A solid-state 171Yb NMR-spectroscopic characterization of selected divalent ytterbium intermetallics

  • Josef Maximilian Gerdes , Lars Schumacher , Michael Ryan Hansen and Rainer Pöttgen

Abstract

The intermetallic ytterbium compounds YbZnSn, YbPdSn2, YbAuIn2 and their calcium-substituted counterparts Yb0.5Ca0.5ZnSn, Yb0.5Ca0.5PdSn2 and Yb0.5Ca0.5AuIn2 were synthesized by reaction of the elements in sealed tantalum tubes in an induction furnace. The samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. Their static, temperature-dependent solid-state 171Yb NMR spectra exhibit strong positive Knight shifts without any significant temperature dependence. The resonance shifts including anisotropy parameters for the ternary compounds have been determined.


Dedicated to Professor Wolfgang Bensch on the occasion of his 70th birthday.
