Abstract
Magnetization curve, magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity were measured for Pr3Co single crystals. The magnetization curves at 1.5, K were measured in magnetic fields up to 7, T. Metamagnetic transitions were observed at 0.85, T along the a-axis and 6.4, T along the b-axis, respectively. From the magnetic susceptibility, the effective magnetic moment is deduced to be 3.59, μ B/Pr ion, which is in good agreement with the Pr3+ free ion value.
