Journal ArticleDOI

Large Seebeck effect by charge-mobility engineering

TL;DR: A charge mobility that changes rapidly with temperature can result in a sizeable addition to the Seebeck coefficient, which can provide a novel route to the design of improved thermoelectric materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal and electronic transport in CeRu2Al10: Evidence for a metal-insulator transition

TL;DR: In this article, a first report of physical properties of the ternary intermetallic compound CeRu2Al10 is given, and the electrical resistivity below room temperature shows activated behaviour with a narrow gap of Δ ≃ 20 K before the onset of a sharp peak in ρ (T ) below T * = 27 K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Destruction of the Kondo effect in the cubic heavy-fermion compound Ce3Pd20Si6

TL;DR: A cubic heavy-fermion material is identified as exhibiting a field-induced quantum phase transition, and it is shown how the material can be used to explore one extreme of the dimensionality axis, leading to a materials-based global phase diagram.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unconventional superconductivity in Y5Rh6Sn18 probed by muon spin relaxation

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented magnetization, heat capacity, zero field and transverse field muon spin relaxation experiments on the recently discovered caged type superconductor Y5Rh6Sn18 (TC= 3.0
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-range magnetic order in CeRu2Al10 studied via muon spin relaxation and neutron diffraction

TL;DR: The low temperature state of the CeRu2Al10 has been studied by neutron powder diffraction and muon spin relaxation (muSR) by combining both techniques, and it has been shown that the transition occurring below T*~27K is unambiguously magnetic due to the ordering of the sublattice as discussed by the authors.
