On the magnetic behaviour of light rare earth tungstates
Description
Measurements of magnetic susceptibilities of rare earth tungstates RE2(WO4)3 (with RE = Ce, Pr, Nd and Gd) are reported in the temperature range 3-300 K at a magnetic field of 1.2 X 106 A m-1. All the tungstates are found to be ferrimagnetic with ferrimagnetic Neel temperature lying in the range 20-30 K (30 K (Ce), 25 K (Pr), 20 K (Nd) and 20 K (Gd)). Values of effective magneton numbers agree fairly well with those of free tripositive rare earth ions. The results are discussed on the basis of a newly proposed model. (author)
