A neutron-diffraction investigation of a series of Pr2(Fe 1-xMnx)14B samples, with x values of 0.00, 0.11, 0.22, 0.30, and 0.35, reveals a preference for the manganese to occupy the 8j2 transition-metal site,the transition-metal site with the largest Wigner-Seitz cell volume. Similar site occupancies have been reported previously for Er2(Fe1-xMnx) 14B and Y2(Fe1-xMnx) 14B. An analysis of the 295-K Mössbauer spectrum of Pr2(Fe0.89Mn0.11)14B indicates that the internal hyperfine fields on the …


Neutron-Diffraction And Mössbauer Effect Study Of The Preferential Silicon Site Occupation And Magnetic Structure Of Nd₂Fe₁₄₋ₓsiₓb, Gaya Kanishka Marasinghe, Oran Allan Pringle, Gary J. Long, William Joseph James, Dianne J. Xiao, J. L. Li, William B. Yelon, Fernande Grandjean Nov 1993

A neutron-diffraction study of Nd2Fe14-xSixB has shown that silicon preferentially occupies the 4c site in the transition-metal sublattice in Nd2Fe14B. Silicon also exhibits a moderate preference for the 8j1 site, is almost excluded from the 16k2 site, and avoids the 16k1, 8j2, and 4e sites. The silicon site occupancy is correlated with a preference for a silicon atom to have rare-earth atoms in its coordination environment. The Mössbauer spectra of Nd2Fe14-xSixB have been fit with a model which …


A Neutron Diffraction And Mössbauer Effect Study Of The Magnetic Structure Of Y₂(Fe₁₋ₓmnₓ)₁₄B, Gaya Kanishka Marasinghe, Oran Allan Pringle, Gary J. Long, William Joseph James, William B. Yelon, Fernande Grandjean May 1993

The magnetic structures of a series of Y2(Fe 1-xMnx)14B samples, with x equal to 0.03, 0.10, 0.25, and 0.37, have been studied by powder neutron diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Y2(Fe0.97Mn 0.03)14B and Y2(Fe0.9Mn 0.1)14B are ferromagnetic at both 295 and 85 K, Y 2(Fe0.63Mn0.37)14B is paramagnetic at both 295 and 85 K, whereas Y2(Fe0.75Mn 0.25)14B is paramagnetic at 295 K and is partially ordered at …
