Abstract
A single crystal of the magnetic semiconductor Tm 0.5Eu 0.5Se was studied by means of neutron diffraction in the temperature range from 1.8 to 293 K. Long-range magnetic order is detected at temperatures below T c = (18.5±1) K. The measured ferromagnetic moment component of (2.12±0.05) μ B per rare-earth ion at saturation in zero external magnetic field indicates approximately antiparallel alignment of Tm moment and Eu spin (mutual angle 134°). The experimentally determined neutron magnetic form factor confirms the divalent state of both Tm and Eu in Tm 0.5Eu 0.5Se.
