Title: Unusual Kondo-hole effect and crystal-field frustration in Nd-doped ${CeRhIn}_{5}$

Abstract

In this research, we investigate single crystals of Ce_1₋xNd_xRhIn₅ by means of x-ray-diffraction, microprobe, magnetic susceptibility, heat capacity, and electrical resistivity measurements. Our data reveal that the antiferromagnetic transition of CeRhIn₅, at T$$Ce\atop{N}$$=3.8 K, is linearly suppressed with x_Nd. We associate this effect with the presence of a “Kondo hole” created by Nd substitution. The extrapolation of T$$Ce\atop{N}$$ to zero temperature, however, occurs at x_c~0.3, which is below the two-dimensional percolation limit found in Ce_1₋xLa_xRhIn₅. This result strongly suggests the presence of a crystal-field induced magnetic frustration. Near x_Nd~0.2, the Ising antiferromagnetic order from Nd³⁺ ions is stabilized and T$$Nd\atop{N}$$ increases up to 11 K in NdRhIn₅. Finally, our results shed light on the effects of magnetic doping in heavy-fermion antiferromagnets and stimulate the study of such systems under applied pressure.

Tuning the magnetic anisotropy in ${CeRhIn}_{5}$ via Gd substitution

Journal Article Rosa, P. F. S. ; Faust, L. M. ; Bauer, E. D. ; ... - Physical Review B

In strongly correlated materials, the presence of defects may fundamentally affect both macroscopic and microscopic properties of the system. Here we investigate the effect of Gd substitution in the Kondo antiferromagnet CeRhIn₅. At a concentration of only 11% Gd, the magnetic anisotropy of CeRhIn₅ is drastically reduced at high temperatures, whereas its antiferromagnetic transition, T^Ce_N = 3.8 K, is linearly suppressed with Gd at low temperatures. Here, the extrapolation of T^Ce_N to zero temperature occurs at a critical concentration of x_c ~ 0.63, which is above the two-dimensional percolation limit found in Ce_1–xLa_xRhIn₅ (x_c ~ 0.4), but very close tomore »« less

Journal Article Han, Fei ; Wan, Xiangang ; Phelan, Daniel ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

ZrCuSi₂-type CePd_1-xBi₂ crystals were obtained from excess Bi flux. Magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that CePd_1-xBi₂ is a highly anisotropic antiferromagnet with transition temperature at 6 K, and a magnetic-field-induced metamagnetic transition at 5 T. An enhanced Sommerfeld coefficient of γ of 0.199 J-mol-Ce^-1K^-2 obtained from specific heat measurements suggests a moderate Kondo effect in CePd_1-xBi₂. In addition to the antiferromagnetic peak the resistivity curve shows a shoulder-like behavior which could be attributed to the presence of Kondo effect and crystal-electric-field effects in this compound. Magnetoresistance and Hall effect measurements suggest an interplay between Kondo and crystal-electric-field effects which reconstructs themore »« less

Enhancement of the effective mass at high magnetic fields in ${CeRhIn}_{5}$

Journal Article Jiao, Lin ; Smidman, M. ; Kohama, Yoshi ; ... - Physical Review B

The Kondo-lattice compound CeRhIn₅ displays a field-induced Fermi surface reconstruction at B*≈ 30 T, which occurs within the antiferromagnetic state, prior to the quantum critical point at B_c0 ≈ 50 T. Here, in order to investigate the nature of the Fermi surface change, we measured the magnetostriction, specific heat, and magnetic torque of CeRhIn₅ across a wide range of magnetic fields. Our observations uncover the field-induced itineracy of the 4 f electrons, where above B_onset ≈ 17 T there is a significant enhancement of the Sommerfeld coefficient, and spin-dependent effective cyclotron masses determined from quantum oscillations. Upon crossing B_onset, themore »« less

Tuning the magnetic ground state of ${Ce}_{1 - x} {Yb}_{x} {RhIn}_{5}$ by Yb valence fluctuations

Journal Article Jang, S. ; Pouse, N. ; Keiber, T. ; ... - Physical Review B

We characterize the properties of Ce_1–x Yb_x RhIn₅ single crystals with 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 using measurements of powder x-ray diffraction, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES), and neutron diffraction. Here, the Yb valence v Yb , calculated from the magnetic susceptibility and measured using XANES, decreases from 3+ at x = 0 to ~2.1+ at x_act = 0.2 , where x_act is the measured Yb concentration. A transition from incommensurate to commensurate antiferromagnetism is observed in neutron diffraction measurements along Q = (0.5, 0.5, l) between 0.2 ≤more »« less
