Evidence for an extended critical region near the metamagnetic transition of UCoAl
Electrical resistivity and ac magnetic susceptibility studies of the 5f-metamagnet UCoAl reveal the presence of strong spin fluctuation effects for temperatures below 30 K and magnetic fields below the critical metamagnetic field μ0Hc≈1 T, where a non-Fermi liquid term ∼T3/2 is prominent in the elec...

Zusammenfassung: | Electrical resistivity and ac magnetic susceptibility studies of the 5f-metamagnet UCoAl reveal the presence of strong spin fluctuation effects for temperatures below 30 K and magnetic fields below the critical metamagnetic field μ0Hc≈1 T, where a non-Fermi liquid term ∼T3/2 is prominent in the electrical resistivity. A step-wise increase of the residual resistivity and an increasingly prominent Fermi liquid T2 term of the resistivity is observed as the field is increased though the metamagnetic transition. |
