Possible observation of the coexistence of superconductivity and long-range magnetic order in NdRh4B4

The ternary rare earth compound NdRh₄B₄ has been studied by means of critical field, low temperature heat capacity, and static magnetic susceptibility measurements. Features in the upper critical field and heat capacity data at 1.31 K and 0.89 K suggest the occurrence of long-range magnetic order in the superconducting state. The temperature dependence of the static magnetic susceptibility follows a Curie-Weiss law with an effective magnetic moment μ_eff = 3.58 ± 0.05 μ_B and a Curie-Weiss temperature θ_p = ?6.2 ± 1.0 K between 20 K and room temperature. However,, magnetization vs. applied magnetic field isotherms suggest the development of a ferromagnetic component in the Nd³⁺ magnetization at low temperatures.     

Magnetic structure and magnetic excitations in the two-dimensional spin system of the Cu<Subscript>3</Subscript>B<Subscript>2</Subscript>O<Subscript>6</Subscript> compound

This paper reports on the results of measurements of the magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity, neutron scattering, muon spin relaxation, and electron paramagnetic resonance in Cu₃B₂O₆ for the study of the ground state of the spin system of this compound. The results obtained suggest that, at a temperature of 10 K, the spin subsystem of the crystal, which consists of single spins and clusters of pairs and fours of spins interacting with one another, undergoes a transition to a state representing a superposition of the singlet (for clusters) and magnetically ordered (for single spins) states.     

The change in the character of phase transition with nickel in the Ho(Co,Ni)2 compounds

The series Ho(Co_1-cN_c)₂ has been investigated in the composition range c?0.15 by spin-echo NMR of ¹⁶⁵Ho and by magnetic measurements. From NMR data a value of (9.5±0.1)μ_B is estimated for holmium in HoCo₂. Magnetisation measurements on the same compound give (7.9±0.1)μ_B/fu. An assumption of 0.8μ_B for the cobalt moment aligned antiparallel to that of holmium leads to a value of 9.5μ_B for holmium in agreement with the value estimated from NMR. The substitution of nickel for cobalt causes a rapid fall in both the hyperfine field, and the ordering temperatures, while the molecular moment shows a simultaneous rise. These are attributed to a rapid fall in the cobalt moment which leads to a bootstrap process involving the strength of the exchange field and the magnitude of the cobalt moment. Nickel substitution also leads to a change in the character of the magnetic phase transition. Initially first order, this transition becomes second order on exceeding ≈ 9 at% Ni.     

Optical investigation of metamagnetic DyAlO3

We have investigated the optical absorption spectra of metamagnetic DyAlO₃ (T _N =3.4 °K) above and below the Néel temperature. We find that the magnetic interactions are predominantly between the ions along the crystallographicc-axis; the interaction energy between two ions isW _C =? (2.9±0.6) cm^?1. Additional line-shifts below 3.4 °K yield the Néel temperature. Zeeman effect studies give the magnetic moment of the groundstate as μ=(9.2 ± 0.9)μ _B . The direction of the magnetic moments is in thea-b plane, with angles of ± 33.5° and ± 146.5° from theb-axis. The Zeeman effect studies reveal two metamagnetic transitions (forH _ext∥μ) at 7.0 and 7.3 kOe respectively. Additional susceptibility and Mössbauer measurements confirm the Néel temperature and the magnetic moment.     

Effect of the Structural Disorder and Short-Range Order on the Electronic Structure and Magnetic Properties of the Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript>VAl Heusler Alloy

The Fe₂VAl Heusler alloy is of great interest because ab initio calculations predict the absence of magnetization in it and a half-metal behavior with a pseudogap at the Fermi level. At the same time, experimental data (low-temperature specific heat, electrical resistivity, and magnetic properties) show that it is difficult to achieve such characteristics, and Fe₂VAl samples usually have the characteristics of a poor magnetic metal. Ab initio calculations have been performed for ordered and disordered (Fe_1–xV _x )₃Al Heusler alloys with x = 0.33. It has been shown that the alloy in a structurally ordered state (L2₁ structure) is a half-metal with a deep pseudogap at the Fermi level and does not have magnetization. At the same time, antisite defects in the iron and vanadium sublattices of the disordered alloy (D0₃ structure) lead to an increase in the conductivity and to the appearance of spin polarization and magnetization of (2.1±0.1)μ_B/f.u. The short-range order in the disordered phase has been generated by increasing the concentration of clusters characteristic of the bcc structure of α-Fe, which results in an increase in the magnetization to (2.5±0.1)μ_B/f.u.     

