The magnetic and transport properties of Fe-deficient Fe5GeTe2 single crystals (Fe5-xGeTe2 with x~0.3) were studied and the impact of thermal processing was explored. Quenching crystals from the growth temperature has been previously shown to produce a metastable state that undergoes a strongly hysteretic first-order transition upon cooling below ~100K. The first-order transition impacts the magnetic properties, yielding an enhancement in the Curie temperature T_C from 270 to 310K. In the present work, T_HT ~550K has been identified as the temperature above which metastable crystals are obtained via quenching. Diffraction experiments reveal a structural change at this temperature, and significant stacking disorder occurs when samples are slowly cooled through this temperature range. The transport properties are demonstrated to be similar regardless of the crystals thermal history. The scattering of charge carriers appears to be dominated by moments fluctuating on the Fe(1) sublattice, which remain dynamic down to 100-120K. Maxima in the magnetoresistance and anomalous Hall resistance are observed near 120K. The Hall and Seebeck coefficients are also impacted by magnetic ordering on the Fe(1) sublattice. The data suggest that both electrons and holes contribute to conduction above 120K, but that electrons dominate at lower temperature when all of the Fe sublattices are magnetically ordered. This study demonstrates a strong coupling of the magnetism and transport properties in Fe5-xGeTe2 and complements the previous results that demonstrated strong magnetoelastic coupling as the Fe(1) moments order.

A series of high quality NaFe$_{1-x}$Cu$_x$As single crystals has been grown by a self-flux technique, which were systematically characterized via structural, transport, thermodynamic, and high pressure measurements. Both the structural and magnetic
A lack of spatial inversion symmetry gives rise to a variety of unconventional physics, from noncollinear order and Skyrmion lattice phases in magnetic materials to topologically-protected surface states in certain band insulators, to mixed-parity pa
Single crystals of RbOs2O6 have been grown from Rb2O and Os in sealed quartz ampoules. The crystal structure has been identified at room temperature as cubic with the lattice constant a = 10.1242(12) A. The anisotropy of the tetrahedral and octahedra
We combine the results of magnetic and transport measurements with neutron diffraction data to construct the structural and magnetic phase diagram of the entire family of SrMn$_{1-x}$Ru$_{x}$O$_3$ ($0 leqslant x leqslant 1$) perovskites. We have foun
Numerous contemporary investigations in condensed matter physics are devoted to high temperature (high-$T_c$ ) cuprate superconductors. Despite its unique effulgence among research subjects, the enigma of the high-$T_c$ mechanism still persists. One
