Neutron Diffraction Studies of Polycrystalline CeCr1-xTixGe3 (x = 0, 0.5, 1.0)

DOI

Observation of both ferromagnetic ordering and Kondo/heavy fermion behavior in a system is not so common. Recently we have discovered the Kondo effect/heavy fermion behavior in the trivalent Ce compound CeCrGe3 where itinerant Cr moments order ferromagnetically at Tc=70 K. A small anomaly near 3 K in the heat capacity data is likely due to ordering of localized Ce moments. As there are two magnetic sublattices in the system, investigation of the magnetic structure will be very exciting. Itinerant Cr moments in this system have a strong coupling with localized Ce moments which is quite evident from the results on CeCr1-xTixGe3. In this connection determination of magnetic structure of CeCr1-xTixGe3 (x=0,0.5, 1.0) will be very interesting. We, propose to carry out neutron diffraction studies on these compounds.
