Outline of Research at the Start

This project focus on investigating quantum critical behavior in the multipolar Kondo system PrTr2Al20 by tuning the magnetic field and uniaxial strain, This work will provide essential new knowledge for understanding orbital-induced quantum phenomena in strongly correlated electron systems.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements

Over the past two years, we comprehensively characterized the field-induced quantum criticality of the multipolar Kondo system PrV2Al20 using electrical transport and thermodynamic probes. We succeeded in detecting universal scaling in magnetoresistance, Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, and a drastic rise in the Hall coefficient on approaching the quantum critical regime. We further performed low-temperature and high-field specific heat and magnetization measurements, which yielded high-precision thermodynamic information on the non-Fermi liquid phase intrinsic to the multipolar Kondo effect. This study leads to profound insights into the non-Fermi-liquid behavior generated by the multipolar Kondo effect and the changes in Fermi surface properties near the multipolar quantum critical point.
