Abstract

Magnetization studies on an aggregate of single crystals of ferrimagnetic CoMnO3 oriented with their trigonal axes parallel gave a value of K1+2K2= −1.4/×107 erg/cm3 at 300°K for the magnetocrystalline anisotropy expressed in the usual form: K0+K1 sin2θ+K2 sin4θ. The very large anisotropy is believed to arise from partial removal of the orbital degeneracy of the 4T1 ground state by a trigonal component of the crystal field. The anisotropy energy was calculated following the method of Slonczewski except that the entire ground-state manifold was treated rather than using a perturbation approach. The fact that the moments lie perpendicular to the trigonal axis makes the more complete calculation necessary. The observed anisotropy energy was obtained for a trigonal splitting of 1250 cm−1 and a spin orbital parameter (αλ) of 204 cm−1. The sign of the trigonal splitting is such that an orbital singlet lies lowest.
