Large magnetoresistance and first-order phase transition in antiferromagnetic single-crystalline EuAg4Sb2
Abstrakt
present the results of a thorough investigation of the physical properties of single crystals using magnetization, heat capacity, and electrical resistivity measurements. High-quality single crystals, which crystallize in a trigonal structure with space group , were grown using a conventional flux method. Temperature-dependent magnetization measurements along different crystallographic orientations confirm two antiferromagnetic phase transitions around and . Isothermal magnetization data exhibit several metamagnetic transitions below these transition temperatures. Antiferromagnetic phase transitions in are further confirmed by two sharp peaks in the temperature-dependent heat capacity data at 1 and 2, which shift to lower temperature in the presence of an external magnetic field. Our systematic heat capacity measurements utilizing a long-pulse and single-slope analysis technique allow us to detect a first-order phase transition in EuAg4Sb2 at 7.5 K. The temperature-dependent electrical resistivity data also manifest two features associated with magnetic order. The magnetoresistance exhibits a broad hump due to a field-induced metamagnetic transition. Remarkably, the magnetoresistance keeps increasing without showing any tendency to saturate as the applied magnetic field increases, and it reaches ∼20 000% at 1.6 K and 60 T. At high magnetic fields, several magnetic quantum oscillations are observed, indicating a complex Fermi surface. A large negative magnetoresistance of about −55% is also observed near 1. Moreover, the − phase diagram constructed using magnetization, heat capacity, and magnetotransport data indicates complex magnetic behavior in EuAg4Sb2.
