Abstract
is a promising candidate for van der Waals bonded ferromagnetic devices since its ferromagnetism can be maintained upon exfoliating bulk crystals down to a single layer. In this work we studied critical properties of bulk single crystals around the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition. Critical exponents = 0.260(4) with a critical temperature = 60.05(13) K and = 1.136(6) with = 60.43(4) K are obtained by the Kouvel-Fisher method, whereas = 5.32(2) is obtained by a critical isotherm analysis at = 60 K. The critical exponents determined in bulk single crystals suggest a three-dimensional long-range magnetic coupling with the exchange distance decaying as .
