Abstract

The de Haas-van Alphen effect has been studied in the intermetallic compound Cu2Sb (tetragonal structure) by the modulation method in fields up to 100 kG. Numerous frequency branches have been obtained in the (100), (110), and (001) planes, and several cyclotron effective masses have been determined. The results show some compatibility with the nearly-free-electron model in the single- or double-zone scheme. The lattice parameters have been determined at room temperature and at liquid-helium temperatures.
