Description
Neutron diffraction measurements reveal a magnetic phase transition in TbCo2Ge2 from a collinear antiferromagnetic order with the k-vector [001] to an incommensurate sine-modulated magnetic structure described by the wave vector k=[0,0,1-kz] kz=0.055(2). The transition occurs near the Neel point at 34 K. In both phases the magnetic moments localized on Tb3+ ions are parallel to the tetragonal axis. (author)
