Title

Determination of the magnetic structures of eight Yb1-xRxMn6Sn6 alloys (R = Sc or Zr with 0.1 < x < 0.9) between 320 K and 2 K.

Abstract

We wish to investigate the composition and temperature dependence of the magnetic structure in two freshly stabilized related series of alloys, namely Yb1-xScxMn6Sn6 (0 < x < 1) and Yb1-xZrxMn6Sn6 (0 < x < 0.4). DC magnetization data have shown a paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition near room temperature. At lower temperature the Mn sublattice evolves towards antiferromagnetic-like states. Powder neutron diffraction using D1B diffractometer is essential to determine magnetic structures of some representative compositions of Yb1-xRxMn6Sn6 (R = Sc or Zr). Results should precise the influence of the R valency and interatomic distances upon the Mn sublattice magnetic behavior in these alloys.
