Magnetic Behaviour in Rare Earth Intermetallic Indides and Gallides

By Devang Joshi

This book deals with the phenomena of magnetism exhibited by intermetallic compounds. We selected the rare earth based intermetallic compounds considering the interesting magnetic behavior of the 4f orbital. A variety of interesting properties are exhibited in these compounds simply by changing the rare earth element. The interesting behavior includes: Pauli-paramagnetism, heavy fermion behavior, crystal field effects, hard and soft ferromagnets, various anisotropic effects, etc. Apart from this, exploring the 4f orbital has become a trend for the fundamental studies as well as practical applications. The presence of a 3d orbital also motivates the interest because of the interplay between them. We present our studies on 4f orbital, 3d orbital and their interplay in this book.