Structural defects and magnetic properties in the ordered compound CoGa

The magnetic susceptibility of the β-phase CoGa has been correlated with the defect structure of this phase. If only vacancies on the Co-sublattice (i.e. T-atom sublattice) and Co-atoms on the Ga-sublattice (i.e. transition antistructure atoms or TAS-atoms) are considered, their concentrations can be evaluated by density measurements combined with lattice constant determination. The susceptibility consists of a Curie-Weiss term which can be explained by magnetic moments located at TAS-atoms. The effective local magnetic moment per TAS-atom is found to be (5.02±0.06)μ_B. This value is independent of alloy composition and of heat treatment and is valid in the whole composition range for alloys quenched from 900°C as well as for those annealed after quenching or cooled slowly from high temperatures. With annealing out of quenched-in TAS-atoms the susceptibility decreases as predicted by this model.     

Magnetic structures and magnetic susceptibilities of terbium oxysulfide and oxyselenide

For the two isomorphous compounds Tb₂O₂S and Tb₂O₂Se, the magnetic susceptibility measurements on powder samples show an antiferromagnetic ordering with Néel temperatures of about 7.7 and 7K respectively. Differing in this respect from the other rare earth oxyselenides, the magnetic anisotropy of Tb₂O₂Se at low temperature is weaker than that of Tb₂O₂S.We also determine the magnetic structures of these two compounds by neutron diffraction experiments at 1.5K. The magnetic cell is orthohexagonal and doubled along the c-axis; the magnetic moments make an angle, with the c-axis, of 47 ± 10° for Tb₂O₂S and 30 ± 10° for Tb₂O₂Se and the moment values at 1.5K are 8.14 ± 0.2μ_B and 6.5 ± 0.2μ_B, respectively.It is rather exceptional that in a rare earth uniaxial compound the magnetic moment makes an angle with the c-axis. However we interpret this situation by the fact that several levels exist very near to the ground state. The crystal field calculations are in good agreement with the experimental results.     

Magnetic properties of amorphous ferromagnet Fe78Mo2B20

Low-field magnetic susceptibility and the magnetic field dependence of magnetization of Metglas 2605 A (Fe₇₈Mo₂B₂₀) were studied between 300 and 600 K and in fields up to 10kG. It is shown here that for an amorphous ferromagnetic alloy, the various methods of determination of Curie temperature T_c give the same value, which in this case is (564 ± 1) K. The critical exponent γ is 1.7 ± 0.1. Our low-field susceptibility measurements on Metglas 2605 (Fe₈₀B₂₀) gives a T_c of (634 ± 3) K while the reported high-field method value is 647 K. These results are discussed in terms of crystallization temperatures.     

Magnetic and Mössbauer Studies of Fe<Subscript>76</Subscript>Mo<Subscript>8</Subscript>Cu<Subscript>1</Subscript>B<Subscript>15</Subscript> Amorphous Alloy

“Zero field”-Mössbauer and magnetization measurements have been performed on an amorphous Fe₇₆Mo₈Cu₁B₁₅ alloy in the temperature range of (10-340) K. The room-temperature Mössbauer spectrum exhibits magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole interactions. At approximately 306 K, the magnetic interactions vanish and the alloy shows fully paramagnetic behavior. On the other hand, the relative representation of paramagnetic component becomes weak with decreasing temperature and below 220 K the magnetic dipole interactions prevail. Below this temperature an anomaly in the low-temperature dependencies of ac susceptibility and of magnetization, measured during cooling the specimen from 340 K down to 20 K is observed. The anomaly on the magnetization curve vanishes in the field of 200 Oe.

