Significance

Phase transitions often manifest themselves in characteristic signatures in the electrical resistivity. Here, we track the temperature increase of the resistive signature of the hidden-order (HO) phase transition in URu 2 Si 2 , a mysterious phase with unknown order parameter. The application of pressure and the isoelectronic substitutions of Fe and Os ions for Ru are the only known perturbations to favor the HO phase. These perturbations are likely to cause increases in f - d -electron hybridization that lead to degeneracy and instabilities in the electronic band structure. The degeneracy is lifted by partial gapping of electronic states over the Fermi surface during the transition to HO. This and related investigations point to the importance of isoelectronic perturbations in generating emergent electronic phases.
