Abstract

The magnetic and transport properties are systematically studied on the single crystal Na(0.55)CoO2 with the resistivity divergence below 50 K. A weak ferromagnetic ordering is observed in susceptibility below 20 K with the magnetic field parallel to the Co-O plane, while no such ferromagnetic ordering is observed with the field perpendicular to the Co-O plane. It gives evidence for the existence of in-plane ferromagnetism below 20 K. The observed magnetoresistance of 30% at the field of 6 T at low temperatures indicates an unexpectedly strong spin-charge coupling in the triangle lattice NaxCoO2 system.
