Magnetic compensation phenomenon by Nd doping in spin surplus Sm based ferromagnetic intermetallic SmScGe

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

The magnetization compensation phenomenon is observed for Sm1-xNdxScGe at x = 0.09 at a temperature near 90 K in a small applied magnetic field, which establishes the spin surplus status of magnetic moment of Sm in the host matrix. We also noted that the sample profiles in QD SQUID magnetometer become asymmetric in some situations indicating significant contributions from multiple moments higher than the dipole moment. We have successfully accounted for them using a fitting procedure involving the higher order magnetic moments.
