Abstract:
We investigate a series of single crystalline samples of LiTMxCu2−xO2 (TM=Ni and Zn) grown by floating-zone technique. As-grown crystals showed a clear X-ray diffraction pattern of pure(single) phase. These crystals exhibit varied magnetic and electrical properties owing to successful incorporation of Ni and Zn dopants.
