Abstract
The role of crystal chemistry in YbCu5âxAux crystallizing in the FCC AuBe5-type structure is highlighted through the study of the 0.7 ⩾ x ⩾ 0.4 region. Magnetic frustration, due to the magnetic Yb-ions forming a network of edge-sharing tetrahedra, seems to play an important role in the evolution of the ground state of the system. Significant differences are found among the YbCu5âxAux compounds compared to the cubic isotypic systems YbCu5âxAgx and YbCu5.
