Magnetic properties of 3d-metal Prussian Blue Analogs

ORAL

Abstract

Prussian Blue Analogs consists of MC$_{6}$ and AN$_{6}$ octahedra connected by cyanide ligands (M, A$=$ metals). They typically crystallize in cubic structures. We have studied temperature and field dependence of the magnetization and the susceptibility of 3d-metal Prussian Blue Analogs, namely the hexacyanocobaltates, -ferrates and -chromates. All compounds exhibit modified Curie --Weiss behavior in the paramagnetic region. The observed effective moments of those compounds were compared with the ones of the respective free-ion values. Furthermore, we find evidence that a few of the compounds exhibit a transition to long-range magnetic order at low temperatures.
