Abstract
Details of the single crystal growth of incongruently melting TbB6, Dy B6, HoB6, and YB6 using a crucible-free vertical floating zone method are reported. Magnetic susceptibility is reported and discussed. It is suggested that antiferro-quadrupolar ordering occurs in DyB6 between 30 and 25.6 K. (C) 1997 Academic Press.
