Spectroscopic valence of cerium in cerium-lanthanum-iron compounds
Abstract
In Ce2Fe14B and Ce2Fe17, cerium is mixed valent and nonmagnetic. Any structural or compositional modification of these intermetallics which induces cerium to become trivalent and develop a local 4f moment should result in compounds with enhanced magnetostrictions, magnetocrystalline anisotropies, and net magnetic moments. Due to the dependence of cerium valence on steric volume, one approach for manipulating the valence is to increase the cell …
