Description

Magnetic and magnetoresistance effect of needle shaped crystal and slightly Co rich Ca3Co2O6 was investigated in a temperature range between 2 and 100 K and in a dc magnetic field range less than 7 T and in pulsed fields less than 20 T. We found 1/3m s and 2/3m s plateaus of the magnetization for the full magnetization m s and large negative magnetoresistance effect of 10% at the same magnetic fields, respectively
