A single crystal of U3Fe2Ge7 was synthesized by the tin-flux method, and its structural and electronic properties were studied. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal structure with two sites for the U atoms. It is a ferromagnet below TC = 62 K. Magnetization measurements in static (up to 14 T) and pulsed (up to 60 T) magnetic fields revealed a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy. The easy magnetization direction is along the c axis and a spontaneous magnetic moment of 3.3 mB per formula unit at 2 K. The moment per Fe atom is 0.2 mB, as follows from Mossbauer spectroscopy. The magnetic moments are oriented perpendicular to the shortest inter-uranium distances that occur within the zigzag chains in the ab plane. The magnetization along the a axis reveals a first-order magnetization process that allows for a quantitative description of the magnetic anisotropy.
