A Study of the Magnetic Properties of Yb4LiGe4: Unusual Magnetism

Thesis advisor: Michael Graf === The R5T4 compounds (R = rare earth, T = Ge or Si) are interesting because the magnetic properties are very sensitively dependent on slight changes in the crystalline structure. Yb5Ge4 is one such compound, with (presumed) antiferromagnetic order occurring at TN = 1.7...
