“…). In contrast to earlier observations by Dhar et al (21,22), who claimed for this compound a ferromagnetic ordering below 4.2 K, the characteristic maximum in our low temperature susceptibility data as a function of the magnetic field (0.5, 1, 5 kOe, see Fig. 6) suggests instead antiferromagnetic order below ¹ , "4.2 K. A further argument for the antiferromagnetic ground state comes from the behavior of the magnetization vs magnetic field, which at 1.7 K varies linearly up to 5 kOe, followed by a metamagnetic transition.…”

“…material. The silicide CeAlSi and the germanide CeAlGe along with their solid solutions to the Al-, respectively Si(Ge)-richer regions were studied with respect to structural and magnetic data [14,17,35,39,67,68]. The magnetic properties of CeAl 1+x Si 1-x are highly sensitive to the sample composition.…”

The equiatomic CeXX′ phases (X and X′ = elements of the 3 rd , 4 th , or 5 th main group) extend the large series of CeTX intermetallics (T = electron-rich transition metal). These phases crystallize with simple structure types, i.e. ZrNiAl, TiNiSi, CeScSi, α-ThSi 2 , AlB 2 , and GdSi 2 . In contrast to the CeTX intermetallics one observes pronounced solid solutions for the CeXX′ phases. The main influence on the magnetic ground states results from the absence of d electrons. All known CeXX′ phases show exclusively trivalent cerium and antiferro-or ferromagnetic ordering at low temperatures. The crystal chemical details and some structure-property relationships are reviewed.

“…The alloys of x ¼ 1 and 1.2 have the tetragonal a-ThSi 2 -type structure, while the alloy of x ¼ 1:5 has the hexagonal AlB 2 -type structure. The magnetic properties are dependent on the chemical elements [3]; CeAlSi is ferromagnetic with a Curie temperature of 7:1 K; whereas CeAlGe orders antiferromagnetically at 4 K: In the present work, we have extended this investigation to other ternary compounds with different rare-earth ions, which are RAl 0:9 Si 1:1 (R ¼ Ce; Pr; and Gd) and find that the magnetic properties are strongly varying with the rareearth elements.…”
