Magnetic, transport, and thermodynamic properties ofCaMn2O4single crystals

Abstract: Physical properties including magnetic susceptibility, room-temperature electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and thermal expansion are reported for high quality single-crystal samples of marokite CaMn 2 O 4. We determined that CaMn 2 O 4 is highly electrically insulating and exhibits long-range antiferromagnetic order below T N = 217.5Ϯ 0.6 K with easy axis along a. Anisotropic thermal expansion, similar to that of crystallographically layered materials, is observed, suggesting that the… Show more

“…The wave vectors associated with the order parameters of these two phases can become locked to one another between the two transition temperatures. 29 The interaction of the two order parameters in CuO is further complicated by the phase transition temperature separation of only 0.6 K. In practice, critical behavior is observed in magnetic systems 24,31 when the reduced temperature t ≡ (T − T N )/T N is within the range 10 −1 |t| 10 −3 . Thus, 094420-3 for CuO it is certain that the region where the critical behavior associated with the phase transition at T N2 occurs extends well into the region of critical behavior associated with the phase transition at T N3 and vice versa.…”

“…The thermal expansion for T T N is negative, which is similar to other magnetically ordered elements like Cr, Ce, and Gd, and alloys like Invar Fe 0.65 Ni 0. 35 . This negative thermal expansion is probably related to the volume dependence of the magnetic exchange interactions.…”
