We have studied the crystal structure of fully deuterated BH3NH3 using powder neutron diffraction at different temperatures. It is evident that an order-disorder phase transition occurs around 225 K. At low temperature, the compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic structure with space group Pnm21 and gradually transforms to a high temperature tetragonal structure with space group I4 mm above 225 K. At 16 K, the BD3-ND3 unit stacks along the c axis with a tilt angle of about 16° between the N-B bond and the c axis. As the temperature is increased, the BD3-ND3 groups start to reorient along the c …

The influence of hydrogenation on the spin reorientation in the presence of neodymium was investigated in NdFe11Ti and NdFe11TH. The magnetic properties of these compounds were determined by utilizing ac magnetic susceptibility, thermomagnetic, and iron-57 Mössbauer spectral analysis. It was found that the these compounds had two advantages as hard magnetic materials such as: a high iron content yielding high magnetization and a high Curie temperature. The investigation results show that these compounds undergo a spin-reorientation transition at ~185 K and at 100± K, from an axial magnetic phase at high temperature to a basal magnetic …

The structural and magnetic properties of Tm2Fe17 and Tm2Fe17D3.2 are investigated by means of x-ray-diffraction, thermal, and ac magnetic susceptibility measurements, and iron-57 Mössbauer spectroscopy. Both compounds crystallize in a hexagonal P63/mmc space group with a Th2Ni17-like structure. Deuterium insertion into Tm2Fe17 induces large increases in the unit-cell volume, the saturation magnetization, and the ordering temperature. The unit-cell expansion is anisotropic, with a larger increase in the a lattice parameter than the c lattice parameter. A spin reorientation is observed at 90 K …

The structural and magnetic properties of the Er2Fe17Hx compounds, where x is 0, 1, 2, 3, and 3.8, have been investigated by means of powder x-ray diffraction, thermal and ac magnetic susceptibility measurements, and iron-57 Mössbauer spectroscopy. The Er2Fe17Hx compounds crystallize in the hexagonal P63/mmc space group with the Th2Ni17-like structure, a structure which has both an iron-rich stoichiometry and disorder of the erbium and iron-iron 4f-4f dumbbell sites. The increase in the lattice parameters, the magnetic ordering temperature, the saturation magnetization, and the …
