最近Pu化合物で高い臨界温度を示す超伝導体が115構造を持つ化合物で発見された。PuCoGa()とPuRhGa()。この発見はアクチニド化合物研究の興味を大きくした。本研究では同型だが超伝導を示さない115化合物のNMRの研究を行い、超伝導体と比較することにより、超伝導発現機構について検討した。

Recently, new superconductors have been discovered in Pu-based HoCoGa(115) structure compounds: PuCoGa () and PuRhGa (). The discovery has stimulated a lot of interest in actinide compounds. We report NMR measurements on a high-quality single crystal sample of the non-superconducting U- and Np-based 115 compounds. In order to elucidate universal magnetic properties and the origin of superconductivity in the 115 families, spin-lattice relaxation and Knight shift measurements have been performed systematically in the non-superconducting 115 compounds. Comparison of dynamical properties with the superconducting Pu115 compounds will be presented.
