Abstract

The nonstoichiometric compound Pd_x.Co_y,O₂ (x = 0.72,y = 0.68) were carefully prepared by the metathetical reaction and characterized by the measurements of the powder X-ray diffraction, the inductively coupled plasma spectrum, the DC magnetic susceptibility, and the specific heat. The stoichiometric PdC_oO₂ exhibits Pauliparamagnetism, while two magnetic phase transitions were indeed observed in Pd_0.72Co_0.68O₂. The deviation of fieldcooled from zero-field-cooled curves appears below 55 K, indicating a certain kind of antiferromagnetic phase transition. The well-defined cusp is seen with a peak at T_g = 4.5 K, indicating the existence of spin-glass like transition.
