Abstract A weak ferromagnetic transition has been observed for the T'-type compound Eu1.85Ca0.15CuO4. The samples were prepared by a high pressure (5 GPa) synthesis technique. Their transition temperature occurred at 27 K. At 5 K the residual magnetization was 0.033 emu/g, the coercive force was 6.3×104 A/m and the saturation field was larger than 1.6×105 A/m. A field cooling method is proposed as a very convenient way to determine the residual magnetization and coercive force. The compound Eu1.85Ca0.15CuO4 is suggested to use as a sensor to measure the remanant field of SQUID magnetometer.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
