We report the divergence of the nonlinear component of the bulk susceptibility in NaxCoO2 (0.3<x<0.62) as T goes to 0 K. These experiments provide an striking evidence of the existence of a ferromagnetic phase transition at zero Kelvin…

Thermodynamic and transport measurements on NaxCoO2 (x ~ 0.7-0.75) over a wide temperature range reveal a strongly enhanced low energy excitation spectrum. The zero-field specific heat and resistance at low temperature are proportional to…

We synthesized Nax(H3O)zCoO2yH2O samples with various Na/H3O ratios but with the constant Co valence of s = +3.40, and measured their magnetic properties to draw phase diagrams of the system. The superconductivity is very sensitive to the…

Data taken by various kinds of methods including NMR/NQR and neutron scattering are presented for NaxCoO2, in particular, for Na0.5CoO2. Attentions have also been paid to the x dependence of the electronic nature. The pseudo-gap-like…

Powder Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ ($0.70\leq x\leq 0.84$) samples were synthesized and characterized carefully by X-ray diffraction analysis, inductive-coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy, and redox titration. It was proved that…

Here we report the magnetic properties of the layered cobalt oxide system, LixCoO2, in the whole range of Li composition, 0 <= x <= 1. Based on dc-magnetic susceptibility data, combined with results of 59Co-NMR/NQR observations, the…

We have performed specific heat and electric resistivity measurements of Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ ($x=0.70$-0.78). Two anomalies have been observed in the specific heat data for $x=0.78$, corresponding to magnetic transitions at $T_{c}=22$ K and…

Using muon spin rotation, well-defined bulk ~ 100% magnetic phases in NaxCoO2 are revealed. A novel magnetic phase is detected for x = 0.85 with the highest transition temperature ever observed for x >= 0.75. This stresses the diversity of…

Specific heat of the layered NaxCoO2 (x=0.65, 0.70 and 0.75) oxides has been measured in the temperature range of 3-360 K and magnetic field of 0 and 9 T. The analysis of data, assuming the combined effect of inter-layer superexchange and…

We prove the direct link between low temperature magnetism and high temperature sodium ordering in NaxCoO2 using the example of a heretofore unreported magnetic transition at 8 K which involves a weak ferromagnetic moment. The 8 K feature…

Magnetic properties of the novel layered superconductor, Na$_{0.35}$CoO$_{2}$$\cdot$1.3H$_{2}$O have been investigated. From the temperature dependence and field dependence of the magnetization, the superconducting transition temperature,…

Studies of the NMR Knight shift K of Na0.3CoO2.yH2O have been carried out in detail. The suppression of K by the occurrence of the superconductivity reported previously by the present authors in both magnetic field directions perpendicular…

Electronic properties of the sodium cobaltate NaxCoO2 are systematically studied through a precise control of band filling. Resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements are carried out on a series of high-quality…

We have synthesized and characterized four different stable phases of Na ordered Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$, for $0.65<x<0.8$. Above 100 K they display similar Curie-Weiss susceptibilities as well as ferromagnetic $q=0$ spin fluctuations in the…

We measured the resistivity and magnetic susceptibility to map out the phase diagram of single crystalline NaFe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$As. Replacement of Fe by Co suppresses both the structural and magnetic transition, while enhances the…

The magnetic properties of alkali-metal peroxychromate K$_2$NaCrO$_8$ are governed by the $S = 1/2$ pentavalent chromium cation, Cr$^{5+}$. Specific heat, magnetocalorimetry, ac magnetic susceptibility, torque magnetometry, and inelastic…

We have performed a temperature-dependent photoemission study of a NaxCoO2 (x~0.8) epitaxial thin film prepared by the reactive solid-phase epitaxy method. The chemical potential shift as a function of temperature was derived from the Co 3d…

Dimerized magnets forming alternating Heisenberg chains exhibit quantum coherence and entanglement and thus can find potential applications in quantum information and computation. However, magnetic systems typically undergo thermal…

We synthesized the five batches of the samples of the novel P3 type superconductor, Na$_{x}$(H$_{3}$O)$_{y'}$CoO$_{2}\cdot y''$H$_{2}$O, by the soft chemical process starting from $\alpha$-NaCoO$_{2}$. The chemical and structural properties…

Magnetic, transport, and specific heat measurements have been performed on layered metallic oxide Na$_{1.5}$Co$_2$O$_4$ as a function of temperature $T$. Below a characteristic temperature $T^*$=30$-$40 K, electrical resistivity shows a…
