Magnetism on the stretched diamond lattice in lanthanide orthotantalates
The magnetic lanthanide (Ln3+) ions in the fergusonite and scheelite crystal structures form a distorted or stretched diamond lattice which is predicted to host exotic magnetic ground states. In this study, polycrystalline samples of the fergusonite orthotantalates M−LnTaO4 (Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb,...
