摘要
Single crystals of UMo6S8, UMo6Se8 and ThMo6S8 were obtained using the slow cooling method. Refinements of their crystal structure (R = 0.030, 0.032 and 0.029 respectively) revealed a non-integral occupancy of the actinide sites in the U-selenide and the Th- sulfide, giving the formula U0.82Mo6Se8 and Th0.81Mo6S8. Magnetic measurements showed weak ferromagnetism behaviour below 25 K for U0.82Mo6Se8, and a transition from weak paramagnetism to diamagnetism at 3 K for Th0.81Mo6S8, suggesting the onset of superconductivity. UMo6S8 follows a Curie-Weiss type behaviour down to 2 K.
