AI总结:

本文通过热力学测量发现Ce基笼状化合物Ce$T_{2}$Cd$_{20}$的基态为$Γ_7$双重态,理论上证明其RKKY相互作用在极低温下必然消失,解释了该化合物在毫开尔文温区未出现长程有序的原因。

摘要:

我们报告了立方Ce基笼状化合物Ce$T_{2}$Cd$_{20}$($T$ = Ni, Pd)在外加磁场下热力学测量的结果。我们对热容数据的分析表明,$Γ_7$双重态是Ce$^{3+}$离子的基态多重态。因此,对于$Γ_7$双重态,理论上可以证明,由传导电子介导的局域Ce矩之间的Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY)相互作用,在温度远低于基态双重态与第一激发态$Γ_8$四重态的能级间距时必然消失。我们的发现为这些化合物为何在低至毫开尔文范围的温度下仍未观察到长程有序提供了见解。

英文摘要:

We report the results of thermodynamic measurements in external magnetic field of the cubic Ce-based cage compounds Ce$T_{2}$Cd$_{20}$ ($T$ = Ni,Pd). Our analysis of the heat-capacity data shows that the $Γ_7$ doublet is the ground state multiplet of the Ce$^{3+}$ ions. Consequently, for the $Γ_7$ doublet it can be theoretically shown that the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction between the localized Ce moments mediated by the conduction electrons, must vanish at temperatures much lower than the energy separating the ground state doublet from the first excited $Γ_8$ quartet. Our findings provide an insight as to why no long range order has been observed in these compounds down to temperatures in the millikelvin range.
