Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:6.23(Physics, Condensed Matter)We have succeeded to grow a single crystal of uranium ternary intermetallic compound UPdGa by the Ga self-flux method. The magnetic susceptibility showed a weak temperature dependence and small anisotropy,consistent with an itinerant character of 5 electrons. We observed a clear drop in the susceptibility and electrical resistivity below the Neel temperature = 31 K. The magnetic structure was studied by means of a neutron diffraction measurement. We observed an antiferromagnetic peak with the propagation vector =[0,0,1/2]. The uranium 5 moment of 0.33 parallel to the -axis was found to order ferromagnetically in the basal -plane and coupled antiferromagnetically along the -axis.

Magnetic structures of these compounds have been studied by neutron diffraction experiment. We summarize the results of the unusual variety of magnetic structure occurred in NpTGa and discuss in terms of electronic structural point of view.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:11.66(Physics, Condensed Matter)The low lying magnetic excitations of the unconventional heavy fermion superconductor PrOsSb were studied by inelastic neutron scattering on single crystalline sample. The crystal field excitation first evidenced at 0.7 meV on powder samples is found to have a minimum of energy at the zone boundary corresponding to the wavevector of antiferro-quadrupolar instability. The evolution of the magnetic excitation spectrum under magnetic field confirms the singlet ground state.

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:17(Physics, Condensed Matter)We have succeeded in growing a high-quality single crystal of UCuSi with the tetragonal structure by the Sn-flux method and measured the magnetic susceptibility and magnetization. UCuSi is confirmed to order antiferromagnetically below = 106 K, and follows a successive ferromagnetic ordering at = 100 K. The magnetic properties are highly anisotropic, reflecting the crystal structure. An easy-axis of magnetization is found to be the [001] direction (-axis), while the [100] direction (-axis) corresponds to the hard-axis in magnetization. The saturation moment is determined as 1.8/U.

It is considered that the origin of the magnetic resonant scattering intensity at Ga K-edge is the Ga-4 orbital polarization induced by the 5 orbital polarization at the neighboring U atom due to the hybridization.

Times Cited Count:2 Percentile:11.66(Physics, Condensed Matter)A new ternary uranium-based intermetallic compound UNiAl has been symthesized. It crystallizes in the unique flat orthorhombic structure. Uranium atoms occupy two crystallographic 4 and 8 sites where local chemical environments are quite similar. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility demonstrates peculiar magnetic anisotropy; along - and -axes obeys the Curie-Weiss law above 23 K, while along -axis is small and temperature independent. At 23 K, only shows a sharp cusp corresponding to the antiferromagnetic ordering, while remains paramagnetic behavior down to 2 K. These results and crystallographical considerations lead to a conclusion that only uranium atoms at the 8 site order antiferromagnetically at = 23 K, while uranium atoms at the site do not order down to 50 mK.

From the temperature dependence of the O-NMR spectrum, the occurrence of two inequivalent oxygen sites has been confirmed below .

Times Cited Count:3 Percentile:17(Physics, Condensed Matter)By using the density matrix renormalization group method, we investigate ground- and excited-state properties of the -orbital degenerate Hubbard model at quarter filling for two kinds of lattices, zigzag chain and ladder. In the zigzag chain, the system is effectively regarded as a decoupled double chain of the =1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model, and the spin gap is approximately zero, similar to the case of weakly coupled Heisenberg chains. On the other hand, in the ladder, the spin correlation on the rung remains robust and the spin gap exists.

In the paramagnetic state, hyperfine parameters such as NMR shift, electric field gradient and hyperfine coupling constant have been determined for the two crystallographically inequivalent Ga sites.

NpFeGa and NpCoGa are antiferromagnets with a Nel temperature of 116 K and 47 K, respectively. On the other hand, NpNiGa orders ferromagnetically below 30 K, but changes into another magnetic state with an antiferromagnetic character at 18 K.
