Magneto-optical properties of RMn6Sn6 (R=Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Lu) single crystals

Magnetovolume effects in substituted Er1−xGdxMn6Sn6 intermetallics

“…Among them, a great number of publications have been devoted to RMn 6 Sn 6 compounds (with R ¼ Sc, Y, GdeTm and Lu), including magnetization measurements [1e3], neutron diffraction [4], Mössbauer spectroscopy [4], NMR spectroscopy [5], transport, magnetotransport [6], magneto-optical measurements [7], and some theoretical studies on their electronic structure [8]. All these compounds crystallize in the hexagonal HfFe 6 Ge 6 -type structure with space group P6/mmm (Fig.…”

Phase relationships in the Ho–Mn–Ti ternary system at 773K

“…Recently, the magnetic properties of alloys and compounds including Ho and Mn have been studied [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Alloys of Mn-Ti system and compounds based on Mn and Ti are of outstanding hydrogen absorbing performance and they attract more attentions.…”

Magnetic properties of the HoMn6−xFexSn6 compounds

“…Since T atoms carry a magnetic moment in RT 6 Sn 6 (T = Fe or Mn) compounds, these compounds have attracted much attention recently [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16].…”

“…The RMn 6 Sn 6 (R = Sc, Y, Gd-Tm, Lu) compounds crystallize in the HfFe 6 Sn 6 -type structure (space group: P6/mmm) [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], which can be described as built of alternate (0 0 1) layers containing R and Mn atoms, respectively. According to the magnetic measurements [3], the RMn 6 Sn 6 (R = Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) compounds are ferrimagnetic below 435, 423, 393 and 373 K, respectively.…”
