摘要

We have grown a single crystal of NdFe2Si2, characterized it by X-ray diffraction and microprobe analysis, and studied the basic thermodynamic properties by means of specific-heat and magnetization (magnetic susceptibility) measurements with respect to temperature and magnetic field. In the light of the obtained results, we consider NdFe2S2 as an antiferromagnet below T-N (13.7 K), which undergoes an additional first-order magnetic phase transition at 13.1 K. The compound exhibits considerable magnetocrystalline anisotropy with easy magnetization direction along the c-axis. When a magnetic field is applied along this direction at 2 K, a sharp metamagnetic transition (NIT) is observed at 1 T, which leads to a state characterized by a magnetic moment of 3mu(B)/f.u. being somewhat lower than the Nd3+ freeion value of ordered moment (3.2mu(B)). This, together with pronounced anisotropic deviations of the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility from the expected Curie Weiss behavior, indicates influence of the crystalline electric field on the Nd orbitals. This conclusion is corroborated by the observed Schottky contribution to the specific heat, from which an energy-level scheme for the Nd3+ ion in NdFe2Si2 has been derived.
