Dilute magnetism and vibrational entropy inFe2Al5

Abstract: Fe2Al5 contains a Fe-Al matrix through which are threaded disordered one-dimensional chains of overlapping Al sites. We report magnetic, NMR, and specific heat measurements addressing its magnetic and vibrational properties. The Curie-type susceptibility is found to be due to dilute moments, likely due to wrong-site Fe atoms.27 Al NMR shift and spin-lattice relaxation measurements confirm these to be indirectly coupled through an RKKY-type interaction. Specific heat results indicate a large density of low-ener… Show more

“…Noteworthy, the values of T D found from the center shift for the FeAl(II) sample, hence the one with a slightly higher content of Al are by 10% higher than the corresponding ones revealed for the FeAl(I) sample. It should be also noticed that our values of T D agree well with the one found from heat capacity measurements for Fe 2 Al 5 [6,10], but they are significantly smaller than the Debye temperature of 668 K calculated for the Fe 2 Al 5 intermetallic compound [11]. It should be, however, mentioned that inconsistencies between values of T D for a given material as determined with different methods are known because, in general, shapes of phonon density of states (PDS) are not parabolic.…”

“…This above-mentioned variety of intermetallics and their structures gives a unique opportunity for experimentalists to study their properties with various methods and techniques. For theoreticians these aluminides are usable to validate their models and calculations e. g. Fe 2 Al 5 and Fe 4 Al 13 as quasicrystal approximants [5,6].…”

“…That is, they correspond to oscillations along the channels. These low-frequency modes are able to create an appreciable excess entropy at temperatures as low as 30 K. 21 Comparing the free energies with the weighted average of mC102 and tI6, we find that oC24 is stabilized for temperatures greater than 320 K.…”
