Abstract
The magnetic properties of a two-dimensional spin-gap compound SrCu2(BO3)(2 ), realizing the Shastry-Sutherland model, were investigated using high-qua lity single crystals. The analysis of the temperature-dependent magnetic su sceptibility revealed a spin gap of 34K. The magnetization curve at 0.4K po ssibly has, in addition to the already established one-quarter and one-eigh th plateaux, another quantized plateau at one-tenth of the full Cu moment, which is one of the plateaux predicted by Miyahara and Ueda.
