We report the results of magnetic resonance studies at high microwave frequencies in metallic, metamagnetic, poly crystalline MnAu2. The investigation covered microwave frequencies from 95 to 119 GHz, temperatures from 4.20 to 400 o K, and magnetic field intensities up to 50 kOe. No resonance was observed in the spiral magnetic phase at our frequencies. At fields above that necessary to induce a ferromagnetic component in the spiral-spin system, a temperatureand frequency-dependent peak was observed in the microwave power absorption, as a function of magnetic field applied in the plane of the disk-shaped sample. We have interpreted this absorption as ferromagnetic resonance in a system with large uni-axial magnetic anisotropy. Values of the Lande g-factor and uni-axial anisotropy constant at low temperatures are determined from the data, but with large experimental uncertainty due to severe magnetic hysteresis exhibited with field cycling.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
