Abstract

The magnetic susceptibility of a single crystal of the magnetic semiconductor ZnMn 2As 2 has been investigated in the paramagnetic region for the first time. It is shown that this compound behaves as a ferrimagnet with two magnetic sublattices. The molecular field constants and effective moment values are determined for the Mn ions in two different crystallographic positions, corresponding to tetrahedral and octahedral coordinations by the As ions, respectively.
