重新审视URu2Si2中的电子向列性

Electronic nematicity in URu2Si2 revisited

Liran Wang, Mingquan He, Frederic Hardy, Dai Aoki, Kristin Willa, Jacques Flouquet, Christoph Meingast

摘要:

URu 2Si 2中的隐序态(HO)的性质仍然是重费米子物理中未解决的主要问题之一。最近,转矩磁力仪,X射线衍射和弹性电阻率数据表明,HO相变在THO = 17.5 K是由电子的双折射效应。在这里,我们寻找这个所谓的结构不稳定的热力学签名,使用各向异性的热膨胀,杨氏模量,弹性电阻率和比热测量。与已发表的结果相反,我们没有发现任何数据中存在旋转对称性破缺的证据。有趣的是,我们的弹性电阻率测量,这是完全符合已发表的结果,表现出居里-外斯发散,但我们属性的体积,而不是一个破胶效果。最后,在我们的热容数据中观察到热涨落的明确证据,从中我们估计了HO相关长度。

英文摘要:

The nature of the hidden-order (HO) state in URu2Si2 remains one of the major unsolved issues in heavy-fermion physics. Recently, torque magnetometry, x-ray diffraction and elastoresistivity data have suggested that the HO phase transition at THO = 17.5 K is driven by electronic nematic effects. Here, we search for thermodynamic signatures of this purported structural instability using anisotropic thermal-expansion, Youngś modulus, elastoresistivity and specific-heat measurements. In contrast to the published results, we find no evidence of a rotational symmetry-breaking in any of our data. Interestingly, our elastoresistivity measurements, which are in full agreement with published results, exhibit a Curie-Weiss divergence, which we however attribute to a volume and not to a symmetry-breaking effect. Finally, clear evidence for thermal fluctuations is observed in our heat-capacity data, from which we estimate the HO correlation length.
