Abstract
AMORPHOUS materials have no preferred crystal axes, but it might be thought that shape or strain could define an antiferromagnetic axis in a compound containing a large concentration of magnetic ions with negative nearest-neighbour exchange interactions. We have studied such an amorphous compound, and find an ordered state where spins are coupled with their directions statistically distributed within a very fine particle. This spin structure is quite different from normal antiferromagnetism, although there are some similarities in the magnetic properties.
