The evolution of magnetic frustration in HoInAg2−xAux — •Johanna Oefele1, Oliver Stockert2, Philipp Gegenwart1, and Veronika Fritsch11EP6, Electronic Correlations and Magnetism, Augsburg University, Germany — 2Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, Dresden, Germany

While the intermetallic compounds HoInAg2 and HoInAu2 share the same face-centered cubic crystal structure and are isoelectronic, the magnetic properties significantly deviate from each other. HoInAg2 is strongly frustrated as evidenced by its thermodynamic properties and a large frustration parameter. In contrast the HoInAu2 system shows no signs of magnetic frustration. In order to explore the transition from the frustrated to the non-frustrated system we synthesised the substitution series HoInAg2−xAux.

In this talk I will present the crystal growth and the susceptibility, specific heat and the resistivity measurements on our polycrystalline samples. The effective paramagnetic moments extracted from the magnetic susceptibility coincide with the value expected for free Ho3+. From the specific heat the entropy was calculated confirming the presence of magnetic frustration in HoInAg2. With increasing substitution of Ag with Au the Néel temperature is monotonically increasing, while the frustration vanishes.
