Correlation between the phase diagram and the crystal-field wave functions of CeRh(1-x)Ir(x)In5

Abstract

The 4f crystal-electric field ground state wave functions of CeRh(1-x)Ir(x)In5 have been determined by linear polarization dependent soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at T = 8 K. We demonstrate that these ground state wave functions correlate with the phase diagram of the substitution series, which covers long-range antiferromagnetic order, unconventional superconductivity, and coexistence of these two states. We discuss how certain wave functions could affect magnetic order and anisotropic hybridization, facilitating the formation of a superconducting ground state at low temperatures.
