ABSTRACTThe bulk magnetic properties of (ErxY1-x)2Fe14B and (ErxPr1-x)2Fe14B systems were studied over the temperature range 4.2-1100 K. Lattice parameters, saturation magnetizations, Curie temperatures and spin reorientation temperatures were determined. Theoretical description of the detailed magnetic behavior is presented, based on a crystal field model. The (ErxY1-x)2Fe14B compounds were all found to exhibit plane-to-axis spin reorientations similar to that observed for Er2Fe14B, with the transition temperature decreasing with increasing Y content. In contrast, the spin reorientations in the (ErxPr1-x)2Fe14B systems appear to be of the cone-to-axis type. Since higher order crystal field terms appear to be significant only in the cases of Nd3+ and Ho3+, the results are discussed in terms of a crystal field Hamiltonian involving only 2nd order terms. Using known values of the exchange field, Fe anisotropy and the ratios of the crystal field coefficients, the multi-ion cr 6.tal field problem was formulated in terms of a single adjustable parameter (B02(f). It is shown that 2nd order crystal field terms are capable, not only of explaining the conical anisotropy of the (ErxPr1-x)2Fe14B systems, but also the decrease in the Er moment upon passing through the spin reorientation (as has been observed for Er2Fe14B). The magnetic structure of Er1.5Pr0.5Fe14B is also predicted.

Specific heat and thermal expansion measurements have been performed on Nd1−xLUxMn2 in the temperature range between 1.5K and 300K. Below 10K, anomalies are observed which are ascribed to a spin reorientation of the Nd sublattice. These anomalies are only slightly affected by the substitution of Nd by Lu. Large effects, however, are observed on the magnetic properties of the Mn sublattice. The antiferromagnetic order disappears for x exceeding 0.30. The data are analysed in terms of Grüneisen parameters. In the paramagnetic compound LuMn2, a spin-fluctuation contribution to the thermodynamic properties is observed. In the Nd-containing compounds, distinct contributions from the crystal field acting on the Nd ions can be distinguished. The variation of the magnetic properties of the Mn sublattice with the concentration of Lu is discussed.

The R 3 Co 11 B 4 compounds belong to the R n+1 Co 3n+5 B 2n intermetallic systems. The R 3 Co 11 B 4 borides crystallize in a hexagonal structure of Ce 3 Co 11 B 4 type having the space group P6/mmm. The composition dependencies of the lattice parameters in ( Y 1-x Tb x)3 Co 11 B 4 compounds are linear and different for a and c parameters. The magnetic properties of ( Y 1-x Tb x)3 Co 11 B 4 compounds were investigated in the temperature range 4.2–950 K and external fields up to 10 T. The Y 3 Co 11 B 4 compound is ferromagnetically ordered. For the compounds with x>0, a ferrimagnetic ordering is evidenced. The Curie temperatures increase when yttrium is substituted by terbium, as a consequence of the increase of the exchange interactions in the system. The magnetic behavior of cobalt in the above system is analyzed.

AbstractThe magnetic and magnetodielectric properties of Ho_0.5Nd_0.5Fe_3(BO_3)_4 ferroborate with the competing Ho–Fe and Nd–Fe exchange couplings have been experimentally and theoretically investigated. Step anomalies in the magnetization curves at the spin-reorientation transition induced by the magnetic field B ║ c have been found. The spontaneous spin-reorientation transition temperature T _SR ≈ 8 K has been refined. The measured magnetic properties and observed features are interpreted using a single theoretical approach based on the molecular field approximation and calculations within the crystal field model of the rare-earth ion. Interpretation of the experimental data includes determination of the crystal field parameters for Ho^3+ and Nd^3+ ions in Ho_0.5Nd_0.5Fe_3(BO_3)_4 and parameters of the Ho–Fe and Nd–Fe exchange couplings.

The single-crystal magnetic susceptibilities from 4.5 to 300 K, and the magnetizations at 4.5 K from 0.25 to 5 T, of Cs2KFe(CN)6 along a, b and c* are reported. The data are fitted well by a crystal field model with splitting of the ground-state 2T2g term of the hexacyanoferrate (III) ion. The three variable parameters of the model were the two representing the low-symmetry splitting of the t2g orbitals, and the effective reduction in the orbital angular momentum. Four other parameters were fixed at values known or estimated from other experiments on hexacyanoferrate (III) ions, including polarized neutron diffraction which determines the orientation of lower-symmetry crystal field components. The crystal field has only inversion symmetry with respect to the ligand axes, with a non-cubic component which is almost uniaxial with respect to the a,b,c * axis system.
