Ising versus XY anisotropy in frustrated R${}_2$Ti${}_2$O${}_7$ compounds as seen by polarized neutrons

H. Cao, A. Gukasov, I. Mirebeau +3

We studied the field induced magnetic order in R${}_2$Ti${}_2$O${}_7$ pyrochlore compounds with either uniaxial (R=Ho, Tb) or planar (R=Er, Yb) anisotropy, by polarized neutron diffr…
