主 题:Pd Ga Structures and Magnetic Properties of Europium-Transition Metal-Gallium Ternary Intermetallic Compounds with 1 Type Eu
摘 要:The crystal structures and magnetic properties of novel Eu TrGa3-r (T=Pd, It, Rh) in termetallic compounds are investigated by using powder x-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. EuTrGa3-r crystallizes in orthorhombic structure with space group of Cmcm and Z = 4. There are four kinds of nonequivalent 4c crystal positions in EuTrGaa-r unit cell, which are occupied by 4Eu, 4GaⅠ, 4(GaⅡ, T) and 4GaⅢ, respectively. EuTrGa3-r ex- hibits the complex magnetic states in low-temperature regime, with the three-, two- and one-antiferromagnetic transitions occurring for T=Ir, T=Rh and T=Pd, respectively. It might be due to the Kondo effect: a localized antiferromagnetic interaction of the isolated impurity spins with the surrounding conduction electrons at low-temperature regime.
