Abstract

A new compound NaMn3(SeO3)2(HSeO3)6 was obtained by a conventional hydrothermal method. This compound crystallizes in a trigonal system with space group R-3, exhibiting a typical kagomé structure, where the kagomé layers are composed of [MnO6] octahedra linked by [SeO3] groups. Magnetic susceptibility measurements confirm that this compound exhibits a ferromagnetic transition at ∼13 K, as further confirmed by the heat capacity data. The magnetic entropy was estimated, indicating that the system may release almost the entire entropy at low temperature.
