Research Abstract |
To understand the transition of 4f electrons of heavy-Fermion Ce compounds from the itinerant to the localized natures, we have performed soft X-ray spectroscopy experiments for the study of electronic structure variation near the boundary of magnetic ordering, by using the synchrotron radiation facility SPring-8. The soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) experiments for the CeRu2(Si,Ge)2 system have revealed the tendency of variation in the Ce 4f electronic states on going from the paramagnetic states to the magnetically ordered states. The XMCD experiments for the (Ce,Gd)Ni system have discovered anomalous magnetic behaviors of Ce 4f electrons by element specific observations.
