Abstract

We report on superconductive properties of LaRhSn single crystal studied by resistivity and specific heat measurements. Resistivity measurements revealed anisotropy between measurements performed along the a-axis the c-axis, but the critical temperatures are almost the same (Tc = 1.9 K for a-axis and Tc = 1.83 K. for c-axis). The transition to the superconductive state is accompanied by a peak in the specific heat data. The critical field mu0Hc rises from 0.168 T at 1.5 K to 0.735 T at 0.11 K.
