M. Trhlik et al., MAGNETIC-BEHAVIOR OF CO IMPURITY IN DILUTE PTFE ALLOYS - A NUCLEAR ORIENTATION STUDY, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 30(2), 1994, pp. 1220-1222
Behaviour or the Co magnetic moments in dilute PtFe alloys was studied
in the temperature range of 5 - 50 mK and the external magnetic field
range of 0 - 8.5 T using low-temperature nuclear orientation. Kondo b
ehaviour of Co, known to exist in pure Pt, was found in the sample of
lowest concentration only (Pt + 0.22 at.% Fe). Large misalignment of t
he Co magnetic moments was seen, especially for alloys having Fe conce
ntration slightly above the percolation limit 0.76 at.%. An anomaly in
the hyperfine field value on the Co nucleus was also found in these a
