We have observed an unexpected enhancement of the lower critical field H(c1)(T) and the critical current I(c)(T) deep in the superconducting state below T approximately 0.6 K (T/T(c) approximately 0.3) in the filled skutterudite heavy fermion superconductor PrOs(4)Sb(12). From a comparison of the behavior of H(c1)(T) with that of the heavy fermion superconductors U(1-x)Th(x)Be(13) and UPt(3), we speculate that the enhancement of H(c1)(T) and I(c)(T) in PrOs(4)Sb(12) reflects a transition into another superconducting phase that occurs below T/T(c) approximately 0.3. An examination of the literature reveals unexplained anomalies in other physical properties of PrOs(4)Sb(12) near T/T(c) approximately 0.3 that correlate with the features we have observed in H(c1)(T) and I(c)(T). 相似文献

We report measurements of the magnetic penetration depth lambda in single crystals of PrOs4Sb12 down to 0.1 K, with the ac field applied along the a, b, and c directions. In all three field orientations, lambda approximately T2 and superfluid density rho(s) approximately T2 for T<0.3T(c). Data are best fit by the 3He A-phase-like gap with multidomains, each having two point nodes along a cube axis, and parameter Delta(0)(0)/k(B)T(c)=2.6, suggesting that PrOs4Sb12 is a strong-coupling superconductor with two point nodes on the Fermi surface. We also confirm the double transitions at 1.75 and 1.85 K seen in other measurements. 相似文献

We report inelastic neutron scattering experiments performed to investigate the low energy magnetic excitations on single crystals of the heavy-fermion superconductor PrOs(4)Sb(12). The observed excitation clearly softens at a wave vector Q=(1,0,0), which is the same as the modulation vector of the field-induced antiferro-quadrupolar ordering, and its intensity at Q=(1,0,0) is smaller than that around the zone center. This result directly evidences that this excitonic behavior is derived mainly from nonmagnetic quadrupolar interactions. Furthermore, the narrowing of the linewidths of the excitations below the superconducting transition temperature indicates the close connection between the superconductivity and the excitons. 相似文献

Transverse-field muon-spin rotation measurements in the vortex-lattice of the heavy-fermion (HF) superconductor PrOs4Sb12 yield a temperature dependence of the magnetic penetration depth lambda indicative of an isotropic or nearly isotropic energy gap. This is not seen to date in any other HF superconductor and is a signature of isotropic pairing symmetry, possibly related to a novel nonmagnetic "quadrupolar Kondo" HF mechanism in PrOs4Sb12. The T=0 relaxation rate sigma(s)(0)=0.91(1) micros(-1) yields an estimated magnetic penetration depth lambda(0)=3440(20) A, which is considerably shorter than in other HF superconductors. 相似文献

The superconducting state of the heavy fermion PrOs4Sb12 is studied by heat transport measurements on a highly homogeneous single crystal exhibiting only one transition peak in the specific heat. The field and temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity confirm multiband superconductivity and point to fully open gaps on the whole Fermi surface. 相似文献

The superconducting gap structure of recently discovered heavy fermion superconductor PrOs4Sb12 was investigated by using thermal transport measurements in magnetic field rotated relative to the crystal axes. We demonstrate that a novel change in the symmetry of the superconducting gap function occurs deep inside the superconducting state, giving a clear indication of the presence of two distinct superconducting phases with twofold and fourfold symmetries. We infer that the gap functions in both phases have a point node singularity, in contrast to the familiar line node singularity observed in almost all unconventional superconductors. 相似文献

The magnetic phase diagram of PrOs4Sb12 has been investigated by specific heat measurements between 8 and 32 T. A new Schottky anomaly, due to excitations between two lowest crystalline-electric-field (CEF) singlets, has been found for both H parallel (100) and H parallel (110) above the field where the field-induced ordered phase (FIOP) is suppressed. The constructed H-T phase diagram shows weak magnetic anisotropy and implies a crossing of the two CEF levels at about 8-9 T for both field directions. These results provide an unambiguous evidence for the Gamma(1) singlet being the CEF ground state and suggest the level crossing (involving lowest CEF levels) as the driving mechanism of FIOP. 相似文献

