摘要
The magnetic characteristics of the single crystal compound TbCu2Ge2 have been studied by magnetic susceptibility and magnetization measurements. The susceptibility shows two anomalies at T-N = 12.3 K and T-t = 9.3 K. The magnetic easy direction is the [I 10] direction in the basal plane. The magnetization along the easy direction in the basal plane shows a multi-step (at least four steps) metamagnetic process. No significant change of the process is observed at T, A one-step metamagnetic transition appears around 17 T in the hard c-axis magnetization process. This transition persists above TN up to 25 K where the susceptibility shows a broad peak. The origin is unsolved yet. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
