Abstract

Susceptibility-temperature relation for the compound FeTe was measured over a range of temperatures between liquid air and 1150°C. Evidence was found of an antiferromagnetic character in the region of temperatures below 500°C, the molal magnetic susceptibility having been expressed by χ=0.92/( T +220). The effective number of Bohr magnetons was estimated to be 2.72. The susceptibility dependence on temperature in the region beyond 600°C showed evidences of the feeble constant paramagnetism and an anomaly at 815°C, which is the melting point of this compound. A tentative interpretation of these magnetic properties is given in terms of an electronic configuration of Fe.
