Magnetic structure of the inverse perovskite (Ce3N)In

Nitrides with Inverse K2[NiF4] Structure: (R1–xCa3+xN1–x/3)Bi2 with R = Rare‐Earth Metal

“…For inverse cubic Perovskite nitrides a nitrogen deficiency was frequently observed, however, typically only for phases with metallic properties as, e.g., (Ce 3 N x )In with x = 0.92 [5,35] or (A 3 N x )Sn with x ≈ 0.7 and A = Sr, Ba [9]. For semiconducting phases the nitrogen deficiency must be charge balanced to retain this very property.…”

Metal‐Rich Ternary Perovskite Nitrides

“…The commensurate zero-field magnetic structure of (Ce 3 N)In was determined from powder neutron diffraction. [42] The magnetic ordering can be represented with three antiferromagnetic substructures with magnetic components localized on Ce 3+ ions orientated parallel to the orthogonal crystallographic axes. High-field magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal multistep metamagnetic behavior with different numbers of steps for (Ce 3 N)In, (Pr 3 N)In and (Nd 3 N)In.…”

Alkaline‐earth Metal Nitrides of the Main‐Group Elements: Crystal Structures and Properties of Inverse Perovskites

“…All these earlier investigations focused on the general electronic structures and chemical bonding properties of the compounds. Starting in the year 2006 a series of studies using electronic structure calculations from different groups around the world appeared emphasizing optical, thermal, mechanical and electronic properties mostly of the semiconducting representatives with E (15). (Mg 3 N)As, (Ca 3 N)Sb, (Ca 3 N)Bi, and (Sr 3 N)E(15) with E(15) = As, Sb, Bi were found to exhibit direct bandgaps, while the bandgap of (Mg 3 N)Sb is indirect.…”

“…In this review, the focus lies on alkaline-earth metal nitrides with main group constituents E (13), E (14), and E (15) and Perovskite related crystal structures. Since a large group of compounds considered crystallizes in the cubic (anti)Perovskite structure type and variants thereof, it is convenient to reflect on this crystal structure and related arrangements at this point.…”
