Abstract

The electrical and magnetotransport properties of canted antiferromagnet Dy5Si2Ge2 are discussed. The DC electrical resistivity measurements confirm the magnetic crossover by a strong change of slope. The resistivity drops abruptly below TN as the spin disorder contribution vanishes. The application of magnetic field suppresses the TN by about 6 K thereby emphasizing the nature of the magnetic order to be antiferromagnetic.
