摘要
We investigate the evolution of magnetic properties as well as the content and distribution of Mn for Mn(Sb_(1-x)Bi_(x))_(2)Te_(4) single crystals grown by large-temperature-gradient chemical vapor transport method.It is found that the ferromagnetic MnSb_(2)Te_(4) changes to antiferromagnetism with Bi doping when x≥0.25.Further analysis implies that the occupations of Mn ions at Sb/Bi site Mn_(Sb/Bi) and Mn site Mn_(Mn) have a strong influence on the magnetic ground states of these systems.With the decrease of Mn_(Mn) increase of Mn_(Sb/Bi),the system will favor the ferromagnetic ground state.In addition,the rapid decrease of T_(C/N) with increasing Bi content when x ≤0.25 and the insensitivity of T_(N) to x when x> 0.25 suggest that the main magnetic interaction may change from the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida type at low Bi doping region to the van-Vleck type in high Bi doped samples.
