Abstract

The synthesis, structure, and basic magnetic properties of Na₂Co₂TeO₆ and Na₃Co₂SbO₆ are reported. The crystal structures were determined by neutron powder diffraction. Na₂Co₂TeO₆ has a two-layer hexagonal structure (space group P6₃22) while Na₃Co₂SbO₆ has a single-layer monoclinic structure (space group C2/m). The Co, Te, and Sb ions are in octahedral coordination, and the edge sharing octahedra form planes interleaved by sodium ions. Both compounds have full ordering of the Co²⁺ and Te⁶⁺/Sb⁵⁺ ions in the ab plane such that the Co²⁺ ions form a honeycomb array. The stacking of the honeycomb arrays differ in the two compounds. Both Na₂Co₂TeO₆ and Na₃Co₂SbO₆ display magnetic ordering at low temperatures, with what appears to be a spin-flop transition found in Na₃Co₂SbO₆.
