| Research Abstract |
Continuing the experiments done last year, we have performed the magnetic resonance and cyclotron resonance on some rare-earth compounds using vector network analyzer system developed recently at ultra low temperatures and high magnetic fields. A microwave cavity has been used for high sensitivity. The frequency range is 40〜110 GHz and the temperature range is 0.5〜300 K. The obtained results are as follows :
1) GdAs : The magnetic structure of this compound with easy (111) plane, which had been unknown so far, has been determined by ESR. The cyclotron resonance has been observed at 0.5 K and the effective mass of the carrier is detemined as 0.48 m0. This result suggests that the fermi surface is spherical and the effective mass is two times larger than that obtained by quantum oscillation.
2) LaSb : The cyclotron resonance has been observed below 4.2 K. From the anisotropic behavior of the resonance position, this resonance occurs due to carriers with a ellipsoidal fermi surface. The effective mass obtained is 0.26 m0 along the <100> direction and is two times larger than that obtained by quantum oscillation.
The difference between masses obtained by cyclotron resonance and quantum oscillaation has been observed for low dimensional organic conductors. However the former is larger than the latter and consistent with the theoretical prediction, which is against our result. In this study, we have first observed the cyclotron resonance on strongly correlated materials, which has never reported, and determined the effective mass directly. The theory to explain our result has not been done yet.
