Abstract
The crystal and magnetic structures of the tetragonal compounds YCo11Ti and YCo10Mo2 (space group I4/mmm) have been investigated by time-of-flight neutron diffraction at 293 K. A strong site preference for both Ti and Mo atoms is observed, with these atoms almost exclusively occupying 8i sites. The refined Co moments at 8i, 8j and 8f sites are in agreement with magnetization measurements. The Co sublattice displays a uniaxial anisotropy for both compounds at room temperature. This is confirmed by bulk magnetization measurements using the SPD (singular point detection) technique. The compound YCo11Ti has been found to display a spin reorientation transition from axis to plane at approximately 650 K.
