An Influence of the Local Environment on Local Magnetic Moments and Hyperfine Fields in Fe_3-xMn_xAl

Abstract:

Ferromagnetic, intermetallic compound Fe3Al exhibits DO3-type crystal structure. There are two non-equivalent types of iron with different chemical neighbourhood – (A,C) and B sublattices. As a consequence of the different nearest environments of the iron atoms at these sites the different electronic and magnetic properties connected with these positions are observed. The aim of our research is to investigate the influence of the local surrounding of the iron on its magnetic moment and hyperfine field in compound Fe3-xMnxAl where iron is substituted by manganese.
