Interplay of magnetic ordering and CEF anisotropy in the hexagonal compounds RPtIn, R = Y, Gd - Lu

E. Morosan, S. L. Bud'ko, P. C. Canfield

Single crystals of RPtIn, $R=$ Y, Gd - Lu were grown out of In-rich ternary solution. Powder X-ray diffraction data on all of these compounds were consistent with the hexagonal Zr…
