Description
We have performed powder neutron diffraction measurements of filled skutterudite compound TbRu4P12 in order to investigate the magnetic structure of successive two magnetic transitions (TN=20K and T1=10K). Magnetic peaks appeared at (h,k,l) (h+k+l=odd) positions below TN, which indicate the presence of an antiferromagnetic ordering below TN. The data can be well explained assuming that spins on Tb atoms at corner and center of body-centered cubic unit cell are oriented in the opposite direction. Magnetic moment on Tb ions is estimated to be 8.3μB/Tb. TbRu4P12 is the first antiferromagnet with filled skutterudite structure confirmed by neutron diffraction
