Magnetic Phase Diagram And Crystalline Electric Field Of Ndru2al10 Single Crystal
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON STRONGLY CORRELATED ELECTRON SYSTEMS (SCES 2011)(2012)
摘要
We measured specific heat of NdRu2Al10 single crystal under magnetic field along a-axis in order to investigate basic physical properties of this compound. We found three anomalies at T-1 similar to 2.4 K, T-2 similar to 1.2 K and T-3 similar to 0.9 K in the temperature dependence of specific heat. These anomalies are attributed to antiferromagnetic order. In addition, we observed a Schottky-type anomaly, which reflects splitting of crystalline electric field (CEF). The entropy reaches Rln2 just above T-1 and almost reaches Rln10 at room temperature. These results indicate that these three phase transitions occur in a doublet ground state and that all CEF levels of J = 9/2 are below 300K. The results of specific heat are consistent with the CEF level scheme proposed by magnetization measurement.
