The results of structure refinements for the sample with our accessed highest Fe content showed that all Fe atoms occupied Mn（3） sites in the Mn12 skeleton. The x-ray absorption fine structure experiments as well as multiple scattering simulations gave the same result. Thus we concluded that Fe atoms only occupied Mn（3） sites. This conclusion also means that Fe-substituted Mn12 series only includes the four single-molecule magnets of [Mn12-xFexO12（CH3COO）16（H2O）4]·2CH3COOH·4H2O （x = 1, 2, 3, and 4）, denoted by Mn11Fe1, Mn10Fe2, MngFe3, and Mn8Fe4, respectively.     

Shape Dependence of Low-Temperature Magnetic Relaxation of Mn12Ac

We report the discovery that the low-temperature magnetic relaxation in Mn12Ac single crystals strongly depends on the shape of the samples. The relaxation time exhibits a minimum at the phase transition point between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetie phases. The shape dependence is attributed to the dipolar interaction between molecular magnets.

MAGNETIC PROPERTIES OF Dy2Fe17-xCrx AND Er2Fe17-xCrx(x=0-3)COMPOUNDS

The crystal structure and magnetic properties of R₂Fe_17-xCr_x(R=Dy,Er,0≤x≤3) compounds have been investigated by me ans of X-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. These compounds have hexagonal Th₂Ni₁₇-type structure. The unit-cell volumes decrease with the increase of Cr concentration x. The Curie temperature T_c of the Er₂Fe_17-xCr_x compounds increases from 320 K for x=0 to 403 K for x=1.0 and then decreases with further increase of x. The Cur ie temperat ure T_c of Dy₂Fe_17-xCr_x compounds increases from 364 K for x=0 to 435 K for x=1.0 and then decreases with further increase of x. The saturation magnetization of these compounds shows an approximately linear decrease with the increase of x. Spin reorientation transitions occur s in Er₂Fe_17-xCr_x(x=2.0 and 3.0).

磁原胞与化学原胞不一致的磁性晶体的磁结构

本文发展了一个讨论磁原胞与化学原胞不一致的磁性晶体的自旋位形的宏观方法。引进一个有限羣,其元素乃是分布于一个磁原胞内的空间羣的元素。该羣的对称元素作用于次晶格的自旋密度上,使热力势保持不变。利用这原理可以建立热力势按次晶格自旋密度的展式。由热力势取极小条件决定磁性晶体的自旋位形。应用这个方法具体地讨论了四类磁性晶体的自旋位形,对每一类情况得到了与中子衍射实验一致的结果。利用本方法在某些情况下,也可以得到螺旋形的自旋位形。
