Heavy Fermion Superconductivity

Heavy-fermion compounds are ideally suited to study cooperative phenomena in highly correlated electron systems. We discuss local-moment magnetism and heavy-fermion band magnetism in the exemplary systems CeCu 2 Ge 2 and Ni-rich Ce(Cu 1− x Ni x )2 Ge 2, respectively. In addition, the coexistence of long-range antiferromagnetic order and heavy-fermion superconductivity in UM 2 Al 3 (M: Ni, Pd) will be addressed.

AbstractThe Kondo effect has been a topic of intense study because of its significant contribution to the development of theories and understanding of strongly correlated electron systems. In this work, we show that the Kondo effect is at work in La1−xPrxNiO3−δ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.6) thin films. At low temperatures, the local magnetic moments of the 3d eg electrons in Ni2+, which form because of oxygen vacancies, interact strongly with itinerant electrons, giving rise to an upturn in resistivity with x ≥ 0.2. Observation of negative magnetoresistance, described by the Khosla and Fisher model, further supports the Kondo picture. This case represents a rare example of the Kondo effect, where Ni2+ acts as an impurity in the background of Ni3+. We suggest that when Ni2+ does not participate in the regular lattice, it provides the local magnetic moments needed to scatter the conduction electrons in the Kondo effect. These results offer insights into emergent transport behaviors in metallic nickelates with mixed Ni3+ and Ni2+ ions, as well as structural disorder.
