The lattice parameters a(T), b(T), c(T), and β(T) as a function of temperature (T) and the pressure dependence of the magnetic transition temperature Ttrfor Cr3X4(X Se and Te) with the NiAs-like crystal structure (space group I2/m) have been measured. For Cr3X4(X Se and Te), anisotropic thermal expansion behavior of the lattice parameters is observed below Ttr. In particular, a(T) and β(T) for Cr3Se4exhibit an abrupt contraction on heating at about 100 K. The sign of the pressure derivative of Ttrfor Cr3X4(X Se and Te) is consistent with volumetric expansion behavior. The obtained results are discussed qualitatively from the viewpoint of the band picture.
