Uncompensated magnetization in the layered molecular antiferromagnet {N(n-C5H11)4[MnIIFeIII(ox)3]}∞
Abstract Studies on the magnetic properties of the molecular antiferromagnetic material {N( n -C 5 H 11 ) 4 [Mn II Fe III (ox) 3 ]} ∞ , carried out by various physical techniques (AC/DC magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, heat capacity measurements and Mossbauer spectroscopy) at low temperatures, have been presented. Different experimental observations complement each other and provide a clue for the observation of an uncompensated magnetization below the Neel temperature and short-range correlations persisting high above T N . It is understood that the honeycomb layered structure of the compound contains non-equivalent magnetic sub-lattices, (Mn II –ox–Fe III A –...) and (Mn II –ox–Fe …
Heat-capacity anomaly due to spin reorientation and thermodynamic functions of ErFeO3 and TmFeO3
Abstract Heat capacities of orthoferrites, ErFeO 3 and TmFeO 3 , have been measured below room temperature by adiabatic calorimetry. A broad but definite anomaly due to the spin reorientation phenomenon was successfully detected in the expected temperature range (ca. 90 K). The results are compared with a vast anomaly reported for YbFeO 3 . The temperature dependence of the electric quadrupole splitting of the Fe nuclear levels was determined by Mossbauer spectroscopy through the spin reorientation. A heat capacity anomaly centered at 3.60 K due to the magnetic ordering of Er 3+ ions was clearly detected. Some Schottky anomalies were resolved and energy splittings involved were roughly esti…
