Physical properties of RIr3 (R = Gd, Tb, Ho) compounds with coexisting polymorphic phases

Binita Mondal, Shovan Dan, Sudipta Mondal +3

The binary compounds GdIr3, TbIr3 and HoIr3 are synthesized successfully and found to form in macroscopic co-existence of two polymorphic phases: C15b and AuCu3-type. The dc magnet…
