Abstract

The magnetic susceptibility, high-field magnetization and specific heat of Cu₃(CO₃)₂(OH)₂, an actual material for the frustrating diamond chain spin model, have been measured using single crystals. Two broad peaks were observed at around 22 and 5 K both in the magnetic susceptibility and the specific heat. The magnetization curve had a definite plateau at one-third of the saturation magnetization.
