We verified the intimate relation between magnetism and volume in Mn3ZnN. The sample sintered at 900 °C is characterized by the Γ5g triangular antiferromagnetic (AF) state with larger volume below 170 K. However, for the sample sintered at 700 °C, the re-entrant phase transition appears at 80 K and the ground state is a different AF state with smaller volume. These results indicate that the ground state of Mn3ZnN is sensitive to the disorder in the N site and that the magnetic structure drastically alters magnetovolume effects. More detailed consideration is necessary beyond the conventional scheme, which incorporates only the amplitude of the magnetic moment.
