Spin-glass to Overhauser-alloy transitions in Y-rare-earth and Sc-rare-earth alloys

  • 1. Imperial Coll. of Science and Technology, London (United Kingdom). Dept. of Physics

Description

Electrical resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements have been used to distinguish between spin-glass freezing and helical ordering via a conduction band spin density wave in solid solutions of Gd, Tb and Dy in Y and Sc. Spin-glass freezing is always found in the more dilute alloys with transitions to helical ordering at about 22 % to 24 % solute in all the Sc-based alloys, at about 2.6 % solute for Y-Gd and Y-Dy and at about 5 % Tb for Y-Tb.
