The AFe4X2 (A=Y, Lu, Zr; X=Ge, Si) family of transition metal tetrels has shown to be a promising candidate for studying the change of the electronic ground state under chemical substitution [1]. Within the ZrFe4Si2-type structure (P42/mnm), the iron atoms are arranged in chains of edge-linked tetrahedra [2]. Their structure is prone for reduced dimensionality or frustration and is thus expected to lead to emergent phenomena near a quantum critical point. Since neutron scattering data on YFe4Ge2 show a simultaneous structural and magnetic transition [3], electronic and structural properties seem intimately connected within the whole AFe4X2 family. On the poster, we discuss the electronic and structural properties, extracted from our µSR, Mössbauer, X-Ray and thermodynamic data in the context of a structural driven magnetic phase transition.
