摘要

For the cubic intermetallic compound Nd_3Pd_(20)Ge_6 (space group Fm3m) magnetic and transport properties are known to be highly sensitive to sample quality. We have performed powder neutron diffraction experiments down to 100 mK to study the magnetic structures of an inhomogeneous Nd_3Pd_(20)Ge_6 sample, which is the only known 3-20-6 system with three successive magnetic phase transitions. The onset of magnetic Nd order at the 8c site (simple cubic sublattice) is observed in two phase transitions with a dominant commensurate antiferromagnetic component (k_1 = [1,1,1] below T_(N1) = 1.75 K) and an additional weak incommensurate perturbation (k_(1i) = [#tau#,#tau#,#tau#], #tau#=0.79, below T_(Nli) = 1.40 K). The Nd moments at the 4a site (face-centered cubic sublattice) remain disordered down to T_(N2) =0.58 K and align perpendicular to the propagation vector k_2 = [0,0,1]. The phase transition at T_(Nli) appears because of atomic disorder inside the cubic lattice of the 3-20-6 structure. High-quality Nd_3Pd_(20)Ge_6 samples show only two magnetic phase transitions at T_(Nl) and T_(N2).
