Title: The new ternary pnictides Er{sub 12}Ni{sub 30}P{sub 21} and Er{sub 13}Ni{sub 25}As{sub 19}: Crystal structures and magnetic properties

Abstract

The new ternary pnictides Er{sub 12}Ni{sub 30}P{sub 21} and Er{sub 13}Ni{sub 25}As{sub 19} have been synthesized from the elements. They crystallize with hexagonal structures determined from single-crystal X-ray data for Er{sub 12}Ni{sub 30}P{sub 21} (space group P6{sub 3}/m, a=1.63900(3) nm, c=0.37573(1) nm, Z=1, R{sub F}=0.062 for 1574 F-values and 74 variable parameters), and for Er{sub 13}Ni{sub 25}As{sub 19} (Tm{sub 13}Ni{sub 25}As{sub 19}-type structure, space group P6-bar , a=1.6208(1) nm, c=0.38847(2) nm, Z=1, R{sub F}=0.026 for 1549 F-values and 116 variable parameters). These compounds belong to a large family of hexagonal structures with a metal-metalloid ratio of 2:1. HRTEM investigations were conducted to probe for local ordering of the disordered structure at the nanoscale. The magnetic properties of the phosphide Er{sub 12}Ni{sub 30}P{sub 21} have been studied in the temperature of range 2<T<300 K and with applied fields up to 5 T. The magnetic susceptibility follows the Curie-Weiss law from 4 to 300 K. The measured value of {mu}{sub eff}=9.59 {mu}{sub B} corresponds to the theoretical value of Er{sup 3+}. - Graphical abstract: The new ternary pnictides Er{sub 12}Ni{sub 30}P{sub 21} and Er{sub 13}Ni{sub 25}As{sub 19} have been synthesized from the elements.
