Abstract: | It is shown that the M-N(2) and M-N(3) contacts control the cell dimensions of binary rare earth-manganese phases with the ThMn12 (MN12) structure. Such behaviour is quite different from that found for other binary and ternary phases with this structure, and it recalls similar differences found for rare earth-manganese phases with the MgCu2 structure compared with the rare earth phases of other transition metals. The cell dimensions of YMn12 are also discussed. |
