被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the pressure dependence of the magnetoresistivity and Hall resistivity for an itinerant-electron metamagnet UCoAl. The first-order metamagnetic transition point varies as a function of hydrostatic pressure and terminates at the critical pressure 2.0 GPa. The electronic system, however, does not show criticality at this pressure but extends to higher pressures, unlike the usual quantum critical behavior.

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)Elastic responses at the metamagnetic transition in UTe are studied at high field. The elastic anomaly becomes the strongest at the critical-end-point. Similar behavior was also observed in another metamagnet UCoAl, suggesting a universal elastic response triggered by critical magnetic fluctuations.

Antiferromagnetism occurs at 11 K with an insulating ground state. Application of magnetic field induces a sudden resistance drop leading to a phase transition to metallic state. Energy band calculations reveal the appearance of a Fermi surface pocket with Te-5p character induced by the polarized Eu moments.

Ga
with the ordering temperature
= 26 K was investigated by resonant X-ray scattering and neutron diffraction on single crystals. This compound possesses a unique crystal structure in which uranium ions form honeycomb layers and then stacks along the c-axis with slight offset, which gives rise to a stacking disorder. The AF order can be described with the propagation vector of q = (1/6, 1/6, 0) in the hexagonal notation. The ordered magnetic moments orient perpendicular to the honeycomb layers, indicating a collinear spin structure consistent with Ising-like anisotropy. The magnetic reflections are found to be broadened along c
indicating that the stacking disorder results in anisotropic correlation lengths. The semiquantitative analysis of neutron diffraction intensity, combined with group theory considerations based on the crystallographic symmetry, suggests a zig-zag type magnetic structure for the AF ground state, in which the AF coupling runs perpendicular to the stacking offset, characterized as q = (1, 0, 0). The realization of the zig-zag magnetic structure implies the presence of frustrating intralayer exchange interactions involving both ferromagnetic (FM) first-neighbor and AF second and third-neighbor interactions in this compound.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) experiments using soft X rays to investigate the electronic structure of the heavy-fermion superconductor UPt. The overall band structure revealed by the present ARPES measurements is compared with density-functional calculations for UPt
and the non-
reference compound ThPt
. We showed that the calculation for ThPt
gives a better description of the experimental band structure, except for the
-derived heavy quasiparticle bands. This situation is reminiscent of Ce-based heavy-fermion systems, whose band structures are often very similar to those of non-
La-based compounds. The narrow heavy quasiparticle bands are located just below the Fermi level (
), and their band structure could not be resolved by the present energy resolution. We also showed that most of the U
spectral weight exists not as the coherent heavy-fermion bands but as incoherent components that distribute over a wide energy range, spanning from near
to approximately 2 eV. This result indicates that the heavy quasiparticle bands are enormously renormalized by the electron correlation effect. Additionally, we showed that the spectral intensity of the heavy-fermion bands is almost temperature independent, at least up to 100 K, where the magnetic susceptibility follows a Curie-Weiss behavior.

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We investigated the element-specific electronic states and magnetic properties of ferromagnetic superconductor UCoGe and Ru-substituted U(CoRu
)Ge using soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) experiments. YCoGe, a nonmagnetic compound without the 5
electrons, was also examined as a reference material. The shapes of the XMCD spectra of UCoGe at the U
and Ge
edges are indistinguishably similar to those of U(Co
Ru
)Ge. On the other hand, the XMCD spectral shape at the Co
edge is very peculiar and is changed by the existence of the U 5
electrons and the Ru substitution. From the sum rule analysis for the XMCD spectra, it was found that the magnetic moments of the U 5
and Co 3
electrons in UCoGe and U(Co
Ru
)Ge are aligned in the same direction under the present experimental conditions;
= 5.5 - 50 K and
= 0 - 10 T. Furthermore, even in the case of YCoGe, the Co 3
electrons have a large orbital magnetic moment, suggesting that the Co 3
electrons in these compounds are in a low symmetric electronic environment originally. Through the
- and
-dependence of the XMCD intensity, it was revealed that the magnetic properties at the Co site are not simply induced by the magnetism at the U site and that the Co 3
electrons play an important role in the stability of ferromagnetism.
