Resistivity minima in the disordered cluster glass intermetallic compound Dy₅Pd₂: influence of quantum interference effects

Abstract

A resistance minimum in the temperature dependence of Dy5Pd2 has been interpreted in terms of contributions from magnetic and phonon scattering, electron–electron interactions and weak localization.

High entropy alloy CrFeNiCoCu sputter deposited films: Structure, electrical properties, and oxidation

“…For the system at hand this shift is very small compared to ρi. The term ρw(T) in equation ( 1) has the form 59 This is the author's peer reviewed, accepted manuscript. However, the online version of record will be different from this version once it has been copyedited and typeset.…”

Anomalous magnetoresistance and magneto-thermal properties of the half-Heuslers, RPdSi (R = Y, Gd–Er)

“…Moreover, the recent findings of extremely large transverse positive MR and longitudinal negative MR in several non-magnetic metals and semimetals have led to the discovery of new mechanisms related to their non-trivial band structure [22][23][24][25]. Some of the mechanisms for positive MR include electron-hole compensation [10,26], mobility fluctuation [23], and removal of the topological protection against backscattering [27], while for negative MR include chiral anomaly [9], [28], and weak localization [29]. Many of the magnetic semimetals such as GdSb [30,31], NdSb [32,33] HoBi [34], GdPtBi [35], and NdPtBi [36] also exhibit extremely large positive transverse MR and negative longitudinal MR even in the magnetically ordered state similar to their non-magnetic counterparts.…”

Switching on a Spin Glass: Flux Growth, Structure, and Magnetism of La11Mn13–x–yNixAlySn4−δ Intermetallics

“…Intermetallic compounds containing either transition metals or rare-earth metals (or both) exhibit a variety of complex magnetic characteristics . The networks of transition metals and magnetic anisotropy of the rare-earth ions in Nd 2 Fe 14 B and SmCo 5 yield hard ferromagnetic behavior, making these compounds very useful as components in hard drives and electric motors. , The interplay between the magnetism of europium and surrounding transition-metal layers in EuCo 2 Pn 2 (Pn = P, As)which can exhibit various europium oxidation states and moments on transition metal sites, depending on temperature and pressurehas been extensively studied. , Intermetallics containing rare-earth and 3d transition metals exhibit a plethora of interesting and exotic ground states, including heavy Fermion behavior, superconductivity, and Kondo effect. − In addition to long-range magnetic ordering, many multinary intermetallics exhibit a variety of short-range or disordered magnetic interactions, such as formation of spin clusters or spin-glass behavior, as seen in R 117 M 52+ x X 112+ y (R = rare-earth metal, M = Fe, Co, and Cr, and X = Ge, Sn), Dy 5 Pd 2 , and La 21 Fe 8 Sn 7 C 12 . − …”
