We report near room temperature ferromagnetic as well as low temperature antiferromagnetic correlations in Mn doped Cobalt Tellurate (CMTO) solid solutions using thorough magnetization studies. For all the composition the solid solutions show not only short range robust FM order at 185 K but also show long range enhanced AFM order less than or equal to 45 K. Scaling of inverse magnetic susceptibility data provide clear indication of Griffiths like FM phase extended over large thermal region and its robustness against magnetic field. Variations in both the phases as a function of Mn concentration also support our observation of anomalous behavior in the average bond distances and charge states (JAP 116: 074904 (2014)). Further an attempt towards the structural insight into the observed complex magnetic behavior by using network like structural analysis has been drawn. These observations make this an interesting magnetic system from fundamental and application perspective.

The perovskite TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ shows two anomalies in the magnetic susceptibility at $T_N$ = 257K and $T_{SR}$ = 190K which are respectively, the antiferromagnetic and spin reorientation transition that occur in the Fe/Cr sublattice. Analysis of the magnetic susceptibility reveals signatures of Griffiths-like phase in this compound. Neutron diffraction analysis confirms that, as the temperature is reduced from 350K, a spin reorientation transition from $Gamma_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) to $Gamma_4$ (G$_x$, A$_y$, F$_z$) occurs at $T_N$ = 257K and subsequently, a second spin reorientation takes place from $Gamma_4$ (G$_x$, A$_y$, F$_z$) to $Gamma_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) at $T_{SR}$ = 190K. The $Gamma_2$ (F$_x$, C$_y$, G$_z$) structure is stable until 7.7K where an ordered moment of 7.74(1)$mu_mathrm B$/Fe$^{3+}$(Cr$^{3+}$) is obtained from neutron data refinement. In addition to the long-range order of the magnetic structure, indication of diffuse magnetic scattering at 7.7K is evident, thereby lending support to the Griffiths-like phase observed in susceptibility. At 7.7K, Tb develops a ferromagnetic component along the crystallographic $a$ axis. Thermal conductivity, and spin-phonon coupling of TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ through Raman spectroscopy are studied in the present work. An antiferromagnetic structure with ($uparrow downarrow uparrow downarrow$) arrangement of Fe/Cr spins is found in the ground state through first-principles energy calculations which supports the experimental magnetic structure at 7.7K. The spin-resolved total and partial density of states are determined showing that TbFe$_{0.5}$Cr$_{0.5}$O$_3$ is insulating with a band gap of $sim 0.12$ (2.4) eV within GGA (GGA+$U$) functionals.
La$_{1.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$CoMn$_{0.5}$Fe$_{0.5}$O$_{6}$ (LSCMFO) compound was prepared by solid state reaction and its structural, electronic and magnetic properties were investigated. The material forms in rhombohedral $Rbar{3}c$ structure, and the presence of distinct magnetic interactions leads to the formation of a Griffiths phase above its FM transition temperature (150 K), possibly related to the nucleation of small short-ranged ferromagnetic clusters. At low temperatures, a spin glass-like phase emerges and the system exhibits both the conventional and the spontaneous exchange bias (EB) effects. These results resemble those reported for La$_{1.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$CoMnO$_{6}$ but are discrepant to those found when Fe partially substitutes Co in La$_{1.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$(Co$_{1-x}$Fe$_{x}$)MnO$_{6}$, for which the EB effect is observed in a much broader temperature range. The unidirectional anisotropy observed for LSCMFO is discussed and compared with those of resembling double-perovskite compounds, being plausibly explained in terms of its structural and electronic properties.
We measure the magnetic penetration depth $Deltalambda(T)$ for NdO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$BiS$_{2}$ ($x$ = 0.3 and 0.5) using the tunnel diode oscillator technique. The $Deltalambda(T)$ shows an upturn in the low-temperature limit which is attributed to the paramagnetism of Nd ions. After subtracting the paramagnetic contributions, the penetration depth $Deltalambda(T)$ follows exponential-type temperature dependence at $Tll T_c$. Both $Deltalambda(T)$ and the corresponding superfluid density $rho_s(T)$ can be described by the BCS model with an energy gap of $Delta(0)$ $approx$ 2.0 $k_BT_c$ for both $x$ = 0.3 and 0.5, suggesting strong-coupling BCS superconductivity in the presence of localized moments for NdO$_{1-x}$F$_{x}$BiS$_{2}$.
Orthorhombic single crystals of TbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 are found to exhibit spin-reorientation, magnetization reversal and weak ferromagnetism. Strong anisotropy effects are evident in the temperature dependent magnetization measurements along the three crystallographic axes a, b and c. A broad magnetic transition is visible at T_N (Fe/Mn) = 286 K due to paramagnetic to AxGyCz ordering. A sharp transition is observed at T_SR (Fe/Mn) = 28 K, which is pronounced along c axis in the form of a sharp jump in magnetization where the spins reorient to GxAyFz configuration. The negative magnetization observed below TSR Fe/Mn along c axis is explained in terms of domain wall pinning. A component of weak ferromagnetism is observed in field-scans along c-axis but below 28 K. Field-induced steps-like transitions are observed in hysteresis measurement along b axis below 28 K. It is noted that no sign of Tb-order is discernible down to 2 K. TbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 could be highlighted as a potential candidate to evaluate its magneto-dielectric effects across the magnetic transitions.
Critical points that can be suppressed to zero temperature are interesting because quantum fluctuations have been shown to dramatically alter electron gas properties. Here, the metal formed by Co doping the paramagnetic insulator FeS$_2$, Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$S$_2$, is demonstrated to order ferromagnetically at $x>x_c=0.01pm0.005$ where we observe unusual transport, magnetic, and thermodynamic properties. We show that this magnetic semiconductor undergoes a percolative magnetic transition with distinct similarities to the Griffiths phase, including singular behavior at $x_c$ and zero temperature.
