High resolution and high intensity neutron powder diffraction are used to determine the temperature dependence of the crystallographic and magnetic structure of the orthoferrite CeFeO. The high temperature-type magnetic coupling of the Fe-sublattice described by the Γ() irreducible representation changes at the spin reorientation temperature= 228 K to a-type coupling of Γ(). The spin reorientation is of first order and sees a hysteresis of about 2.5 K at. Below 35 K faint magnetic peaks reflectingtype magnetic coupling appear and are argued to be related to the Ce-sublattice. Magnetic moments at 2 K amount to= 4.15 and= 0.11 . CeFeOis only the secondFeOcompound after DyFeOshowing this ground state magnetic structure of the Fe-sublattice. The orthorhombic structureis kept over the whole temperature range.
利用高分辨率和高强度中子粉末衍射来确定正铁酸盐CeFeO的晶体结构和磁结构的温度依赖性。由Γ()不可约表示描述的Fe亚晶格的高温型磁耦合在自旋重取向温度 = 228 K时转变为Γ()的a型耦合。自旋重取向是一级的，在该温度下出现约2.5 K的磁滞。在35 K以下，出现反映型磁耦合的微弱磁峰，据认为这与Ce亚晶格有关。2 K时的磁矩分别为 = 4.15 和 = 0.11 。CeFeO是继DyFeO之后第二个具有这种Fe亚晶格基态磁结构的FeO化合物。正交结构在整个温度范围内保持不变。
