Abstract:
The modulated crystal structure and modulated magnetic ordering of the multiferroic CaCu(x)Mn(7-x)O(12) is studied by analysing neutron and synchrotron-radiation (SR) powder diffraction data with a model based on the magnetic superspace group R31'(00γ)ts. Both atomic position modulations and magnetic modulations are described with the modulation vector (0, 0, q). The magnetic ordering is a screw-type circular helix where the magnetic moments are perpendicular to the c direction. The temperature dependence of the modulation vector length and the ordered magnetic moments of Mn(3+) and Mn(4+) ions is given between T = 50 K and the Néel temperature T(N) is approximately equal to 90 K. The atomic position modulation length L(p) and the magnetic modulation length L(m) fulfil the relation L(m) = 2L(p) at all temperatures between 50 K and T(N).

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.
