“…Ab initio calculation of the magnetic moment per Mn in the compound Mn 1/3 TiSe 2 has given the value of 3.35 B only [9]. Moreover, the high-field magnetization measurements performed at low temperatures for some intercalated compounds Cr 0.5 TiSe 2 [7], Cr x TiTe 2 [13] and M x TiS 2 (M = Fe, Mn, Co, Ni [14]) have shown that the magnetic moment per intercalated guest atom in saturation, µ S , is appreciably lower than that expected from the localized electron model. These data indicate the itinerant character of the M 3d-electrons.…”
