Magnetic susceptibility, ytterbium LIII-edge x-ray absorption and tin-119 Mössbauer spectral measurements have been carried out to probe the electronic structure of ytterbium and tin in the filled or partially filled skutterudite compounds, YbyCo4Sb12-xSnx, over a range of x and y values. The ytterbium valence obtained from the magnetic susceptibility and ytterbium LIII-edge x-ray absorption measurements is in excellent agreement and clearly reveals an evolution from intermediate valence ytterbium for x=0 to nearly divalent ytterbium for x=0.8. This evolution parallels an increase in the unit cell volume and hence …

The influence of the insertion of hydrogen into the crystal lattice of ErFe11Ti upon its spin reorientation was investigated. It was found that the insertion of hydrogen into ErFe11Ti to form ErFe11TiH expanded the lattice by 1% and increased the Curie temperature by 56 K. The presence of one titanium near neighbor in the environment of an iron site decreased the hyperfine field by ~2T and changed the isomer shift by ~0.05 mm/s.
