Effects of Cr Substitution on Negative Thermal Expansion and Magnetic Properties of Antiperovskite Ga1−xCrxN0.83Mn3 Compounds

Negative thermal expansion (NTE) and magnetic properties were investigated for antiperovskite Ga1−xCrxN0.83Mn3 compounds. As x increases, the temperature span (ΔT) of NTE related with Γ5g antiferromagnetic (AFM) order is expanded and shifted to lower temperatures. At x = 0.1, NTE happens between 256...
