Abstract

The equiatomic rare earth-magnesium-indium compounds REMgIn (RE = Y, La-Nd, Sm, Gd- Tm, Lu) were prepared from the elements in sealed tantalum tubes inside a water-cooled sample chamber of an induction furnace. All compounds were characterized through their X-ray powder patterns. They crystallize with the hexagonal ZrNiAl type structure, space group P6̄̄2m, with three formula units per cell. The structure of SmMgIn was refined from X-ray single crystal diffractometer data: a = 761.3(2), c = 470.3(1) pm, wR2 = 0.0429, 380 F2 values and 14 variable parameters. The DyMgIn, HoMgIn, and TmMgIn structures have been analyzed using the Rietveld technique. The REMgIn structures contain two cystallographically independent indium sites, both with tri-capped trigonal prismatic coordination: In1Sm6Mg3 and In2Mg6Sm3. Together the magnesium and indium atoms form a three-dimensional [MgIn] network with Mg-Mg distances of 320 and Mg-In distances in the range 294 - 299 pm. Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility data show Curie-Weiss behavior for DyMgIn, HoMgIn, and TmMgIn with experimental magnetic moments of 11.0(1) μB/Dy atom, 10.9(1) μB/Ho atom, and 7.5(1) μB/Tm atom. The three compounds order antiferromagnetically at TN = 22(2) K (DyMgIn), 12(1) K (HoMgIn), and 3(1) K (TmMgIn).
