CoH2P2O7 and NiH2P2O7, which contain edge-sharing zigzag octahedral chains, were hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. Both compounds exhibit field-induced metamagnetic behavior because of the strong intrachain ferromagnetic and relatively weak interchain antiferromagnetic interactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
