β¦ Synopsis
Variable-temperature powder neutron di4raction data demonstrate that FeV 2 S 4 undergoes a transition to a long-range magnetically ordered state at 135(7) K, in agreement with magnetic susceptibility data. High-resolution neutron di4raction data collected at 1.9 K reveal that magnetic ordering results in a doubling of the crystallographic unit-cell dimensions (I2/m a β«Ψβ¬ 5.8302(2), b β«Ψβ¬ 3.2761(1), c β«Ψβ¬ 11.2398(4) A s , β«Ψβ¬ 92.046(2)3) in the a and c directions and that the magnetic structure is described by a propagation vector of ( 1 2 , 0, 1 2 ). Cations in an ordered defect layer, 76% of which are Fe(II), possess an average ordered moment of 1.86(5) B , which is directed at an angle of 753 to the layer. Cation+cation interactions reduce the average moment of cations in the MS 2 unit to 0.17(4) B . The complex magnetic structure involves essentially collinear antiferromagnetic ordering between nearest-neighbor cations.
