Magnetic and structural properties of Zn doped MnV2O4

Abstract

The magnetization, Neutron diffraction and X-ray diffraction of Zn doped MnV2O4 as a function of temperature have been measured. It has been observed, with increase of Zn the non-linear orientation of Mn spins with the V spins will decrease which effectively decrease the structural transition temperature more rapidly than Curie Temperature. © 2014 AIP Publishing LLC.
