Crystal structure and EPR of the RbNd(WO4)2 single crystal

Magnetic Properties of the RbNd(WO4)2Single Crystal

“…RbNdW belongs to the monoclinic system with space group C2/c, which is isostructural with α-KY(WO 4 ) 2 [1][2][3]. This crystal is usually grown by high temperature solution method in order to obtain the low temperature monoclinic phase.…”

“…At present, the AReW tungstates having the low-symmetric (e.g., monoclinic) crystalline structure and the atom arrangements in forms of chains or layers are intensively studied. Structural, optical, and magnetic investigations of the KDyW, KHoW, KErW, KGdW, KYbW, KTmW and RbDyW compounds were performed earlier [1,[4][5][6][7][8]. Many of them show complicated structural phase transitions (SPT), caused by the cooperative Jahn-Teller effect (CJTE), and magnetic phase transitions.…”

“…Many of them show complicated structural phase transitions (SPT), caused by the cooperative Jahn-Teller effect (CJTE), and magnetic phase transitions. Unlike the high symmetry crystals, they are characterized by strong magnetic anisotropy, low local symmetry and low-dimensional magnetic structure, and they exhibit strong spin-lattice coupling [1,[8][9][10]. The rubidium neodymium double tungstate was also studied, especially its structural and spectroscopic properties [1][2][3].…”

The low temperature magnetic properties of potassium holmium double tungstate

“…They are characterized by a strong magnetic anisotropy, low local symmetry, lowdimensional magnetic structure and exhibit strong spinlattice coupling [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. The unusual physical properties of RE double tungstates are attributed by the partly filled 4 -electron shell of rare earth ions [10,11].…”
