Abstract
X-ray diffraction measurement at 298 K of CdMoO4:Dy3+ showed that the molybdenum ions are tetrahedral coordinated and Cd/Dy – dodecahedral coordinated. The Dy3+ ions are randomly distributed in the unit cell, substituting the Cd2+ ones. The temperature dependence of ac and dc magnetic susceptibility showed a lack of the Curie-Weiss behaviour and a weak response to the magnetic field. The magnetization isotherms, M(H), showed a paramagnetic-diamagnetic transition at 17 K for 〈100〉 direction and at 35 K for 〈001〉 one in the magnetic field of 70 kOe. As the temperature increased this transition was moving toward smaller magnetic fields.
