Abstract
In the metallic pyrochlore , the conducting molybdenum sublattice adopts canted, yet nearly collinear, ferromagnetic order with nonzero scalar spin chirality. The chemical potential may be controlled by replacing with , while introducing only minimal additional disorder to the conducting states. Here, we demonstrate the stability of the canted ferromagnetic state, including the tilting angle of molybdenum spins, in () with using magnetic susceptibility measurements. Mo-Mo and Mo-Nd magnetic couplings both change sign above , where the canted ferromagnetic state gives way to a spin-glass metallic region. Contributions to the Curie-Weiss law from two magnetic species are separated systematically.
