Description

YMn12 crystallizes in the I4/mmm tetragonal body-centred structure. Neutron diffraction experiments give evidence for an anti-ferromagnetic structure (Tsub(N) = 120 K) in the tetragonal cell. The magnetic structure has been determined with the help of group theory. The mean Mn magnetic moment is 0.4μsub(B). In spite of the non-colinear arrangement of magnetic moments strong negative anisotropic interactions are evidenced. As it is observed in pure Mn and in rare earth-Fe compounds, these interactions are strongly distance dependent. (author)
