Abstract
The BaNiO3-type structure and the ferromagnetic order (TC = 78 K) of the Cr sublattice in LaCrGe3 have been confirmed by neutron powder diffraction measurements. At 20 K, the magnetic structure is collinear along the c axis with a Cr magnetic moment of 1.24(4) μB. Below 3 K, LaCrGe3 has a spin-canted ferromagnetic structure with a canting angle θ of 32(6) and a Cr magnetic moment of 1.31(4) μB at 1.7 K. © 2021 by Trans Tech Publications Ltd.
