Abstract

Single phased ternary vanadium sulfides with various 3 d transition metal substitutes were prepared by thermal treatment and characterized by X-ray diffraction. Magnetic susceptibility measurements on the homogeneous powders reveal that itinerant and localized magnetism in all samples co-exists, due to the inequivalent vanadium sites in the structure. While the substitution of V with Ti to Mn has only a small effect on the magnetic properties, the substitution with Fe brings out a localized magnetic moment. The behaviour of the series will be discussed.
