Anisotropy in RFe2 Intermetallics: An NMR Study

Anisotropy in RFe2 Intermetallics: An NMR Study

The anisotropy of the Ho3+, Tb3+ and Tm3+ rare-earth ions in RFe2 compounds is investigated using the field dependence of the NMR spectra of 169Tm, 159Tb and 165Ho in polycrystalline TmFe2, TbFe2, HoFe2 and related pseudo-binary compounds. The very large hyperfine interaction in these ions dominates...
