The relationship between the onset Néel temperature T^on _N and the interchain distance (d_ic), which increases monotonically with n, is well fitted by the formula T_N/T_N,0 =(1-d_ic/d_ic,0)^β ; here T^on _N ~ 100 K for Ca3Co2O6 (n = 1) and ~15 K for BaCoO3 (n=∞) at ambient P. The T^on _N - d_ic curve also predicts a large P dependence of T_N for the compounds with n ≧ 5, i.e., in the vicinity of d_ic,0, while the n = 1–4 compounds show only a very small effect. Indeed, our high-pressure μ+SR results show that T_N of BaCoO3 is enhanced by P with a slope of 2.2 K/GPa, whereas no detectable changes by P for both Ca3Co2O6 and Sr4Co3O9 (n =2). This clearly confirms the role of the 2D-antiferromagnetic interaction on T^on _N in the Q1D cobalt oxides.}, pages = {197206--197206}, title = {Evidence of Two Dimensionality in Quasi-One-Dimensional Cobalt Oxides}, volume = {96}, year = {2006} }
