Abstract
The magnetic properties of the T-In2-2xCr2xS4 (T: Fe, Ni, Co) single crysta ls with spinel structure were studied. The In substitution leads to magneti c properties characteristic of the following types of magnetic order: spin glass, reentrant spin glass and ferrimagnetic. A higher concentration of ch romium produces the reentrant transition and spin-glass state ordering in N iInCrS4 and CoInCrS4. It is suggested that the magnetic structure of these two compounds is a result of the competition on the exchange interaction be tween the magnetic moments.
