NdTi₃Bi₄ (Neodymium Titanium Bismuthide)
A layered RTi₃Bi₄ kagome magnet combining Ti kagome nets with quasi-one-dimensional Nd chains. The Nd³⁺ 4f moments order with strong magnetic anisotropy, and their coupling to the kagome-derived flat bands, Dirac points, and van Hove singularities yields anisotropic magnetotransport and anomalous Hall responses. This combination of low-dimensional rare-earth magnetism and kagome band structure makes NdTi₃Bi₄ an important platform for studying magnetic kagome metals and correlated topological states.
Sample specifications: Individual crystals measure approximately 2–3 mm, with a purity of up to 99.9999% (6N), and multiple high-quality single-crystal pieces included in each package.
Exfoliation: Difficult — strong interlayer bonding; mechanical exfoliation typically yields thick flakes, and ultrathin flakes are challenging to isolate.
Growth method: Flux growth.
