Crystal and magnetic structure of antiferromagnetic Mn 2 PtPd.
We have investigated the crystal and magnetic structure of Mn2 PtPd alloy using powder x-ray and neutron diffraction experiments. This compound is believed to belong to the Heusler family having crystal symmetry I4/mmm (TiAl3 -type). However, in this work we found that the Pd and Pt atoms are disordered and thus Mn2 PtPd crystallizes in the L10 structure having P4/mmm symmetry (CuAu-I type) like MnPt and MnPd binary alloys. The lattice constants are a = 2.86 Å and c = 3.62 Å at room temperature. Mn2 PtPd has a collinear antiferromagnetic spin structure below the Néel temperature T N = 866 K, where Mn moments of ~4 µ B lie in the ab-plane. We observed a strong change in the lattice parameters near T N . The sample exhibits metallic behaviour, where electrical resistivity and carrier concentration are of the order of 10-5 Ω cm and 1021 cm-3 , respectively.
