C14 Nb(Fe89.4Al10.6)2 Laves phase intermetallic compound was investigated by DC magnetization (M) measurements performed in the temperature (T) interval of 20 to 175 K,under an applied magnetic field (H) ranging between 50 and 1250 Oe. Magnetization curves were recorded in the field-cooled (FC) and in the zero-field-cooled (ZFC) modes. They clearly showed an irreversible character that vanished at H=1250 Oe. Both magnetization curves exhibited well-defined peaks around T_N =72.3 K whose positions were H-independent, so they were identified as the compounds Neel temperature. The existence of irreversibility which decreases with H testify to a re-entrant character of magnetism in the studied compound. An increase of both MFC and MZFC observed below TN likely indicates a mixed i.e. ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic ground magnetic state of the studied system.

A C14 Nb0.975Fe2.025 Laves phase compound was investigated aimed at determining the H-T magnetic phase diagram. Magnetization, M, and AC magnetic susceptibility measurements were performed. Concerning the former field-cooled and zero-field-cooled M-c
urves were recorded in the temperature range of 2-200K and in applied magnetic field, H, up to 1000 Oe, isothermal M(H) curves at 2 K, 5 K, 50 K, 80 K and 110 K as well as hysteresis loops at several temperatures over the field range of -10 to +10kOe. Regarding the AC susceptibility, both real and imaginary components were registered as a function of increasing temperature in the interval of 2 K - 150 K at the frequencies of the oscillating field, f, from 3 Hz up to 999 Hz. An influence of the external DC magnetic field, H, on the temperature dependence of the AC susceptibility was investigated, too. The measurements clearly demonstrated that the magnetism of the studied sample is weak, itinerant and has a reentrant character. Based on the obtained results a magnetic phase diagram has been constructed in the H-T coordinates.
Single crystals of the single Kagome layer compound FeSn are investigated using x-ray and neutron scattering, magnetic susceptibility and magnetization, heat capacity, resistivity, Hall, Seebeck, thermal expansion, thermal conductivity measurements a
nd density functional theory (DFT). FeSn is a planar antiferromagnet below TN = 365 K and exhibits ferromagnetic magnetic order within each Kagome layer. The in-plane magnetic susceptibility is sensitive to synthesis conditions. Resistivity, Hall and Seebeck results indicate multiple bands near the Fermi energy. The resistivity of FeSn is about 3 times lower for current along the stacking direction than in the plane, suggesting that transport and the bulk electronic structure of FeSn is not quasi 2D. FeSn is an excellent metal with Rho(300K)/Rho(2K) values about 100 in both directions. While the ordered state is antiferromagnetic, high temperature susceptibility measurements indicate a ferromagnetic Curie-Weiss temperature of 173 K, reflecting the strong in-plane ferromagnetic interactions. DFT calculations show a 3D electronic structure with the Dirac nodal lines along the K-H directions in the magnetic Brillouin zone about 0.3 eV below the Fermi energy, with the Dirac dispersions at the K points gapped by spin-orbit coupling except at the H point. The magnetism, however, is highly 2D with Jin-plane/Jout-of-plane = 10. The predicted spin-wave spectrum is presented.
We report the synthesis, magnetic susceptibility and crystal structure analysis for NbB2+x (x = 0.0 to 1.0) samples. The study facilitates in finding a correlation among the lattice parameters, chemical composition and the superconducting transition
temperature Tc. Rietveld analysis is done on the X- ray diffraction patterns of all synthesized samples to determine the lattice parameters. The a parameter decreases slightly and has a random variation with increasing x, while c parameter increases from 3.26 for pure NbB2 to 3.32 for x=0.4 i.e. NbB2.4. With higher Boron content (x>0.4) the c parameter decreases slightly. The stretching of lattice in c direction induces superconductivity in the non- stoichiometric niobium boride. Pure NbB2 is non-superconductor while the other NbB2+x (x>0.0) samples show diamagnetic signal in the temperature range 8.9-11K. Magnetization measurements (M-H) at a fixed temperature of 5K are also carried out in both increasing and decreasing directions of field. The estimated lower and upper critical fields (Hc1 & Hc2) as viewed from M-H plots are around 590 and 2000Oe respectively for NbB2.6 samples. In our case, superconductivity is achieved in NbB2 by varying the Nb/B ratios, rather than changing the processing conditions as reported by others.
We systematically investigate the magnetic properties and local structure of Ba2YIrO6 to demonstrate that Y and Ir lattice defects in the form of antiphase boundary or clusters of antisite disorder affect the magnetism observed in this $d^4$ compound
. We compare the magnetic properties and atomic imaging of (1) a slow cooled crystal, (2) a crystal quenched from 900degree C after growth, and (3) a crystal grown using a faster cooling rate than the slow cooled one. Atomic imaging by scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) shows that quenching from 900oC introduces antiphase boundary to the crystals, and a faster cooling rate during crystal growth leads to clusters of Y and Ir antisite disorder. STEM study suggests the antiphase boundary region is Ir-rich with a composition of Ba2YIrO6. The magnetic measurements show that Ba2YIrO6 crystals with clusters of antisite defects have a larger effective moment and a larger saturation moment than the slow-cooled crystals. Quenched crystals with Ir-rich antiphase boundary shows a slightly suppressed saturation moment than the slow cooled crystals, and this seems to suggest that antiphase boundary is detrimental to the moment formation. Our DFT calculations suggest magnetic condensation is unlikely as the energy to be gained from superexchange is small compared to the spin-orbit gap. However, once Y is replaced by Ir in the antisite disordered region, the picture of local non-magnetic singlets breaks down and magnetism can be induced. This is because of (a) enhanced interactions due to increased overlap of orbitals between sites, and, (b) increased number of orbitals mediating the interactions. Our work highlights the importance of lattice defects in understanding the experimentally observed magnetism in Ba2YIrO6 and other J=0 systems.
We report the effect of Nb doping on the upper critical field of the cubic Laves-phase superconductor HfV$_{2}$ studied in a series of HfV$_{2-x}$Nb$_{x}$ samples with 0 $leq$ $x$ $leq$ 0.3 under pulsed fields up to 30 T. The undoped HfV$_{2}$ underg
oes a martensitic structural transition around 110 K, and becomes superconducting below $T_{rm c}$ = 9.4 K. Upon Nb doping, while the structural transition is suppressed for $x$ $geq$ 0.1, a maximum in $T_{rm c}$ of 10.1 K and zero-temperature upper critical field $B_{rm c2}$(0) of 22.4 T is found at $x$ = 0.2, which is ascribed to an increase of the density of states at the Fermi level. For all samples, the temperature dependence of $B_{rm c2}$ can be well described by the Werthamer-Helfand-Hohenberg (WHH) theory that takes into account both the spin paramagnetic effect and spin orbit scattering. In addition, a comparison is made between the $B_{rm c2}$ behavior of HfV$_{2-x}$Nb$_{x}$ and those of Nb-Ti and Nb$_{3}$Sn.
