Low-temperature properties of Ca-doped YbMnO3 multiferroic single crystals

Abstract: The specific heat cp and magnetization of single crystal hexagonal manganites of the type Yb1−xCaxMnO3 (x = 0, 0.05, and 0.10) were measured in a wide temperature range as a function of magnetic field. Antiferromagnetic ordering of the Mn sublattice occurs at TN = 83 K. Ca doping has surprisingly minimal effect on the magnetic properties. At low temperature (∼3.5 K), all compounds show ferromagnetic (FM) ordering in the basal plane attributed to Yb in site 2a. For low fields applied along the c direction, Yb s… Show more

“…The larger molecular field for x = 0.05 sample results in higher T N as observed. These molecular field and Schottky gap values are nearly the same as reported values in literature[10,11].C mag /T vs. T curves for YbMnO 3 and Yb 0.95 Mg 0.05 MnO 3 are shown in…”

“…A Schottky anomaly is also observed at $ 6.7 K due to Yb 3 þ ions in site 4b in the Mn molecular field [8]. The value of the energy splitting due to the molecular field of Mn is given by Δ sch ¼2m Yb H mf , where m Yb is the moment of Yb in the site 4b, and H mf is the effective molecular field at Yb 4b sites.…”
