Abstract

The change in the antiferromagnetic properties of chromium caused by alloying with a small amount of beryllium (less than 6 at.%) was studied br neutron diffraction for powder and single crystal specimens and also by electrical resistivity measurements at temperatures above 80 K. The results indicate that addition of Be causes a decrease of the Néel temperature, spin flip temperature, magnetic moment and the wave vector of the spin density wave. This behavior is quite different from that observed in the dilute Cr alloys containing other species of non-transition elements.
