Magnetic and structural phase transitions of MnBi under high magnetic fields

High-field x-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were carried out for polycrystalline MnBi with an NiAs-type hexagonal structure to investigate its magnetic and structural phase transitions. The lattice parameter a rapidly decreases below the spin r...
