摘要
We modulate the spin chirality and the magnetization in CuCrO2, by doping at Cr3+ sites with magnetic ions of slightly different size. Structure and magnetic properties of delafossite oxide CuCr1-xCoxO2 (0 <= x <= 0.06) have been investigated. With the substitution of magnetic Co3+ for Cr3+ (S=3/2), the antiferromagnetic (AF) transition becomes broader and the transition temperature increases. However, at low temperature, the magnetic data for CuCr1-xCoxO2 shows evidence for weak ferromagnetism. Comparing the substitution effect of Co3+ to those of other magnetic metal transition, magnetization around the AF transition does not seem to correlate with randomness and lattice parameter.
