(a) Magnetic susceptibility (M/H) vs. temperature plots for the NTO single crystal under an external magnetic field of H = 100 Oe, applied parallel and perpendicular to the crystallographic c-axis. The inset shows an expanded view of the 47–67 K region, which includes a weak shoulder-like feature close to TSO (~60 K) in both FC and ZFC modes when the magnetic field is applied parallel to the c-axis. (b) Derivative of magnetization (M) versus temperature (T) plots for H// c at various magnetic fields to provide a better view of the feature close to TSO. The dM/dT plot at the 2.5 T magnetic field correspond to the right axis, whereas the dM/dT plots at weaker magnetic fields correspond to the left axis, as shown by the arrows. The inset shows the corresponding normalized dM/dT plots [(dM/dT)/(dM/dT at T = TN)]. (c) Normalized dM/dT plots for H⊥ c.
