Kondo behaviour in an extremely low carrier concentration system:CeP

Y.S.Kwon, Y.Haga, O.Nakamura, T.Suzuki, T.Kasuya

Electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and specific heat under a magnetic field were measured in single crystalline CeP. The exerpiments show a Kondo behaviour of the system caused by a Γ8 exited state at high temperatures, and a large mass enhancement caused by a Γ7 ground state at low temperatures. An interesting magnetic phase diagram was also obtained.
