Muon-spin-relaxation studies of magnetic order and dynamics of the n = 2 Ruddlesden-Popper phases Sr2RMn2O7 (R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho)

Zero field muon spin relaxation (μSR) has been used to study the magnetic properties of n=2 Ruddlesden-Popper phases Sr2RMn2O7, where R = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, and Ho. The results show that the size of the lanthanide ion is crucial in determining the magnetic state and dynamics of the system....
