摘要:

填充方钴矿重费米子(HF)化合物主机丰富的基态取决于f电子配置。CeOs_4Sb_(12)(COS)和PrOs_4Sb_(12)(POS)分别具有Ce_4f_1和Pr_4f_2组态,表现出明显的近藤绝缘和HF超导性质。我们揭示了潜在的微观起源的角度分辨光电子能谱研究。它们的eV标度能带结构匹配良好,代表了ROs_4Sb_(12)(R =稀土)体系中导电电子的共同特征。然而,f电子与其中的传导电子的相互作用不同。在COS中观察到了导电电子与f电子之间的强杂化,杂化带隙依赖于能带,直接揭示了近藤绝缘态的发展。虽然POS的基态是单线态,但由于近藤散射与热激发的三重态晶体电场(CEF)状态,存在有限但不相干的杂化。我们的研究结果有助于理解COS和POS中有趣的性质,并提供了一个清晰的演示HF系统与4f1和4f2配置的微观差异。

英文摘要:

Filled-skutterudite heavy fermion (HF) compounds host rich ground states depending on the f electron configurations. CeOs4Sb12 (COS) with Ce 4f1, and PrOs4Sb12 (POS) with Pr 4f2 configurations show distinct properties of Kondo insulating and HF superconductivity, respectivity. We unveiled the underlying microscopic origin by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy studies. Their eV-scale band structure matches well, representing the common characters of conduction electrons in ROs4Sb12 systems (R = rare earth). However, f electrons interact differently with conduction electrons in them. Strong hybridization between conduction electrons and f electrons is observed in COS with band dependent hybridization gaps, and the development of Kondo insulating state is directly revealed. Although the ground state of POS is a singlet, finite but incoherent hybridization exists due to Kondo scattering with the thermally excited triplet crystalline electric field (CEF) state. Our results help to understand the intriguing properties in COS and POS, and provide a clean demonstration of the microscopic differences in HF systems with 4f1 and 4f2 configurations.
