Abstract
We successfully grew the high-quality single crystals of FeSe ( K and Cs) by self-flux method. Sharp superconducting transition was observed for both types of crystals. The crystals show the onset superconducting transition temperatures () of 31 and 30 K for K and Cs compounds, respectively, with nearly 100 superconductive shielding fraction. The crystals show quite high resistivity in the normal state of more than 160 and 1300 cm maximum resistivity for FeSe and CsFeSe single crystals, respectively. Much larger upper critical field is inferred from low-temperature isomagnetic-field magnetoresistance in these crystals than in FeSe. The anisotropy (0)/(0) is estimated to be around 3 for both of the two materials. Anisotropic peculiar magnetic behavior in normal state has been found for CsFeSe
