Kondo behaviour in magnetic (Ce−La)Pd2Si2

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

Susceptibility, specific heat and resistivity studies on CePd2Si2 and its pseudoternary system CexLa1−xPd2Si2 are reported. Replacement of Ce by La leads to a near dilution like decrease of the Néel temperaturesT N (x): long range magnetic order in the ground state doublet exists in the wholex range explored (0.2≦x≦1). The present data indicate a concomitant Kondo effect, with Kondo temperaturesT K decreasing linearly from 9 to 3 K, competing with the magnetic interaction. A close relationship between the value of the specific heat jump atT N and the ratio between the two characteristic temperaturesT N andT K is demonstrated.
