Heavy-Mass Behavior Of Ordered Perovskites Acu(3)Ru(4)O(12) (A = Na, Ca, La)
JOURNAL OF THE PHYSICAL SOCIETY OF JAPAN(2009)
摘要
We synthesized ACu(3)Ru(4)O(12) (A = Na, Na0.5Ca0.5 Ca, Ca0.5La0.5, La) and measured their DC magnetization, AC susceptibility, specific heat, and resistivity, in order to investigate the effects of the hetero-valent substitution. A broad peak in the DC magnetization around 200 K was observed only in CaCu3Ru4O12, suggesting the Kondo effect due to localized Cu2+ ions. However, the electronic specific heat coefficients gamma exhibit large values not only for CaCu3Ru4O12 but also for all the other samples. Moreover, the Wilson ratio and the Kadowaki-Woods ratio of our samples are all similar to the values of other heavy-fermion compounds. These results question the Kondo effect as the dominant origin of the mass enhancement, and rather indicate the importance of correlations among itinerant Ru electrons.
