Ytterbium divalency and lattice disorder in near-zero thermal expansion YbGaGe
C. H. Booth, A. D. Christianson, J. M. Lawrence +3
While near-zero thermal expansion (NZTE) in YbGaGe is sensitive to stoichiometry and defect concentration, the NZTE mechanism remains elusive. We present x-ray absorption spectra t…
Tricritical Phenomena at the Cerium Transition
J. C. Lashley, A. C. Lawson, J. C. Cooley +10
The isostructural transition in the CeLaTh system is measured as a function of La alloying using specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, resistivity,…
Pinning frequencies of the collective modes in -uranium
B. Mihaila, C. P. Opeil, F. R. Drymiotis +15
Uranium is the only known element that features a charge-density wave (CDW) and superconductivity. We report a comparison of the specific heat of single-crystal and polycrystalline…
Fermi Surface as a Driver for the Shape-Memory Effect in AuZn
R. D. McDonald, J. C. Lashley, J. Singleton +7
Martensites are materials that undergo diffusionless, solid-state transitions. The martensitic transition yields properties that depend on the history of the material and may allow…
Tunable Thermal Expansion Behavior in the Intermetallic YbGaGe
F. R. Drymiotis, Y. Lee, G. Lawes +6
We investigate the effects of carbon and boron doping on the thermal expansion in the hexagonal (P63/mmc) intermetallic YbGaGe. X-ray powder diffraction was used to measure the lat…
Suppression of the structural phase transition in by large magnetic fields
F. Drymiotis, J. Singleton, N. Harrison +7
The transition in CeLaTh is measured as a function of applied magnetic field using both resistivity and magnetization. The transition temperatu…
