Pressure-Resistant Intermediate Valence in the Kondo Insulator ${SmB}_{6}$

Journal Article Butch, Nicholas P. ; Paglione, Johnpierre ; Chow, Paul ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Resonant x-ray emission spectroscopy was used to determine the pressure dependence of the f-electron occupancy in the Kondo insulator SmB₆. Applied pressure reduces the f occupancy, but surprisingly, the material maintains a significant divalent character up to a pressure of at least 35 GPa. Thus, the closure of the resistive activation energy gap and onset of magnetic order are not driven by stabilization of an integer valent state. In conclusion, over the entire pressure range, the material maintains a remarkably stable intermediate valence that can in principle support a nontrivial band structure.

Quantum Oscillations in Flux-Grown ${SmB}_{6}$ with Embedded Aluminum

Journal Article Thomas, Sean Michael ; Ding, Xiaxin ; Ronning, Filip ; ... - Physical Review Letters

SmB₆ is a candidate topological Kondo insulator that displays surface conduction at low temperatures. In this study, we perform torque magnetization measurements as a means to detect de Haas–van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations in SmB₆ crystals grown by aluminum flux. We find that dHvA oscillations occur in single crystals containing embedded aluminum, originating from the flux used to synthesize SmB₆. Measurements on a sample with multiple, unconnected aluminum inclusions show that aluminum crystallizes in a preferred orientation within the SmB₆ cubic lattice. The presence of aluminum is confirmed through bulk susceptibility measurements, but does not show a signature in transport measurements.more »« less

Bulk Rotational Symmetry Breaking in Kondo Insulator ${SmB}_{6}$

Journal Article Xiang, Z. ; Lawson, B. ; Asaba, T. ; ... - Physical Review. X

The Kondo insulator samarium hexaboride (SmB₆) has been intensely studied in recent years as a potential candidate of a strongly correlated topological insulator. One of the most exciting phenomena observed in SmB₆ is the clear quantum oscillations appearing in magnetic torque at a low temperature despite the insulating behavior in resistance. These quantum oscillations show multiple frequencies and varied effective masses. The origin of quantum oscillation is, however, still under debate with evidence of both two-dimensional Fermi surfaces and three-dimensional Fermi surfaces. Here, we carry out angle-resolved torque magnetometry measurements in a magnetic field up to 45 T and amore »« less

Hall Anomaly, Quantum Oscillations and Possible Lifshitz Transitions in Kondo Insulator ${YbB}_{12}$ : Evidence for Unconventional Charge Transport

Journal Article Xiang, Ziji ; Chen, Kuan-Wen ; Chen, Lu ; ... - Physical Review. X

In correlated electronic systems, strong interactions and the interplay between different degrees of freedom may give rise to anomalous charge-transport properties, which can be tuned by external parameters like temperature and magnetic field. Recently, magnetic quantum oscillations and metallic low- temperature thermal conductivity have been observed in the Kondo insulator YbB₁₂, whose resistivity is a few orders of magnitude higher than those of conventional metals. As yet, these unusual observations are not fully understood. Here we present a detailed investigation of the behavior of YbB₁₂ under intense magnetic fields using both transport and torque magnetometry measurements. The Hall resistivity displaysmore »« less
