The magnetic, electronic and optical properties of HoRhGe

Magnetism in RRhGe (R=Tb, Dy, Er, Tm): An experimental and theoretical study

“…Further increase in field causes the magnitude of MR to decrease. A similar behavior has a lso been observed in HoRhGe [8]. Thus in compounds with R= Ho, Dy, Er the change in sign of MR with field is due to the metamagnetic transition.…”

“…The electronic band structure calculations and optical properties reveal that Rh has negligible magnetic moment in HoRhGe [8]. In this work, we have carried out a systematic study of RRhGe (R=Tb, Dy, Er, Tm) compounds by a number of experiments along with electronic band structure calculations.…”

Understanding the magnetic, electronic and optical properties of ternary rare earth intermetallic compound HoNiSi

“…One can note that the heat capacity shows a hump above the ordering temperature, which might be due to the Schottky anomaly. A similar anomaly is also seen in some other Ho compounds, [20] which arises due to the crystal field split ground state (Kramer doublet) of Ho ion.…”

Review on magnetic and related properties of RTX compounds

“…HoRhGe shows AFM ground state which transforms into FM state on the application of field [300]. The weak antiferromagnetic ordering was also confirmed in this compound by electronic band structure calculations [300].…”
