Anisotropy of the physical properties of uniaxial antiferromagnetic USb2

Magnon Drag Effect on Resistivity and Thermoelectric Power of Semimetallic Antiferromagnet USb

“…On the other hand a qualitatively similar and also strongly enhanced anomaly of p(T) was observed for UP 2 and USb2 [16] along the easy magnetic direction. These two uniaxial antiferromagnets show metal-like carrier concentrations equal to 1.2 and 0.53 e/f.u.…”

“…4a. The p α Τ2 38 dependence is observed for ceramic UN [25] and p α Τ5/2 dependence occurs for ab plane of monocrystalline USb2 [16]. Therefore we have plotted resistivity data for samples A and B vs. (T/TN) in the range ca.…”

Antiferromagnetic ordering with an anisotropy reversal in

“…Uranium dipnictides UX 2 (X ¼ As; Sb and Bi) are subject of intensive investigations over the past four decades [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. These compounds crystallise in a tetragonal, anti-Cu 2 Sb-type structure (space group P4/nmm) and order antiferromagnetically at relatively high Ne´el temperatures [1][2][3][4].…”

Surface structure of cleaved (001) USb2single crystal

“…It has a layered tetragonal structure that is easily cleaved and has been extensively studied by a number of different techniques, such as resistivity [6], Hall effect measurements [7], photoemission [8] and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy [9,10], de Haas-van Alphen [11][12][13], neutron diffraction [14], U 238 anti-ferromagnetic nuclear magnetic resonance [15], and U 238 Mossbauer spectroscopy [16] techniques. A great deal of information is already known about its structure and magnetic and electronic properties.…”
