We report the synthesis and magnetic characterization of stuffed rare-earth gallium garnets, RE3+ x Ga5–x O12 (RE= Lu, Yb, Er, Dy, Gd), for x up to 0.5. The excess rare-earth ions …
Magnetic Er3+ is doped into the well-studied frustrated normal spinel ZnCr2O4. Various spectroscopies are employed to prove that Er3+ successfully enters the spinel to form ZnCr2 …
