Magnetoresistance and Phase Diagram of Thin-Film UNi2Al3
arXiv:1101.1150 · doi:10.1143/JPSJS.80SA.SA015
Abstract
We study the dc resistivity of UNi2Al3 thin films as a function of temperature and magnetic field. We focus on the temperature range around the antiferromagnetic transition (TN \approx 4 K in zero applied field). From a clear signature of TN in the dc resistance along the crystallographic a-direction, we extract the shape of the magnetic phase diagram. Here we find quantitative differences in comparison to previous studies on bulk crystals.
