| Research Abstract |
The pyrochlore ruthenates Pb2-xLnxRu2O7- (Ln = Y, Nd) have been successfully synthesized by the solid-state reaction. The solid-solution compounds of Pb2-xLnxRu2O7- (Ln = Y, Nd) undergo a crossover from metallic (x = 0) to insulating (x = 2) with increasing x. Owing to a localized magnetic moment on Ru site, these compounds with x > 0.2 also indicate the spin-glass like behaviors at low temperature (T < TSG). As a result of electric resistivity measurements, the samples with 0.4 ? χ ? 0.8 show the metal-insulator transition. In the metallic region, values of electric resistivity obey T2 dependencies which indicate the strongly correlated electron behaviors in this system.
