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.

Ferromagnetism
Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets.
