In cerium-based intermetallic compounds the interplay of localized 4f electrons with itinerant d electrons may result in a wide range of magnetic and electronic ordering phenomena. Here, we report a comprehensive neutron diffraction study on single crystals of the non-centrosymmetric compounds CePdAl₃, crystallizing in the orthorhombic space group Cmc2₁, and CePtAl₃, crystallizing in the tetragonal space group I4/mmm. In CePdAl₃, a collinear antiferromagnetic structure is observed below T_N = 5.3 K with an ordered moment of 1.64 µ_B/Ce pointing along the a direction. In CePtAl₃, an amplitude-modulated cycloidal structure with an ordering vector (2/300) emerges below T_N = 3.2 K. A symmetry analysis and its connection to the magnetic structures of measured compounds will be presented.
