Single Crystal Growth and Physical Properties of Pyroxene CoGeO3

Single Crystal Growth and Physical Properties of Pyroxene CoGeO3

We report on the synthesis and physical properties of cm-sized CoGeO$_3$ single crystals grown in a high pressure mirror furnace at pressures of 80~bar. Direction dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements on our single crystals reveal highly anisotropic magnetic properties that we attribute to the impact of strong single ion anisotropy appearing …
