The magnetic structure of L10 ordered MnPt at room temperature determined using polarized neutron diffraction

Neutron scattering studies have been carried out on single crystal films of [001] orientated L10 ordered MnPt grown epitaxially on MgO (001) using DC magnetron sputtering. Polarized neutron diffraction studies at room temperature show that the moments in ordered MnPt are aligned perpendicular to the...

Summary:Neutron scattering studies have been carried out on single crystal films of [001] orientated L10 ordered MnPt grown epitaxially on MgO (001) using DC magnetron sputtering. Polarized neutron diffraction studies at room temperature show that the moments in ordered MnPt are aligned perpendicular to the [001] axis with a tilt of 45° to the [100] axis and not parallel to [100] as inferred from previous powder neutron diffraction measurements.
