In recent years there have been exciting developments in techniques for producing
multilayered structures of different materials, often with thicknesses as small as only a few …

Laves phases crystallize in simple structures and are very common intermetallic phases that
can form from combinations of elements throughout the periodic table, giving a huge number …

We have studied the magnetic and crystal structures of different Laves hydrides R Mn 2 H
4.5 (R= Y, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho), having the cubic C 15 structure at high temperature. We observe …

Studies of the electrical resistivity were carried out under applied hydrostatic pressure up to
20 kbar and in the temperature range from 1.5 K to room temperature. The heavy R Mn 2 …

We have studied the magnetic and crystal structures of the hexagonal Laves phases R Mn 2
H x (R= E r, T m, L u; x= 4.2, 4.6) by powder neutron diffraction. Hydrogen occupies …

The effects of A1 substitution for Mn on the magnetic and thermal properties of TbMn2 have
been studied by measuring the temperature dependence of the magnetization, the thermal …

The magnetism of RMn 2 and their pseudo-binary systems are reviewed in stressing the role
of frustration for magnetic ordering. Mn moments in RMn 2 with the C15 structure are highly …

Powder samples of cubic HoMn2Hx hydrides, with 0≤ x≤ 4.3, have been investigated by X-
ray diffraction and AC/DC magnetometry as a function of temperature and external magnetic …

GdMn2, one of the RMn2 Laves phases, represents an interesting example of a frustrated
3D Mn sublattice. Magnetization vs. temperature and Mössbauer spectroscopy on …

Abstract In Ho (Mn 0.9 Al 0.1) 2, applying pressure results in the occurrence of several
magnetic phase transitions. The disordered phase disappears and long-range ordered …