Reentrant superconductivity in the orthorhombic system (Tm1−xLux)RuB2

The boundaries between the paramagnetic, superconducting and magnetically ordered phases in the orthorhombic pseudoternary system (Tm_1?xLu_x)RuB₂ have been established by means of ac magnetic susceptibility measurements down to 1.2 K. Reentrant superconductivity occurs between x = 0.52 and x ? 0.68. The absence of coexistence between superconductivity and long range magnetic order in this region suggests a ferromagnetic-like nature of the magnetic state. The initial linear depression of superconducting transition temperature (T_c) gives a coupling constant value N(E_F)$\text{J}$² between conduction electrons and magnetic Tm³⁺ moments of 6.7 × 10^?4 eV-atom-states/ spin direction.     

Magnetic and ESR studies of Er3+ in lanthanum dihydride LaH2

Er³⁺ electron spin resonance ESR and magnetic susceptibility have been studied in metallic lanthanum dihydride host. The ESR spectrum contains a single asymmetrical line with g-factor g = 6.68 ± 0.05 close to that expected for Γ₇ as ground state. The experimental magnetic susceptibility was interpreted on the base of LLW cubic crystal field Hamiltonian. The best fit of the experimental data has been obtained for the following B₄ and B₆ crystal field parameters: B₄ = ?5.2 × 10^?3 K; B₆ = 3.8 × 10^?5 K which support the anionic-like character hydridic model of hydrogen atoms in this hydride.     

Thermal and magnetic studies of the nearly one-dimensional antiferromagnetic system CsNiBr3

Magnetic susceptibility, specific heat and ¹³³Cs magnetic resonance measurements in a single crystal of CsNiBr₃ are reported. The data reveal two magnetic transitions separating the paramagnetic phase from the antiferromagnetic ground state. At the higher transition temperature T_N2 = (14.25 ± 0.05)K a net magnetic moment is observed only along the hexagonal c-axis, while only below the lower transition temperature T_N1 = (11.75 ± 0.05)K a perpendicular component of the magnetic moment appears also. Above T_N2 CsNiBr₃ can be described as a one-dimensional antiferromagnet with intrachain exchange interaction $\text{J}\text{k}{}_{\mathrm{B}}\text{= ?(17.0 ± 0.2)}\text{K}$ and single-ion anisotropy constant $\text{D}\text{k}{}_{\mathrm{B}}\text{? ?1.5}\text{K}$. Below T_N1, the data are consistent with the non-colinear triangular structure of the Ni²⁺ moments proposed previously for the isomorphic crystal CsNiCl₃. A reduced value of the zero-temperature susceptibility over the classical value is found and atrributed to the zero point deviations.     

Magnetic susceptibility and electrical conductivity of transition-metal platinum oxides: Evidence for one-dimensional electronic interactions

Bulk magnetic susceptibility measurements have been made on the orthorhombic compounds CoPt₃O₆, MnPt₃O₆, and NiPt₃O₆, and the structurally related cubic phase Co_0.37Na_0.14Pt₃O₄, in the temperature range 300-4 K. These compounds, which are rather unusual in that they contain first-row transition metals in eight coordination, are all paramagnetic above 25 K and show Curie-Weiss behavior with effective magnetic moments μ_eff(Co) = 4.8 ± 0.2μ_B,μ_eff(Mn) = 5.8 ± 0.1 μ_B, μ_eff(Ni) = 3.9 ± 0.2 μ_B, and μ_eff(Co) = 4.2 ± 0.5 μ_B, respectively. The inverse susceptibilities of CoPt₃O₆ and MnPt₃O₆ exhibit deviations from Curie-Weiss behavior below 25 K, and a minimum is observed for CoPt₃O₆ at about 8K. Single-crystal electrical conductivity measurements along the c-axis (σ_∥) in CoPt₃O₆ and MnPt₃O₆ show these materials to be semiconducting, but with relatively high conductivities and low activation energies σ_∥ (294 K) = 40 Ω^?1-cm^?1 and E_a = 0.07 eV for CoPt₃O₆ and σ_∥ (303 K) = 111Ω^?1cm^?1 and E_a = 0.02 eV for CoPt₃O₆. The results for CoPt₃O₆. MnPt₃O₆, and NiPt₃O₆are discussed in terms of their anisotropic structures, which favor magnetic coupling in one-dimension along linear arrays of eight-coordinated paramagnetic ions and one-dimensional electrical conduction along columnar stacks of planar PtO₄ groups containing partially oxidized linear chains of platinum. One-dimensional electronic interactions in MPt₃O₆ compounds are suggested by metal-metal distances along the c-axis of 3&#x0303;.1 A for both the platinum and the 3d transition metal ions, compared to a distance of 6.1 A between the chains in the perpendicular plane. These materials and their electronic properties are compared with systems with well characterized examples of one-dimensional magnetic coupling and electrical conductivity.     

