摘要
Transition-metal monosilicide RhGe has been reported to exhibit weak itinerant ferromagnetism,superconductivity,and topological properties.In this study,we report the high-pressure growth of high-quality RhGe single crystals up to millimeter size using a flux method.Transport measurements reveal metallic behavior in RhGe from 2 K to 300 K with Fermi liquid behavior at low temperatures.However,no superconductivity was observed with variations in the Ge composition.Magnetic characterizations indicate that RhGe exhibits paramagnetic behavior between 2 K and 300 K.The high-quality and large-size RhGe single crystals pave the way for further investigation of their topological properties using spectroscopic techniques.
