High-field magnetization and magnetic phase transition in CeOs2Al10

We have studied the magnetization of CeOs2Al10 in high magnetic fields up to 55 T for H // a and constructed the magnetic phase diagram for H // a. The magnetization curve shows a concave H dependence below T_max \sim40 K which is higher than the transition temperature T_0 \sim29 K. The magnetic susceptibility along the a-axis shows a smooth and continuous decrease down to \sim20 K below T_max \sim40 K without showing an anomaly at T_0. From these two results, a Kondo singlet is formed below T_max and coexists with the antiferro magnetic order below T_0. We also propose that the larger suppression of the spin degrees of freedom along the a-axis than along the c-axis below T_max is associated with the origin of the antiferro magnetic component.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, to appear in Phys.

Magnetic and transport properties of CeT2Al10(T= Fe, Ru, Os) under pressure

The results of electrical resistivity ρ measurements for CeT2Al10 (T = Fe, Ru, Os) under pressure are reported. The abrupt increase was observed at T0 ~ 27 K for CeRu2Al10 and 29 K for CeOs2Al10 at ambient pressure. By applying pressure, T0 for CeRu2Al10 and CeOs2Al10 suddenly disappeared at 4 GPa and 2 GPa, respectively. Although the ground state of CeRu2Al10 is metal at ambient pressure, ρ at low temperatures increased and the ground state became semiconductor at 2 GPa. The increase in ρ suppressed above 3 GPa and the ground state became metal above 5 GPa. Magnetic contribution to CeRu2Al10 above 4 GPa shows maximum, which seems to be attributed to Kondo coherence. These systematical change in ρ(T) was also observed in CeFe2Al10 and CeOs2Al10. From the pressure dependence of the temperature of the maximum, we suggests that CeFe2Al10 and CeOs2Al10 is corresponding to 3.2 GPa and 1.3 GPa of CeRu2Al10
