Abstract

We present the results of neutron scattering experiments to study the crystal and magnetic structures of the Mott-insulating transition metal oxyselenides Pr\(_2\)O\(_2\)M\(_2\)OSe\(_2\) (M=Mn, Fe). The structural role of the non-Kramers Pr3+ ion was investigated, and analysis of Pr3+ crystal field excitations was performed. Long-range order of Pr3+ moments in Pr\(_2\)O\(_2\)Fe\(_2\)OSe\(_2\) can be induced by an applied magnetic field.
