Magnetostriction Reveals Orthorhombic Distortion in Tetrahedral Gd-compounds

Diana Betancourth, Victor F. Correa, Jorge I. Facio +5

We report detailed thermal expansion and magnetostriction experiments on GdCoIn${}_5$ and GdRhIn${}_5$ single crystal samples that show a sudden change in the dilation at a field B$^\a…
