Anisotropic Magnetoresistance in Charge-Ordering Na₀.₃₄(H₃O)₀.₁₅CoO₂:Strong Spin-Charge Coupling and Spin Ordering

الأصل · EN

Angular-dependent in-plane magnetoresistance (AMR) for single crystal Na₀.₃₄(H₃O)₀.₁₅CoO₂ with charge ordering is studied systematically. The anisotropic magnetoresistance shows a twofold symmetry at high temperature with rotating H in the Co-O plane, while a sixfold symmetry below a certain temperature (Tρ). At Tρ, the symmetry of AMR changes from twofold to fourfold with rotating magnetic field (H) in the plane consisting of the current and c-axis. The variation of AMR symmetry with temperature arises from the subtle changes of the spin structure. These results give a direct evidence for the itinerant electrons directly coupled to the localized spins.
