Abstract

New multifunction materials in the AgXMn1‒XS (Х = 0.05) system have been synthesized and investigated in the temperature range of 77‒500 K in magnetic fields up to 12 kOe. Near the temperature of the magnetic transition (ТN = 176 K), the anomalous behavior of the temperature dependence of magnetization has been observed and has been attributed to the formation of ferrons. An analysis of the infrared spectroscopy data and I‒V characteristics has revealed the spin-polaron subband splitting. Several conductivity channels have been found from the impedance spectra. The temperature and magnetic field dependences of the carrier relaxation time have been obtained. The magnetoresistance (−21%), magnetoimpedance (−65%), magnetothermopower (−40%), and photoconductivity effects have been detected. The majority carrier type, density, and mobility have been determined from the Hall-effect measurement data. The observed effects have been explained using a ferron model.
