Negative Magnetization in NdFexGa1-xO3 Studied by XMCD

Article Preview

Abstract:

Negative Magnetization (NM) in NdFe0.8Ga0.2O3 is reported, both by magnetization, ac-susceptibility and x-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism measurements. The mechanism of NM in NdFe0.8Ga0.2O3 is the blocking of the weak-ferromagnetic domain walls and the polarization of the paramagnetic Nd sublattice by that of Fe at low temperatures.
