Search for magnetic ordered phase in Zn_(0.99)Co_(0.01)O compound using μSR method

摘要

The behavior of the polarization of negative muons in Zn_(0.99)Co_(0.01)O was studied in order to search for a possible magnetic ordered phase. The sample was obtained using solid phase synthesis from ZnO and Co_3O_4. Measurements were performed in a magnetic field of 1.5 kG transverse to the muon spin in a temperature range of 5-300 K and in the absence of an external magnetic field at 6 K. No evidence of long-range magnetic order were observed.
