Specific heat measurements in the temperature region from 2 to 50 K in magnetic field up to 10 T, oriented parallel and perpendicularly to the CoO₂ layers were carried out on a series of high-quality single- crystals of NaxCoO₂ (x = 0.73, 0.76, 0.77, 0.78 and 0.87). Surprisingly, sharp lambda type a...
