摘要
The LaCoO3 single crystal, 4 mm in diameter and 30 mm in length, has been grown by optical floating zone method. The magnetic measurements show that the coercivity and the remanence are 5 Oe and 1.5 x 10(-3) emu/g at 5 K, respectively. The ZFC and FC magnetic susceptibility curves overlap and the 1/chi(T) curve shows a linear variation over the interval 5 K < T < 35 K in 1000 Oe. As the temperature increases from 35 K to 90 K, the ZFC curve in 1000 Oe firstly reduces nonlinearly, and then appears as a wave crest. The chi under ZFC is higher than that under FC in the temperature range of 55 similar to 90 K. In 50000 Oe, a slope change of 1/chi(T) at about 12 K is observed.
