Magnetic and Electrical Characteristics of Nd³⁺ and Mn²⁺-Co-doped Calcium Molybdato-Tungstates Single Crystals.

ABSTRACT: Single crystals of Ca_1-3x-yMn_y□_xNd_2x(MoO₄)_1-3x(WO₄)_3x molybdato-tungstates (□ denotes vacant sites) with a scheelite-type structure have been successfully grown by the Czochralski technique in an inert atmosphere. This paper presents the results of structural, optical, magnetic, and electrical properties, as well as the broadband dielectric spectroscopy measurements of single crystals with different Nd³⁺ ion concentrations, i.e., when x = 0.0050 or x = 0.0098, and with constant content of Mn²⁺ ions, i.e., when y = 0.0050. Our magnetic studies have shown that substitution of diamagnetic Ca²⁺
