Cubic symmetry of U 3 X 4 compounds (where X = P, As and Sb) is broken when they order ferromagnetically (at T C =138, 198 and 146 K, respectively). Macroscopic manifestations of the symmetry breaking are giant magnetostriction (found in both U 3 P 4 and U 3 As 4 , and corresponding to trigonal distortion of the crystal lattice), a huge anisotropic magnetoresistance and anisotropy of thermoelectric power observed in U 3 P 4 and U 3 As 4 . Here even larger anisotropic effects are presented for U 3 Sb 4 . Also for U 3 (P,As) 4 solid solution (ferromagnet with T C =181 K) highly anisotropic magnetoresistivity was found, intermediate between those of U 3 P 4 and U 3 As 4 . The Mott-Campbell-Fert model of anisotropic magnetoresistance provides explanation for observed properties when extended with a magnetostriction-induced mechanism modifying the density of states at Fermi level and the band polarization.
