title: CoV2O6 single crystals grown in a closed crucible: unusual magnetic behaviors with large anisotropy and 1/3 magnetization plateau.
abstract: Single crystals of CoV(2)O(6) were obtained in a closed crucible using a flux method. Magnetic measurements showed that this material displays a large magnetic anisotropy and a 1/3 magnetization plateau under a magnetic field applied along the c axis.
