The crystal structure and various measurements of Sn flux grown single crystals of orthorhombic Pr2Co3Ge5 were reported, showing the complex magnetic ordering with a partially spin-polarized state.
The crystal structure, electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), heat capacity, and anisotropic magnetic and resistivity measurements are reported for Sn flux grown single crystals of orthorhombic Pr2Co3Ge5 (U2Co3Si5-type, Ibam). Our findings show that o-Pr2Co3Ge5 hosts nearly trivalent Pr ions, as evidenced by EELS and fits to temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. Complex magnetic ordering with a partially spin-polarized state emerges near T (sp) = 32 K, with a spin reconfiguration transition near T (M) = 15 K. Heat capacity measurements show that the phase transitions appear as broad peaks in the vicinity of T (sp) and T (M). The magnetic entropy further reveals that crystal electric field splitting lifts the Hund's rule degeneracy at low temperatures. Taken together, these measurements show that Pr2Co3Ge5 is an environment for complex f state magnetism with potential strongly correlated electron states.
