Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Infrared studies at high pressures were performed on CeCoIn5, CeRhIn5, YbNi3Ga9, YbAl2, YbCu2Ge2. The obtained optical conductivity spectra showed a characteristic mid-infrared peak. The peak showed opposite pressure-induced shifts between Ce and Yb compounds. On the other hand, the peak width increased with pressure for both Ce and Yb compounds. Namely, the electronic structures of Ce and Yb compounds implied by their optical conductivity showed both opposite and same responses against applied pressure. More detailed analysis based on electron-hole symmetry is under way.
