Popis: Publisher Summary This chapter investigates the effects of magnetic field and temperature on structure and magnetic properties of BiMn compound. To do so, Bi-wt.6%Mn alloys are fabricated in different fabrication magnetic field H f .. The microstructure shows that MnBi (low temperature phase, LTP) in Bi-wt.6%Mn alloys are all aligned, with the c-axis of the MnBi (LTP) crystal along the fabrication magnetic field H f . H f explicitly improves the magnetic anisotropy. Magnetic measurements indicate that the MnBi (LTP) saturation magnetization Ms and its coercive field H c change with the temperature. Most of all, the temperature of spin-reorientation increases with the increasing H f but decreased with the increase of the measuring magnetic field H m . H f explicitly improves the magnetic anisotropy. The magnetic moment of MnBi gradually deviates from the c-axis at approximately 90K. It is interesting that, under a dc field applied H m parallel to c-axis, the temperature of SRT decreases with the increase of magnetic field, and increases with the increasing H f .
