Abstract
The de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect in the antiferromagnetic compound FeGe2 is studied experimentally. A sharp suppression of the amplitude of the first harmonic of the dHvA oscillations is observed for a number of orbits on the Fermi surface of FeGe2. The change in the conditions for suppression of the amplitude (spin zeroes) when FeGe2 is doped with cobalt is determined. A method for analyzing the experimental data is proposed in which the g-factors of the conduction electrons are computed on the basis of calculations of the spin-polarized electron structure of the band antiferromagnet taking spin-orbital interactions into account. The exchange enhancement factor for spin paramagnetism in FeGe2 is also calculated.
