説明

Powder neutron diffraction analysis was performed on Tm11B4, which undergoes successive transitions at TN1=11.7 K, T*=11 K, and TN2=10 K. An incommensurate structure with two propagation vectors, k2=[1±k′±k″,±k″,0] and k2′=[1±k′±3k″,±k″,0] (k′=0.1226 and k″\\simeq0.012), is suggested for phase II (T*TTN1). Phase III (TN2TT*) is described by one propagation vector, k3=[1±k′,0,0]. The propagation vector for phase IV (TTN2) further changes to a commensurate one characterized by k4=[100]. Four Tm moments in the c-plane order in a (+−+−) type, where + and − mean the directions of the moments parallel and antiparallel to the c-direction, respectively. The diffuse scattering intensity around the (100) magnetic reflection remains above TN2 up to 20 K.
