Magnetic structure investigation in rare-earth RTAl3 compounds
Intermetalic RTAl3 compounds crystallize in the ordered non-centrosymmeric tetragonal structure of BaNiSn3-type (space group 107, I4mm). In proposed experiment we plan to measure diffraction patterns on powder samples: NdCuAl3 and PrCuAl3. These compounds belong to materials studied within our broader project focused on existence of vibron states and their influence on magnetic and structural properties and vice versa. The magnetic structure of cerium analog was already determined by our previous neutron diffraction experiments and will serve as the reference for results obtained on Nd- and Pr-based compounds. Obtained results will be also compared with the density functional theory based band structure calculations.
