Abstract
Magnetization measurements for the compound SmCo3B2 have been performed on loose powder in magnetic fields to 5 T and in the temperature region from 4.2 to 60 K. A small saturation moment of 0.18 μB/SmCo3B2 at T=4.2 K and its variation with increasing temperature suggest ferrimagnetic ordering in SmCo3B2, which is explained as the effect of a higher order crystalline field coefficient. A magnetic first order transition occurs at T=43 K and metamagnetism occurs in the narrow temperature region between 43 and 47 K, for which some possible discussions are given.
