Mechanism for transitions between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic orders in $d$-electron metallic magnets

Abstract

We propose mechanism for pressure-induced transitions between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases that relies on a competition between characteristic energy scales ubiquitous among dd-electron metallic magnetic compounds. Principles behind the mechanism are demonstrated on the example of the minimal two-orbital pp-dd lattice model. We suggest that LaCrGe3_3, where pressure-induced ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic phase transition has been recently observed, is a promising candidate to realize discussed mechanism.
