The impact of chemical doping on the magnetic state of the Sr2YRuO6 double perovskite

Neutron diffraction measurements of the ordered double perovskite Sr2YRuO6reveal a with a change from a 2D ordered state to the 3D type 1 AFM state upon cooling. The impact of chemical doping Sr2−xAxYRuO6 (A=Ca, Ba) on the low temperature magnetic properties have also been investigated and these highlight the unique low temperature behavior of Sr2YRuO6 with doping destabilizing the intermediate 2D ordered state.160
