Anisotropic electronic and magnetic properties of the quasi-two-dimensional heavy-fermion antiferromagnetCeRhIn5

Abstract: We have used high pulsed magnetic fields to 50 T to observe de Haas-van Alphen oscillations in the tetragonal antiferromagnet CeRhIn 5 , which has an enhanced value of the electronic specific heat coefficient ␥տ420 mJ/mol K 2 . For TϽT N , the specific heat data at zero applied magnetic field are consistent with the existence of an anisotropic spin-density wave opening a gap in the Fermi surface. The low-temperature magnetization reveals a magnetic phase transition that appears to be first order in nature. Qua… Show more

“…Therefore, the enhancement of T c in layered CeMIn 5 over CeIn 3 has been suggested to be due to their quasi-2D structure [4,14,22]. Our results suggest that the small window for the spin fluctuations regime in CeIn 3 may also be partly responsible for its lower T c .…”

“…Band structure calculations and de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements indicate that the 115 materials have a complicated quasi-2D Fermi surface (FS) composed of multiple electron and hole orbits. 22,23,24,25,26 When considering the novel properties of the 115 compounds it is critical to differentiate between phenomena that are controlled by prosaic single-electron physics and those determined by correlated electron interactions.…”

“…Because of the high quality of single crystals that result from flux growth-based crystal growth, substantial progress has been made in quantum oscillation studies of CeMIn 5 [22][23][24][25][26]. From a broad perspective, reasonable agreement is found between LDA band structure calculations and de Haas-van Alphen oscillation measurements.…”

“…Another normal-state feature of CeMIn 5 revealed by high-field measurements is the ubiquitous presence of metamagnetic transitions. CeRhIn 5 [22,39], CeIrIn 5 [37] and CeCoIn 5 [33] all display field-induced transitions in heat capacity or magnetization.…”
