Crystal Growth, Structure, Magnetic, and Transport Properties of TbRhIn5
Abstract
Single crystals of TbRhIn5 were synthesized using the flux growth method. TbRhIn5 adopts the HoCoGa5 structure type and crystallizes in the space group P4/mmm, Z = 1. Lattice parameters are a = 4.6000(6) A, c = 7.4370(11) A, and V = 157.29(6) A3. Transport measurements show that TbRhIn5 is metallic (drho/dT > 0). A sharp antiferromagnetic transition is observed at T(N) = 48 K in the susceptibility data for TbRhIn5, which is highly anisotropic when the field is oriented along the c axis and a-b plane of the crystal and has an average effective moment of 9.72 muB/Tb3+.
