Probing the magnetic ground state and magnetoelastic coupling in double perovskite ruthenate: Ca2ScRuO6
This study investigated Ca2ScRuO6 to determine its magnetic ground state. Researchers found a Type-I antiferromagnet with a reduced moment of ~1.1 µB/Ru5+ coexisting with small magnetic clusters, revealing a unique interplay between long-range order and disorder. This system offers insight into magnetic ordering in the presence of antisite defects.
