Times Cited Count:17 Percentile:57.34(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We report a resonant X-ray scattering study of the antiferromagnetic neptunium compounds NpCoGa and NpRhGa. Large resonant signals of magnetic dipole character are observed below the Nel temperatures. The signals at the Np edges confirm the behavior determined previously from neutron diffraction. On application of a magnetic field of 9 T along the [010] direction in NpRhGa, we observe a change in the population of different [110]-type domains. We also observe a magnetic dipole signal at the Ga edge, similarly to the reported UGa case, that can be interpreted within a semilocalized model as an orbital polarization of the Ga 4 states induced via strong hybridization with the Np 5 valence band. Quantitative analysis of the signal shows that the Ga dipole on the two different Ga sites follows closely the Np magnetic moment reorientation in NpRhGa. The ratios of the signals on the two inequivalent Ga sites are not the same for the different compounds.

Times Cited Count:21 Percentile:63.99(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Neutron scattering experiments have revealed a field-induced antiferroquadrupolar order parameter in the Pr-based heavy-fermion superconductor PrOsSb. We observed the field-induced antiferromagnetic dipole moment with the propagation vector = (1 0 0) for the applied field direction both [1 1 0] and [0 0 1]. For [1 1 0] at 8 T, it should be noted that the induced antiferromagnetic moment of 0.16 / Pr orients parallel to the field within our experimental accuracy. This observation is strong evidence that the electric quadrupole to be the primary order parameter for [1 1 0]. A mean-field calculation, based on singlet and excited triplet with the quadrupolar interaction, reproduces the induced moment direction and its field response. These facts indicate the predominance of -type antiferroquadrupolar interaction in PrOsSb.

Times Cited Count:32 Percentile:32.94(Physics, Condensed Matter)This topical review presents results from neutron inelastic scattering experiments on single crystals of UPdAl. We present a detailed and complete characterization of the wave vector- and energy-dependent magnetization dynamics in UPdAl as measured by neutron inelastic scattering primarily in the form of extensive surveys in energy-momentum space under a wide range of experimental conditions, and put our observations in context with data that has been published previously by two independent groups. This study yields unique insight into the low-temperature ground state, which exhibits a microscopic coexistence of antiferromagnetism and superconductivity, makingUPdAl one of the most accessible heavy-fermion superconductors that can be fully characterized by neutron spectroscopy.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:6.21(Physics, Condensed Matter)Neutron diffraction experiments under magnetic fields were carried out on the heavy fermion superconductor PrOsSb in order to reveal the origin of the field-induced ordered phase (FIOP) for [1,1,0]. The application of magnetic field induces the weak superlattice peaks with the ordering vector =(1,0,0) in FIOP, which is the same as for [0,0,1]. The observed superlattice reflections for [1,1,0] result from the antiferromagnetic component of +; the induced tiny antiferromagnetic moments orient parallel to the applied field. This result cannot be explained by magnetic interactions and strongly evidences the underlying AFQ order with as a primary order parameter. These facts clarify the dominant role of -type antiferroquadrupolar interaction in PrOsSb.

Times Cited Count:8 Percentile:37.60(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We report a resonant X-ray scattering study of antiferromagnetic uranium compounds UGa (=Ni, Pd, and Pt) at the Ga -edge. A large resonant signal is observed below the Nel temperatures. The azimuth dependence in both - and - polarization channels establishes that the resonant signal has the symmetry of the magnetic dipole. This resonance with the band electrons is interpreted within a semi-localized model as an orbital polarization of the Ga states induced through strong hybridization with U valence level. These results demonstrate that resonant magnetic X-ray scattering at the anions, taken in combination with symmetry arguments, can be used to determine the configuration of the U moments and provide information about the hybridization.

Times Cited Count:59 Percentile:88.45(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The crystal structure, lattice strain due to the antiferromagnetic ordering and magnetic form factor in the itinerant 5 compounds UTGa (T: Ni, Pd, Pt) have been studied by neutron scattering. High-resolution powder diffraction revealed that the tetragonality of the U-Ga layers increases with the ionic radius of the transition metal element T. The observed antiferromagnetic reflections can be well explained with the Nel-type structure for UNiGa, whereas UPtGa has the antiferromagnetic stacking of the ferromagnetically ordered uranium moments in the -plane. The orbital contributions in the magnetic form factor are reduced from the free ion value, especially for UNiGa. This suppression shows a strong correlation with the bulk magnetic susceptibility. The tetragonality of the U-Ga layers is a sensitive measure of the nearest neighbour interaction, the lattice anomaly, and the orbital contribution and suggests that orbital degrees of freedom may play an important role for the magnetic properties in these itinerant 5 antiferromagnets.