Muon Knight shift in palladium

The Knight shift at positive muons implanted in pure palladium has been measured as a function of temperature from 19.8 to 883 K. The Knight shift variation is strictly proportional to the Pd magnetic susceptibility with ΔK^μ/Δ_x=-(0.43±0.02) mole/emu=-(2.39±0.11)kG/μ_B. A temperature independent term K^μ(x=0)=+45±10 ppm is found. The results are discussed in terms of the electronic structure of H in Pd.     

Valence and magnetic states of impurity iron ions in the La<Subscript>0.75</Subscript>Sr<Subscript>0.25</Subscript>Co<Subscript>0.98</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>0.02</Subscript>O<Subscript>3</Subscript> perovskite

The local magnetic and valence states of impurity iron ions in the rhombohedral La_0.75Sr_0.25Co_0.98 ⁵⁷Fe_0.02O₃ perovskite were studied using Mössbauer spectroscopy in the temperature range 87–293 K. The Mössbauer spectra are described by a single doublet at 215–293 K. The spectra contained a paramagnetic and a ferromagnetic component at 180–212 K and only a broad ferromagnetic sextet at T < 180 K. The results of the studies showed that, over the temperature range 87–295 K, the iron ions are in a single (tetrahedral) state with a valence of +3. In the temperature range 180–212 K, two magnetic states of Fe³⁺ ions were observed, one of which is in magnetically ordered microregions and the other, in paramagnetic microregions; these states are due to atomic heterogeneity. In the magnetically ordered microregions in the temperature range 87–212 K, the magnetic state of the iron ions is described well by a single state with an average spin S = 1.4 ± 0.2 and a magnetic moment μ(Fe) = 2.6 ± 0.4μ _B .     

Critical nuclear relaxation in cobalt metal

Nuclear magnetic resonance of cobalt metal was investigated in the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic states and in the critical region below T_c. The Knight shift and spin lattice relaxation times were measured in the paramagnetic phase in the solid and liquid states from 1578 K to 1825 K. The resonant frequency, spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation times were measured in the ferromagnetic phase from room temperature to 1385 K. The main part of (T₁T)^-1 results from fluctuating orbital moments in both phases except near T_c where this process forms the background for critical spin relaxation. The critical exponents for T^-1₁ and for the magnetization in the ferromagnetic state were found to be n' = 0.96 ± 0.07 and β = 0.308 ± 0.012, respectively.     

Peculiarities of the band magnetism in the higher manganese silicide

Magnetism of MnSi_x, x=1.746 (Mn₂₇Si₄₇) was investigated by SANS, neutron diffraction, magnetization and magnetic susceptibility measurements. MnSi_x single crystalline specimens were characterized by X-ray and neutron diffraction. A spiral spin structure with periodicity ?=(163±4) Å along the c axis and a spiral component of the magnetic moment per Mn of p_o=0.056 was determined. From the field dependence of ? it is indicated that the magnetic order below T_N=42 K is an incommensurate state. From the large difference of the magnetic moments in the paramagnetic state and ordered state MnSi_x is classified as an itinerant magnet. Below T_N the difference of the magnetic moments per Mn between p_o=0.056 at H = 0 from SANS and p_s = 0.014 at saturation field from magnetization measurements is explained by longitudinal spin fluctuations.
