摘要：
We report the first measurements of anisotropy in magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, and electrical resistivity using single crystals of GdTSb3 (T = Cr, V). GdTSb3 is a quasi-two dimensional system with orthorhombic crystal structure (space group: Pbcm). Unlike the other light rare earth chromium antimonides (R = Ce-Nd, Sm), in which two magnetic transitions are observed, GdCrSb3 undergoes a single ferrimagnetic transition at T-C = 86 K, which is evident in both the magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity. Within the b-c plane, GdCrSb3 is found to have metallic behavior from 5 to 300 K, but it is found to have insulating behavior (drho(a)/dT<0) along the stacking axis. GdVSb3 is found to have a Neel transition at 5 K due to the localized Gd ions, but no ferromagnetic transition. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
