We present magnetic characterization of a binary rare-earth intermetallic compound Er5Si3, crystallizing in Mn5Si3-type hexagonal structure, through magnetization, heat-capacity, electrical resistivity, and magnetoresistance measurements. Our investigations confirm that the compound exhibits two magnetic transitions with decreasing temperature, first one at 35 K and the second one at 15 K. The present results reveal that the second magnetic transition is a disorder-broadened first-order transition, as shown by thermal hysteresis in the measured data. Another important finding is that, below 15 K, there is a magnetic-field-induced transition with a hysteretic effect with the electrical resistance getting unusually enhanced at this transition and the magnetorsistance (MR) is found to exhibit intriguing magnetic-field dependence indicating novel magnetic phase-co-existence phenomenon. It thus appears that this compound is characterized by interesting magnetic anomalies in the temperature-magnetic-field phase diagram.

Taking the pseudobinary C15-Laves phase compound Ce(Fe$_{0.96}$Al$_{0.04}$)$_2$ as a paradigm for studying a ferromagnetic(FM) to antiferromagnetic(AFM) phase transition, we present interesting thermomagnetic history effects in magnetotransport measu
rements across this FM-AFM transition. We argue that these distinctive hysteretic features can be used to identify the exact nature -first order or second order - of this kind of transition in magnetic systems where electrical transport is strongly correlated with the underlying magnetic order. A comparison is made with the similar FM-AFM transitions observed in Nd and Pr-based manganese compounds with perovskite-type structure.
We have investigated magneto-transport properties in a single crystal of pyrochore-type Nd2Ir2O7. The metallic conduction is observed on the antiferromagnetic domain walls of the all-in all-out type Ir-5d moment ordered insulating bulk state, that ca
n be finely controlled by external magnetic field along [111]. On the other hand, an applied field along [001] induces the bulk phase transition from insulator to semimetal as a consequence of the field-induced modification of Nd-4f and Ir-5d moment configurations. A theoretical calculation consistently describing the experimentally observed features suggests a variety of exotic topological states as functions of electron correlation and Ir-5d moment orders which can be finely tuned by choice of rare-earth ion and by magnetic field, respectively.
We report a pressure-induced phase transition in the frustrated kagome material jarosite at ~45 GPa, which leads to the disappearance of magnetic order. Using a suite of experimental techniques, we characterize the structural, electronic, and magneti
c changes in jarosite through this phase transition. Synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy experiments, analyzed in aggregate with the results from density functional theory calculations, indicate that the material changes from a R-3m structure to a structure with a R-3c space group. The resulting phase features a rare twisted kagome lattice in which the integrity of the equilateral Fe3+ triangles persists. Based on symmetry arguments we hypothesize that the resulting structural changes alter the magnetic interactions to favor a possible quantum paramagnetic phase at high pressure.
Strain induced by a magnetic field is a common phenomenon for ferromagnets, but few antiferromagnets show large strain induced by a magnetic field. On the basis of linear strain measurements of sintered samples of triangular antiferromagnet ACrS2 (A
= Cu, Ag, and Au) in magnetic fields up to 9 T, the AgCrS2 sample was found to show a large strain, yielding a large volume change over 700 ppm, which is one of the largest volume changes measured to date for an antiferromagnet. This large strain appeared only at the Neel temperature of 42 K and was not restored to its initial state when the applied magnetic field was decreased to zero; however, it was initialized by cooling the sample to far below the Neel temperature. These results suggest that the coexistence of magnetically ordered and paramagnetic phases at the first-order phase transition plays an important role. AuCrS2 showed a magnetic-field-induced strain with similar features, although it was smaller than that in AgCrS2.
The influence of an external static magnetic field (up to 480 mT)on the structural properties of EuTiO$_3$ (ETO) polycrystalline samples was examined by powder XRD at the Elettra synchrotron facilities in the temperature range 100-300K. While the cub
ic to tetragonal structural phase transition temperature in this magnetic field range remains almost unaffected, significant lattice effects appear at two characteristic temperatures (~200K and 250K), which becomes more pronounced at a critical threshold magnetic field. At ~200K a change in the sign of the magnetostriction is detected attributed to a modification of the local magnetic properties from intrinsic ferromagnetism to intrinsic antiferromagnetism. These data are a clear indication that strong spin-lattice interactions govern also the high temperature phase of ETO and trigger the appearance of magnetic domain formation and novel phase transitions
