de Haas-van Alphen experiments in pulsed magnetic fields

Conference ·
OSTI ID:273760
The powerful combination of de Haas-van Alphen effect and pulsed magnetic fields enables the study of the Fermi surface and the electronic properties of various materials of current interest. In this contribution I discuss experiments on CeB6, a heavy fermion, on YBa{sub 2}Cu{sub 3}Awe{sub 7-{delta}}, a high-Tc superconductor, and on A1{sub 7O}Pd{sub 2l.5}Mn{sub 8.5}, a quasicrystal. For each of these experiments I will point out the essential contribution of the pulsed magnetic field.
