Abstract

Herein, we report on the magnetic properties of ${\mathrm{LaVO}}_{3}$. We have observed diamagnetism in this compound, which is an antiferromagnetic insulator, below the N\'eel temperature under field-cooled conditions. We observe hysteresis in magnetization versus applied field M(H) isotherms below the N\'eel temperature. ${\mathrm{LaVO}}_{3}$ has a ferromagnetic component to the spin ordering, due to canting of spins and/or due to ferrimagnetism. Four-probe resistivity measurements rule out the possibility of superconductivity and the dimagnetism appears to be associated with uncompensated antiferromagnetism (ferrimagnetism). From our $^{51}\mathrm{V}$ NMR measurements on ${\mathrm{LaVO}}_{3}$ we associate the kink in susceptibility with magnetic ordering.
