19a


19g

Volume 19 of Group III (Crystal and Solid State Physics) deals with the magnetic properties of metals, alloys and metallic compounds. The amount of information available in this field is so substantial that several subvolumes are needed to cover it all. The first subvolumes treat the intrinsic magnetic properties, i. e. those magnetic properties which depend only on the chemical composition and the crystal structure. So far, subvolumes III/19a, III/19b and III/19c have appeared. Data on the properties that depend on the preparation of the samples measured, as for instance, thin films or amorphous alloys and the magnetic alloys used in technical applications, are being compiled in the last subvolumes of III/19. In the first of these, subvolume III/19g, magnetic properties are given for several major types of crystalline and amorphous thin magnetic films that are supported by a substrate and for which a more or less coherent group of data is available. The properties of sputtered metallic amorphous films containing 3d transition elements will be dealt with in the following subvolume.

27J1

Halides I

by K. Katsumata, M. Matsuura, and H P J Wijn

Published 19 January 1994
Volume III/27 covers the magnetic properties of non-metallic
inorganic compounds based on transition elements. It can
therefore be considered as a supplement to volumes III/4
(1970) and III/12 (1978-82) and as a counterpartto volume
III/19, in which the magnetic properties of metals, alloys
andmetallic compounds are compiled. III/27j deals with
halides. In the present subvolume III/27j1 data are compiled
for the halides having the general chemical formula MXn,
where M represents a 3d-element and X a halogen element.
Also graphite compounds intercalated by these transition
metal chlorides have been included.

19b

Since 1970 several volumes of the Landolt-Börnstein New Series have appeared which are devoted to, or at least include, the magnetic properties of some special groups of substances. Volume 19 of Group III (Crystal and Solid State Physics) deals with the magnetic properties of metals, alloys and metallic compounds containing at least one transition element. The amount of information available has become so substantial that several subvolumes are needed to cover it all. The first subvolumes deal with the intrinsic magnetic properties, i.e. those magnetic properties which depend only on the chemical composition and the crystal structure. Data on the properties, that, in addition, depend on the preparation of the samples measured, as for instance, thin films or amorphous alloys and the magnetic alloys used in technical applications, will be compiled in the last subvolumes of the series. The first subvolume, III/19 a, appeared in 1986. It covers the magnetic properties of metals and alloys of the 3d, 4d and 5d transition elements. In the present subvolume, III/19 b, the magnetic properties are treated of the binary metallic alloys and compounds of 3d transition elements with the elements of the groups 1B, 2A, 2B and 3B of the Periodic System.
