Heavy Fermion CePd3: Coherent State Versus Kondo Holes<br />

— •Philipp Haas, Peter Weber, Konstantin Petukhov, Oleg<br />

Ushakov, Boris Gorshunov, and Martin Dressel — 1. Physikalisches<br />

Institut, Universität Stuttgart, 70550 Stuttgart<br />

The formation of the coherent heavy-fermion state in CePd3 is studied<br />

when doped with non-magnetic La. The La atoms act as Kondo-holes.<br />

Low-energy excitations are studied by dc, microwave, THz, and infrared<br />

measurements at temperatures from 5 K to 300 K. Pure CePd3 shows<br />

typical features for heavy-fermion systems in the conductivity spectra: A<br />

hybridization gap opens at around 1000 cm −1 ; below 50 cm −1 the optical<br />

conductivity increases. In addition, at microwave frequency a feature is<br />

detected which resembles an extremely small energy gap (≈ 2 cm −1 ).<br />

Calculated de Haas-van Alphen quantities of CeMIn5 (M =Co,<br />

Rh, and Ir) compounds — •Saad Elgazzar, Ingo Opahle,<br />

State and Materials Research, P.O. Box 270016, 01171 Dresden<br />

We report a critical analysis of the electronic structures and de Haasvan<br />

Alphen (dHvA) quantities of the heavy-fermion superconductors<br />

CeCoIn5, CeRhIn5, and CeIrIn5. The electronic structures are investigated<br />

ab initio on the basis of full-potential band-structure calculations,<br />

adopting both the scalar and fully relativistic formulations within the<br />

framework of the local spin-density approximation (LSDA). In contrast<br />

to another recent study, in which a pronounced change of the Fermi surface<br />

due to relativistic effects and therefore the importance of relativistic<br />

interactions for the superconductivity was claimed, we find only minor<br />

relativistic modifications of the band structure in our calculations. The<br />

ab initio calculated dHvA quantities are in good agreement with experimental<br />

data for CeCoIn5 and CeInIn5, when we adopt the delocalized<br />

LSDA description for the Ce 4f states. For CeRhIn5, however, a better<br />

agreement with experiment is obtained when the Ce 4f electron is<br />

treated as a localized core electron. The implications for an emerging picture<br />

of the localization behavior of the 4f electron in these materials are<br />

discussed. We furthermore compare our calculated dHvA quantities with<br />

other recent relativistic calculations and discuss the differences between<br />

them.<br />

We report on the transport properties of LaTiO3+δ and LaTiO3.5 films.<br />

The LaTiO3+δ samples show metallic transport and several samples exhibit<br />

a hysteretic drop of resistance during cooldown at ∼240K. The ferroelectric<br />

LaTiO3.5 samples, grown in capacitor structures, have nonlinear,<br />

diode-like and hysteretic V(I)-characteristics. Two charge-controlled<br />

transport regimes are found, which can be utilized for switching the devices<br />

between two voltage states.<br />

Die zwischenvalente Legierung YbAl2 hat bei tiefen Temperaturen eine<br />

Reihe interessanter Eigenschaften. So wurde bei Messungen oberhalb<br />

100 K festgestellt, dass die Magnetisierung nur schwach temperaturabhängig<br />

ist und das für zwischenvalente Verbindungen typische Verhalten<br />

zeigt [1]. Wir präsentieren Messungen der Magnetisierung, des Widerstandes<br />

und der spezifischen Wärme im Temperaturbereich zwischen<br />

1,5 und 300 K. Der elektrische Widerstand ist bei tiefen Temperaturen<br />

(T ≤ 20 K) proportional zu T 3 – ein auch bei anderen zwischenvalenten<br />

Verbindungen beobachtetes Verhalten. Die spezifische Wärme wird<br />

durch den Gitterbeitrag dominiert, weicht aber von der Debye-Funktion<br />

ab, was auf zusätzliche Anregungen hinweist. Die Magnetisierungsmessungen<br />

sind qualitativ konsistent mit älteren Messungen für T > 100 K<br />

und zeigen bei tieferen Temperaturen Curie-Verhalten.<br />

We report the synthesis and characterisation of a new ternary Europium<br />

pnictide EuZn2Sb2. Single crystals were grown by a solid state<br />

reaction of high-purity starting materials in carbon glass crucibles. The<br />

crystal structure was determined using powder x-ray diffraction. Single<br />

crystals were oriented using Laue x-ray diffraction. EuZn2Sb2 is isostructural<br />

with the hexagonal Yb compound YbZn2Sb2. The bulk properties<br />

were characterised in terms of measurements of the resistivity, magnetoresistance,<br />

Hall effect, specific heat and magnetisation. Pronounced<br />

features characteristic of antiferromagnetic order with TN = 13.3K are<br />

observed. For field parallel to the c-axis the antiferromagnetism is suppressed<br />

above 2.7T while it persists up to ∼ 4.7T for field in the basal<br />

plane. An analysis of the nature of the antiferromagnetic state as inferred<br />

from the bulk properties is presented.<br />

Orbital and spin exchange in LiNiO2 — •Roland Hayn 1 , Daré<br />

de Physique Theorique, Luminy Case 907, 13288 Marseille Cedex 9,<br />

France<br />

We derive an effective orbital and spin exchange Hamiltonian using a<br />

perturbative approach to study the compound LiNiO2. We show that the<br />

inclusion of the trigonal crystal field splitting at the oxygen sites leads to<br />

the appearance of antiferromagnetic exchange integrals in deviation from<br />

the Goodenough-Kanamori-Anderson rules for this 90 degree bond. That<br />

gives a microscopic foundation for the recently observed coexistence of<br />

ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic couplings in the orbitally frustrated<br />

state of LiNiO2.<br />

High energy photoemission study on the Verwey transition in<br />

Magnetite (Fe3O4) undergoes a first-order phase transition called the<br />

Verwey transition (VWT). Although known for a long time the VWT<br />

is currently a matter of intensive debate questioning fundamental issues<br />

such as the charge ordering of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ ions which is widely believed<br />

to be the driving mechanism of the VWT.<br />

We present a study of the VWT by valence band high energy photoemission.<br />

Compared to VUV PES this enhances the probing depth by<br />

at least a factor of 2 with surface effects greatly reduced. Nonetheless,<br />

we still observe subtle differences in the valence band spectra between<br />

differently prepared surfaces. While the spectra of sputtered, annealed,<br />

and post-oxidized (111) and (100) single crystal surfaces display a continuous<br />

temperature evolution through the Verwey temperature (TV ), a<br />

first order VWT is observed on surfaces obtained by fracturing a crystal<br />

at 40 K. The non-equilibrium atomic configuration of these surfaces is<br />

thus apparently rather bulk-like, whereas the annealed samples display<br />

strong surface relaxations. The spectra at T < TV of the fractured samples<br />

are identified as those of a correlated insulator with a gap of at least<br />

150 meV, which at TV closes into a pseudogap situation. The absence<br />

of clear quasiparticle signatures characterizes the T > TV phase as an<br />

incoherent metal, consistent with transport and optical data.<br />

applied magnetic field. The temperature variation of the charge<br />
