Abstract

We carried out neutron powder diffraction (NPD) experiments on the layered perovskite cobaltite PrBaCo2O5.5+x (x = 0.24) at Super High Resolution Neutron Powder Diffractometer (SuperHRPD) with a newly installed magnet. At low temperatures, the antiferromagnetic (AFM) reflections of the NPD profile are suppressed whilst ferromagnetic (FM) reflections are enhanced under 14 T magnetic field. The magnetic-field-induced AFM-FM transition reveals the ground-state energy of FM is close to that of AFM.
