Abstract

We report a study of the low-temperature properties of the ternary europium pnictide EuZn₂Sb₂. Bulk properties were characterized in terms of the electrical resistivity, magnetoresistance, Hall effect, specific heat and magnetization. Pronounced features consistent with antiferromagnetic order of divalent Eu below TN=13.3K are observed. For field parallel to the trigonal c-axis the antiferromagnetism is suppressed above ∼3.5T while it persists up to ∼4.7T for field in the basal plane.