The tunnelling conductance spectra of
ferromagnet/PrOs4Sb12 junctions are theoretically
investigated by using the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk theory. Three
pairs of possible candidate for the pairing symmetry of
superconducting energy gap of the recently discovered
heavy-fermion unconventional superconductor PrOs4Sb12 are
chosen for calculation. We have studied the spin-polarization
effect on the conductance spectra, with respect to different
strength of ferromagnetism of the ferromagnet and different
strength of the interface barrier. Moreover, we have discussed the
influence of nodal structures of the superconducting energy gap on
the conductance spectra. Different features of the tunnelling
conductance spectra were got, which may serve as useful
theoretical comparisons for future experiments. 相似文献

The "metallic" characteristics of high density holes in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures are attributed to inelastic scattering between the two split heavy hole bands. Landau fan diagrams and weak field magnetoresistance are employed to measure the interband scattering rate. The inelastic rate is found to depend on temperature with an activation energy similar to that characterizing the longitudinal resistance. It is argued that acoustic plasmon mediated Coulomb scattering might be responsible for the Arrhenius dependence on temperature. The absence of standard Coulomb scattering characterized by a power-law dependence upon temperature is pointed out. 相似文献

The Coulomb effect in high energy antiproton-nucleus elastic and inelastic
scattering from 12C and
16O is studied in the framework of Glauber multiple
scattering theory for five kinetic energies ranged from 0.23 to 1.83 GeV. A microscopic shell-model nuclear wave functions, Woods-Saxon single-particle wave functions, and experimental
pN amplitudes are used in the calculations. The results show that
the Coulomb effect is of paramount importance for filling up the dips of differential cross sections. We claim that the present result for inelastic scattering of
antiproton-12C is sufficiently reliable to be a guide for measurements in the very
near future. We also believe that antiproton nucleus elastic and inelastic scattering
may produce new information on both the nuclear structure and the antinucleon-nucleon interaction, in particular the
p-neutron interaction. 相似文献

Mott gap excitations in the optimally doped high-T(c) superconductor YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-delta) (T(c)=93 K) have been studied by the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering method. Anisotropic spectra in the ab plane are observed in a twin-free crystal. The excitation from the one-dimensional CuO chain is enhanced at 2 eV near the zone boundary of the b* direction, while the excitation from the CuO2 plane is broad at 1.5-4 eV and almost independent of the momentum transfer. Theoretical calculations based on the one-dimensional and two-dimensional Hubbard model reproduces the observed spectra when different values of the on-site Coulomb energy are assumed. The Mott gap of the CuO chain site is found to be much smaller than that of the CuO2 plane site. 相似文献

We measured the strength of the 0(+)(gs)-->2(+)(1) excitations in the radioactive mirror nuclei 32Ar and 32Si using the techniques of intermediate-energy Coulomb excitation for 32Ar and inelastic proton scattering in inverse kinematics for 32Si. The 32Ar measurement, taken together with previously existing Coulomb excitation data for 32Si, yields the isoscalar and isovector multipole matrix elements for the 0(+)(1)-->2(+)(1) transition between T = 2 states in the A = 32 system. The proton scattering measurement for 32Si, when combined with the Coulomb excitation data for this nucleus, yields a ratio of neutron and proton matrix elements, M(n)/M(p), for 32Si. 相似文献

We examine elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons by ions in intense laser light. A method of numerical investigation
of the scattering characteristics based on regularizing the Coulomb singularity is proposed. We show that over a broad range
of parameter values the transport scattering cross section is weakly dependent on the intensity of the high-frequency field.
We detect a significant modification of the dependence of the effective inelastic scattering cross section. We also show that
the energy exchange with the field is determined by a fairly small group of electrons, called the representative electrons.
Finally, we propose a qualitative model that explains our results by the fact that the leading contribution is provided by
inelastic collisions of electrons with relatively small impact parameters traversing the region important for the interaction
at large angles.

