Spin-glass freezing in single-crystalline Pr2NiSi3
Source abstract
Abstract
A single crystal of Pr2NiSi3 was examined by means of x-ray diffraction, magnetization, ac susceptibility, heat capacity and electrical resistivity measurements performed in wide ranges of the temperature and external magnetic fields. The compound crystallizes with simple hexagonal AlB2-type unit cell with crystallographic disorder in the non-magnetic atom sublattice. The results indicate formation at low temperatures of a spin-glass state with characteristic freezing temperature Tf=3.2K, which most likely originates from intrinsic crystallographic disorder in the AlB2-type unit cell.
