Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:57.56(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The X-ray absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra at the Yb L edge were measured in the mixed-valent heavy fermion compound YbAgCu at high magnetic fields and low temperatures. The magnetic-field-temperature (H-T) phase boundary determined by the valence state is in very good agreement with that determined by the magnetization. It is clearly found that the metamagnetism of this compound is due to the field induced valence transition. A distinctive positive peak of the XMCD spectra appears in the vicinity of the white line of the absorption due to Yb state, while no feature is observed in the XMCD spectra corresponding to the Yb state. A small negative XMCD peak was observed at a lower energy and was attributed to the quadrupole trasition from theoretical calcuration, which explains its peculicar magnetic field dependence.

Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:57.56(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The valence change of Yb ion in YbAgCu was measured by means of X-ray absorption spectroscopy under high magnetic fields up to 35T. The valence state of Yb in YbAgCu at 4.8K significantly increases at the metamagnetic transition. The saturation value of at 55T is evaluated as 2.97 using the relation at 35T. This value is in good agreement with for the related compound YbInCu at high temperatures and the Yb valence in the localized high-field phase. We conclude that the metamagnetic transition in YbAgCu arises from the valence transition, as theoretically predicted.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:79.33(Physics, Condensed Matter)We have investigated the effect of hydrogenation on La and electronic states in metallic LaH by X-ray absorption near edge structure at the La -edges. As the hydrogen content increases from 0 to 2.6, white-line intensity at the La -edges shows a remarkable increase in the range of 2.0. This is interpreted as the increase in La hole induced by interstitial H atoms on the octahedral sites. On the other hand, the shoulder structure at the La -edge disappears in the process of = 0.0 2.0, indicating that the - hybridization is weakened by H atoms on the tetrahedral sites. This study demonstrates that H atoms on the two interstitial H sites provide different contribution to the modification of the electronic states.
