Fermi-surface properties of CeSn/sub 3/ and related compounds. [LaSn/sub 3/]

OSTI ID:6436460
; ; ;
The Fermi-surface properties of the coherent and incoherent forms of the dense Kondo and mixed-valence models for anomalous Ce compounds are examined. Experimental Fermi-surface data for CeSn/sub 3/ and its isostructural, non-4f analog LaSn/sub 3/ are presented and found to be consistent with either a coherent mixed valence or Kondo lattice interpretation. For CeSn/sub 3/, one-electron band calculations of the Fermi surface geometry are in good agreement with experiment, but the calculated effective masses are too low.
