The solid state structures of these products were established by Single Crystal X-ray diffraction technique. Magnetism studies reveal Dy4 exhibits slow magnetic relaxation behavior.10 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Elsevier Ltd, 2018http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/esTerres raresImantsMagnetismeRare earthsMagnetsMagnetisminfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6828502020-03-31info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
