Correlations between stacked structures and weak itinerant magnetic properties of La${}_{2-x}$ Y${}_x$ Ni${}_7$ compounds

Valérie Paul-Boncour, Jean-Claude Crivello, Nicolas Madern +5

Hexagonal La${}_2$Ni${}_7$ and rhombohedral Y${}_2$Ni${}_7$ are weak itinerant antiferromagnet (wAFM) and ferromagnet (wFM), respectively. The crystal structure and magnetic properties of…
