Abstract

The electric field gradient (EFG) at the 181Hf→181Ta site in Ti2Rh C11 b -type compound was measured as a function of temperature using time-differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) technique. The room temperature results show one EFG with the parameters of: ν Q = 336(1) MHz→V zz =5.9 × 1017 V cm − 2, η = 0.1. Very week linear temperature dependence of this EFG was measured with the slope of 3.6 (2) × 10 − 5 K − 1. The results are compared with those for other isostructural compounds.
