被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：48.82(Chemistry, Physical)We study structural and magnetic properties of rare-earth based semimetals 
AuGe ( = Y, Gd-Tm, and Lu) using flux-grown single crystals. We evaluate the crystal electric field parameters based on the Stevens operators to reasonably reproduce the temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibilities and specific heat for RAuGe ( = TbTm). The estimated energy scale of the Ising gap (
11 meV) in TmAuGe is consistent with an excitation observed in an inelastic neutron scattering experiment. These findings suggest an opportunity for interplay between conduction electrons and nontrivial spin structures in the family of magnetic polar semimetals AuGe.

被引用回数：40 パーセンタイル：91.4(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)For the skyrmion-hosting intermetallic GdPdSi with centrosymmetric hexagonal lattice and triangular net of rare earth sites, we report a thorough investigation of the magnetic phase diagram. Our work reveals a magnetic phase with an isotropic value of the critical field for all orientations, where the magnetic ordering vector 
is depinned from its preferred directions in the basal plane. The bulk nature of the skyrmion lattice and of other magnetic phases was evidenced by specific-heat measurements. Resistivity anisotropy, likely originating from partial gapping of the density of states along in this Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yoshida magnet, is picked up via the planar Hall effect (PHE). The PHE confirms the single- nature of the magnetic order when the field is in the hexagonal plane, and allows one to detect the preferred directions of . Several scenarios for the depinned phase are discussed on the basis of the data.
