de Haas-van Alphen oscillation was successfully observed in an unconventional superconductor UTe using high-quality single crystals. From this observation, Fermi surfaces of this compound were determined to be cylinders elongated along the c-direction, in consistent with theoretical expectation. However, the extremely large cyclotron effective masses ranging 32 to 57 m, in consistent with the electronic specific heat, far exceed calculated values.

Ferromagnetic fluctuation relevant to the pressure-induced superconductivity in UGe is investigated by means of NMR spectroscopy. Longitudinal magnetic fluctuations were observed in the spin-echo decay rate near the ferromagnetic critical point where superconductivity takes place. This result strongly suggests that superconductivity in ferromagnets is universally mediated by anisotropic magnetic fluctuations.

Single crystal samples of EuCu and EuAu have been successfully prepared. Using those samples, magnetic and electronic anisotropy has been clarified. Magnetic moment in the ferromagnetic state points to the hexagonal -axis for both compounds. Electronic anisotropy was found in both electrical resistivity and Fermi surface topology. These anisotropic characteristics are accounted for by the unique hexagonal structure.

EuPtSi with the cubic chiral structure exhibits a skyrmion phase under magnetic field. We succeeded in growing high-quality single crystals by the Bridgman method. Fermi surface splitting reflecting the noncentrosymmetric structure was successfully observed experimentally.

We report Si and Ru NMR measurements on high-quality, single-crystal URuSi samples with a residual resistivity ratio RRR70. Our results show that the Si and Ru sites exhibit 4-fold electronic symmetry around the -axis in the hidden-order state. A previously observed 2-fold contribution of Si NMR linewidth is concluded to be due to extrinsic magnetic centers. Since the U and Si sites are aligned along the -axis, we conclude further that the electronic state shows 4-fold symmetry around the U site below the hidden-order transition. From this observed local symmetry, possible space groups for the hidden-order state are or , based on group theoretical considerations. Since the order vector is considered to be , the hidden-order state is then found to be with rank 5 odd-parity, i.e. electric dotriacontapolar order.

Superconducting characteristics and Fermi surfaces of ZrCo are experimentally studied on a single crystal sample grown by Bridgman technique. Thermodynamic quantities in the superconducting state such as specific heat and magnetization show deviation from a single-gap the BCS model and can be attributed on the band structure with the dominant contribution of Zr-4 and Co-3 components.

A series of metallic compounds with the tetragonal symmetry are investigated to reveal the relationship between the structural dimensionality and the electronic structure. By combining the de Haas-van Alphen experiments and band structure calculations, a flat one-dimensional Fermi surface is revealed in VGa which is characterized by a chain like arrangement of atoms. On the other hand, CoGa with the nearly cubic symmetry has pyramidal Fermi surfaces with flat {111} planes, similar to NiGa with the ideal cubic structure.

Characteristics of heavy fermion and unconventional superconductivity in rare-earth and actinide compounds are clarified by the de Haas-van Alphen experiments. The effect of pressure on the electronic states of CeRhIn, CeIrSi and YbIrZn is studied in magnetic fields. An electronic instability occurs under pressure in these compounds.

Fermi surface properties in rare earth and actinide compounds such as CeSn, USi, NpGe and PuIn are clarified by the de Haas-van Alphen experiments on the bases of the energy band calculations. The pressure-induced electronic instability including unconventional superconductivity observed in CeRhIn is also discussed.
