| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
X-ray spectroscopy measurements under multiple extreme conditions such as low temperature, high magnetic field, and high pressure were performed to understand quantum phase transition in strongly correlated 4f electron system from a viewpoint of valence fluctuation. The spectrum with high precision and high energy-resolution was actualized and the method of valence estimation with a precise system was established. Valence estimation was mainly performed for Ce and Yb compounds, and the valence values were superimposed on the phase diagram made by the measurement of physical properties such as electric resistivity and magnetic susceptibility so that the correlation between the quantum critical phenomenon and valence state can be investigated. The method developed by this research project can be basically adopted for all rare-earth compounds. Therefore, a new insight for the correlation between the physical properties and the valence state will be obtained in near future.
