· J. Appl. Phys.; (United States)
The results of low-temperature Moessbauer measurements on the dihydrides and dideuterides of Er and Ho are presented in the range 1.5--10 K. The magnetic ordering temperatures observed from the onset of magnetic hyperfine splitting are in agreement with the specific heat measurements. The saturation hyperfine magnetic field at /sup 166/Er in ErH/sub 2/ and ErD/sub 2/ show the ground crystalline-field level to be GAMMA/sub 6/, while it is difficult to decide between GAMMA/sub 6/ or GAMMA/sub 7/ as the ground state for the Er atom in HoH/sub 2/ and HoD/sub 2/. The measurements indicate the presence of short-range magnetic order in all the cases. Furthermore, the temperature range over which the short-range magnetic order is observed is intimately related to the stoichiometry of the hydrides or the deutrides.
