Abstract

More than a hundred ternary borides, gallides and silicides are known which crystallize with a great variety of structure types which can be derived from the hexagonal CaCu$_{5}$ type (hexagonal, \textit{P6/mmm). }However, till today, none of the ternary silicide is reported being formed using Pd and Eu. We have recently synthesized single crystals and powder sample of the new phase EuPd$_{3}$Si$_{2}$. Single crystal data confirms that EuPd$_{3}$Si$_{2}$ crystallizes in orthorhombic symmetry with space group \textit{Imma }(pseudohexagonal) at room temperature. The lattice parameters are a $=$ 7.1463(3), b $=$ 10.0711(4), c $=$ 5.7469 (2) {\AA}. The energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy measurements on the polycrystalline pellet further confirm the stoichiometry to be EuPd$_{3}$Si$_{2}$. Bulk magnetization and specific heat measurements have been performed on single crystals, indicating ferromagnetic order at a temperature T$_{C}$ of 78 K. A metamagnetic transition is observed near 5 K in both the magnetization and specific heat data, and resistance measurements on single crystal sample also exhibit a signature at T$_{C}$, consistent with magnetic long-range order.
