Investigations of the magnetic properties of the Yb6Mn23 intermetallic compound

Structural properties of Y1–x Yb x Ni2B2C synthesized at high pressure: EXAFS data analysis

“…Since it is impossible to synthesize Y-Yb compounds at normal conditions, the samples Y 1 x Yb x Ni 2 B 2 C with x 0.0; 0.01; 0.025; 0.05; 0.10; 0.15; 0.4; 1.0 were prepared at high pressure up to 8 GPa by melting YNi 2 , YbNi 2 , boron and carbon in the chamber of the "Toroid" type cell (Khvostantsev et al, 1977). The preparation procedure is described by Tsvyashchenko (1984). Compounds with x 0.05 demonstrate superconductivity with T c 8.2 K, 10.5 K and 12.5 K for x 0, 0.01 and 0.025, respectively.…”

Theoretical study of thermal and magneto‐electronic properties of YbX2 (X = Co and Fe) intermetallic compounds

“…In old investigation, C15‐YbFe 2 is synthesized under high pressure—high temperature conditions—by Meyer et al 4 In addition, the reported magnetic ground state is not ferromagnetic, but ferrimagnetic with a compensation point around 31 K. Michal Liberka et al 5 reported the near‐infrared emissive cyanido‐bridged (YbFe 2 ) molecular nanomagnets sensitive to the nitrile solvents of crystallization. The team of Tsvyashchenko et al 6 studied the magnetic moments values of ytterbium and iron ions with the neutron diffraction method using YbFe 2 powder. In a theoretical work, Tropers and coworkers 7 studied the systematics, at finite temperature, of the formation of local magnetic moments at a Ta impurity diluted in XFe 2 (X = Y, Gd and Yb) intermetallic Laves phases compounds using extended two‐coupled sublattice Hubbard Hamiltonian.…”
