摘要
MnBi compound is fabricated under a magnetic field of 1 T, and the c-axis of hexagonal MnBi crystal is aligned parallel to the magnetic field direction. The saturation magnetization Ms decreases with the increase of temperature. At temperatures below 20OK, the coercive field Hc is about 150Oe, while the coercive field Hc increases with temperature above 200K. From 200K to 300K, the remnant magnetization Mr and the Mr/Ms increase with the temperature. Below 200K, Mr and Mr/M8 reach roughly a constant value. However, there is an abnormal increase at 100 K in He, Mr and Mr/Ms, which comes from a spin-reorientation in MnBi. Magnetization results show the spin-reorientation for MnBi at about 91 K due to the variations of the anisotropy constants.
