Unconventional Metallic Magnetism in LaCrSb{3}
arXiv:cond-mat/0207652 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.89.107204
Abstract
Neutron-diffraction measurements in LaCrSb{3} show a coexistence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic sublattices below Tc=126 K, with ordered moments of 1.65(4) and 0.49(4) Bohr magnetons per formula unit, respectively (T=10 K), and a spin reorientation transition at ~95 K. No clear peak or step was observed in the specific heat at Tc. Coexisting localized and itinerant spins are suggested.
