Abstract

Growth of α-Cu5O2(SeO3)2Cl2 single crystals with unique up-up and down-down ferromagnetic spin-dimers that results in higher magnetoelectric coupling.

  • The quality of the grown a-Cu5O2(SeO3)2Cl2 single crystals was determined by high-resolution synchrotron X-ray diffraction (SXRD) using the TPS 09A beamline of the Taiwan Photon Source at the National Synchrotron Radiation Research Center

  • Temperaturedependent specific heat C(T) measurements were performed on a plate-like single crystal using a heat-pulsed thermal relaxation calorimeter in the temperature range of 2–300 K and in magnetic fields of up to H = 9 T
