Behavior of magnetic impurities in gapless Fermi systems

arXiv:cond-mat/9605025 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.54.11936

Abstract

In a number of systems, including certain semiconductors and unconventional superconductors, the effective density of states varies near the Fermi energy like . The behavior of dilute magnetic impurities in such systems is studied using a non-perturbative renormalization-group approach. Close to particle-hole symmetry, the Kondo effect is suppressed for the cases of greatest relevance ( and ). Away from this symmetry, any quenching of the impurity moment is accompanied by a low-temperature decrease in the impurity resistivity, rather than the increase found in metals.
