Crystal structure and magnetic properties of the new phase Mn3IrSi
Source abstract
Abstract
A new phase in the ternary Ir–Mn–Si system has been synthesised. From powder neutron diffraction data the crystal structure was determined to be of the AlAu4 type and to be described in the cubic space group P213 with the unit cell a=6.4973(3) A. Susceptibility measurements using a SQUID-magnetometer showed a transition typical of antiferromagnetism, with TN=210 K. Low temperature antiferromagnetic order is confirmed by extra peaks in neutron diffractograms recorded at 10 and 80 K.
