Development of the magnetic order in Yb(Rh1−xCox)2Si2 — •Christoph Klingner, Cornelius Krellner, Tanja Westerkamp, Niels Oeschler, Manuel Brando, Christoph Geibel, and Frank Steglich — Max Planck Institute for Chemical Physics of Solids, D-01187 Dresden, Germany

In recent years YbRh2Si2 has been intensively investigated due to its proximity to an antiferromagnetic quantum critical point (QCP). As expected for Yb-Kondo lattice compounds the magnetic ordering of YbRh2Si2 (TN=70mK) can be shifted to higher temperature by applying pressure. Doping with Cobalt results in positive chemical pressure, allowing therefore the investigation of the magnetic phase diagram and the behavior while stabilizing the antiferromagnetic ordered state. The advantage of less complex measurements compared to high pressure experiments leads to more detailed and precise results than in pressure studies. In this contribution we report on the growth of a series of single crystals Yb(Rh1−xCox)2Si2 with concentrations x between 0 and 1. The low temperature properties studied by resistivity, specific heat and magnetization measurements for different concentrations will be presented. Further on the behaviour of the transitions under an applied magnetic field will be discussed. Finally, a phase diagram of Yb(Rh1−xCox)2Si2 will be presented and compared with the pressure phase diagram of YbRh2Si2.
