Description

The influence that doping with Mn3+ ions has on the fine crystal structure of the monoclinic compound Ga2Se3 was studied by single-crystal neutron diffraction and the measurements of magnetic properties. It was found that the structural state of the crystals changes even at relatively low doping levels (x = 0.04). Local Jahn-Teller distortions were shown to be responsible for the formation of the fine structure and magnetism in this type of compounds.