An optical potential component is constructed to represent the effect of a strongly coupled inelastic excitation upon elastic scattering. In the particular case of quadrupole Coulomb excitation a long range imaginary potential component is derived in closed form. The effects of long range absorption upon the elastic scattering are considered in a general way by inserting this potential into a weak absorption model and deriving an elastic scattering cross section in closed form. Below the Coulomb barrier the formula takes a simple form which may be related to the semiclassical theory of Coulomb excitation. The potential component arising from nuclear excitation of an inelastic state may be evaluated numerically on a computer. Two examples computed (50 MeV α-scattering on 154Sm and 60 MeV 16O scattering on 40Ca) exhibit strong l-dependence in the potential component. 相似文献

The Born approximation, one photon exchange, used for DIS (deep inelastic scattering) is subject to virtual radiative corrections
which are related to the long-range Coulomb forces. They may be sizeable for heavy nuclei since Zα is not a small parameter. So far, these corrections are known only for two processes, elastic scattering and bremsstrahlung
on the Coulomb field of a point-like target. While the former amplitude acquires only a phase, in the latter case also the
cross-section is modified. Although the problem of Coulomb corrections for DIS on nuclei is extremely difficult, it should
be challenged rather than “swept under the carpet”. The importance of these radiative corrections is questioned in the present
paper. We show that, in the simplest case of a constant hadronic current, the Coulomb corrections provide a phase to the Born
amplitude, therefore the cross-section remains the same. Inclusion of more realistic hadronic dynamics changes this conclusion.
The example of coherent production of vector mesons off nuclei reveals large effects. So far a little progress has been made
deriving lepton wave functions in the Coulomb field of an extended target. Employing available results based on the first-order
approximation in Zα, we conclude that the Coulomb corrections are still important for heavy nuclei. We also consider an alternative approach
for extended nuclear targets, the eikonal approximation, which we demonstrate to reproduce the known exact results for Coulomb
corrections. Calculating electroproduction of vector mesons, we again arrive at a large deviation from the Born approximation.
We conclude that one should accept with caution the experimental results for nuclear effects in DIS based on analyses done
in the Born approximation.

By quenched condensation onto amorphous Sb ultrathin Cu films were prepared in the thickness range of a few atomic layers. They exhibit very short inelastic lifetimes. We investigated, whether their inelastic electronic lifetime is affected by coupling them to thick Cu films with much longer inelastic lifetimes. Our measurements show, that for sufficiently strong electronic coupling the inelastic lifetime of the ultra-thin Cu film is enhanced and finally becomes comparable to the inelastic lifetime of the thick Cu film. We also measured the Coulomb anomaly in the temperature dependence of the resistance. Our films confirm previous results, that the dynamical Coulomb interaction seems not to be long ranged, as expected. 相似文献

Mössbauer γ-ray diffraction was used to discriminate between the elastic and inelastic scattering intensities from the (1 1 1) to (5 5 5) Bragg reflections of a single crystal of KCN. The energy resolution of our experiment was 28 neV. We observe pronounced inelastic peaks at each Bragg point, while the elastic scattering dies out rapidly due to a large Debye-Waller factor. Thus in case of (4 4 4) and (5 5 5) the inelastic scattering is larger in magnitude than the elastic one. 相似文献

By way of examples, one- and two-electron quantum rings are considered. 相似文献

A new type of crystal spectrometer for elastic and inelastic neutron scattering has been set up by modifying an existing flat-cone diffractormeter at the BER II-reactor in Berlin (West). The main difference to conventional triple axis spectrometers is the analyser part. It consists of large crystal plates which reflect the neutrons out of the horizontal plane into a curved multicounter. This allows simultaneous measurements in a large and continuous range of scattering angles for a constant energy transfer. The resolution function has been calculated and compared with experimental results. There is the possibility to focus acoustical phonons. We present applications together with experimental results such as quasielastic diffuse scattering in orientationally disordered crystals and inelastic scattering due to acoustical phonons. In combination with the flat-cone technique all elastic and inelastic scattering events of a single crystal can be collected in a systematic and efficient way.in collaboration with the Hahn-Meitner Institut, Berlin (West) 相似文献
