Abstract
We report anisotropic dc magnetic susceptibility χ(T), isothermal magnetization M(H), electrical resistivity ρ(T) and heat capacity C(T) measurements on a high quality single crystalline sample of NdCrSb3. The crystal exhibits ferromagnetic ordering below TC=100 K due to ordering of Cr spins. The ferromagnetic phase is highly anisotropic. The anisotropy becomes even more evident at low temperatures where the rare earth ion (Nd3+) gets magnetically ordered. Nd moments order ferromagnetically below 10 K. The magnetic interplay between these two species (Cr3+ and Nd3+ ions) gives NdCrSb3 a complex magnetic phase diagram.
