Localized f electrons in CexLa1-xRhIn5: dHvA Measurements
Measurements of the de Haas-van Alphen effect in CexLa1-xRhIn5 reveal that
the Ce 4f electrons remain localized for all x, with the mass enhancement and
progressive loss of one spin from the de Haas-van Alphen signal resulting from
spin fluctuation effects. This behavior may be typical of antiferromagnetic
heavy fermion compounds, inspite of the fact that the 4f electron localization
in CeRhIn5 is driven, in part, by a spin-density wave instability.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, submitted to PR
