【 摘 要 】

We report results of magnetic and transport measurements on single crystals of a new rare earth series RIr2Ga (R=La, Pr, Nd, Sm, and Gd through Tm). These compounds appear to crystallize in the triple-hexagonal Na,As structure with space group P6(3)cm. Magnetic ordering temperatures show deviation from De Gennes scaling. These compounds are an interesting example of a quasi-2D structure in which there are anisotropic magnetic interactions. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
