Magnetic properties of YBa2Cu3Ox single crystals in the normal state
Volkozub A. V., Snigirev O. V., Makarenko I. N., Stishov S. M.
The magnetic susceptibility χ of single-crystal YBa2 Cu3 samples with various oxygen contents has been measured in the normal state. At x < 7 the magnetic susceptibility is anisotropic: χ^/χΐ€ < 1. the ratio χ^/χλι. approaches unity. In a magnetic field in the orientation Η\\c, an anomaly is observed near Tc which is apparently related to anisotropic effects of a fluctuation diamagnetism.
