dc.description.abstract | There has been increasing interest in compounds of the RM2Al20-type (R = lanthanide, M = transition metal) in recent years due to the unique physical and magnetic properties many have been shown to display at low temperatures. Recent work carried out on PrV2Al20 and PrTi2Al20 has revealed a number of interesting phenomena, including a quadrupolar Kondo effect [1, 2] and superconductivity [3, 4] brought about by the cubic symmetry of the Pr3+ site inducing a non-magnetic ground state in the ion. As a hole analogue of the PrV2Al20 compound, TmV2Al20 has been investigated to see whether it too displays such phenomena at low temperatures. Crystal field calculations based on specific heat and magnetisation have been carried out previously [5] with parameters W = 0.5 K and x = -0.6 determined based on the Lea, Leask and Wolf formalism [6]. These results have been further refined to W = 0.42(1) K and x = -0.63(1) using inelastic neutron scattering data obtained from the PELICAN time-of-flight spectrometer located at the OPAL reactor, Lucas Heights. | en_AU |
