摘要:

原型重费米子系统[1-4]和高Tc氧化铜超导体[5]的最臭名昭著的非费米液体性质之一是随温度T线性演变的电阻率。在重费米子超导体CeCoIn 5中,这种线性行为是零温度不稳定性或量子临界点存在的第一个迹象之一。在这里,我们报告了一个独特的控制参数的T-线性散射CeCoIn 5,发现通过系统的化学取代的磁性和非磁性稀土,R,离子到Ce子晶格。我们发现,Ce 1-xRxCoIn 5中的非弹性散射的演化强烈依赖于R离子的f-电子构型,而另外两个关键性质-库珀对断裂和近藤晶格相干性-则不是。因此,CeCoIn 5中的T线性电阻率与Kondo晶格中的非相干散射中心的性质密切相关,这提供了对与量子临界性同义的异常散射率的深入了解[7]。

英文摘要:

One of the most notorious non-Fermi liquid properties of both archetypal heavy-fermion systems [1-4] and the high-Tc copper oxide superconductors [5] is an electrical resistivity that evolves linearly with temperature, T. In the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn5 [5], this linear behaviour was one of the first indications of the presence of a zero-temperature instability, or quantum critical point. Here, we report the observation of a unique control parameter of T-linear scattering in CeCoIn5, found through systematic chemical substitutions of both magnetic and non-magnetic rare-earth, R, ions into the Ce sub-lattice. We find that the evolution of inelastic scattering in Ce1-xRxCoIn5 is strongly dependent on the f-electron configuration of the R ion, whereas two other key properties -- Cooper-pair breaking and Kondo-lattice coherence -- are not. Thus, T-linear resistivity in CeCoIn5 is intimately related to the nature of incoherent scattering centers in the Kondo lattice, which provides insight into the anomalous scattering rate synonymous with quantum criticality [7].
