Abstract
Elastic neutron scattering experiments were performed on the quasi-one-dimensional magnet Ca2Y2Cu5O10, which consists of the ferromagnetic edge-sharing CuO2 chains. This compound shows an antiferromagnetic long-range ordering below TN = 29.5 K. It is found that the magnetic moments are not localized at Cu sites but 22 ± 4% of the total moments exist at oxygen sites in the ordered phase. This behavior is similar to that observed in La9Ca5Cu24O41.
