Abstract
Proton NMR measurements are carried out in both of the antiferromagnetic (AF) and oblique antiferromagnetic (OAF) phases in the random mixture Fe 1- x Co x Cl 2 ·2H 2 O with competing anisotropies. NMR spectra show that in the Fe-rich and Co-rich antiferromagnetic phases all of Fe and Co magnetic moments point parallel to their easy axes, the α-axis for FeCl 2 ·2H 2 O (Fe-type AF) and the b -axis for CoCl 2 ·2H 2 O (Co-type AF), respectively. Some part of Fe spins tilt from b -axis near the boundary concentration region between the Co-type AF and OAF phases. In the OAF phase, both α- and b -components of the moments order independently. Then Fe and Co moments tilt from their easy axes with larger magnitudes of magnetic moments than that in the antiferromagnetic phase. These tilting moments coexist with the moments which are parallel to either α- or b -axis.
