Abstract

We report the magnetic structure of Yb0.42Sc0.58FeO3 determined by powder neutron diffraction. The symmetry of the crystal structure is P63cm. The magnetic structure was described by the linear combination of irreducible representations Γ1 and Γ2. Two irreducible representations are necessary to describe the magnetic structures of two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnets such as hexagonal-RMnO3 and hexagonal-RFeO3. The result is important in discussing the exchange parameters and the origin of the multiferroicity. We discuss possible ways to uniquely determine the magnetic structure and the origin of the multiferroicity of these systems.
