Spin-Reorientation Transition in Rare-Earth Intermetallics

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Tm2Fe17 compound has been studied by means of powder neutron diffraction. The compound undergoes a spin-reorientation transition (SRT) of the “easy axis – easy plane” type with increasing temperature from 75 K to 100 K. The SRT is accompanied by a distinct anomaly in the temperature dependencies of the Tm- and Fe-ion magnetizations, significative of large magnetization anisotropy. Using three sublattices model, the parameter of the Tm-Fe interaction and constants of magnetic anisotropy are determined.
