Fermi Surface determination of CeAl2 via de Haas-van Alphen oscillations — •Michael Petrov, Chris Franz, Schorsch Sauther, Andreas Bauer, Mark Wilde, and Christian Pfleiderer — Physik-Department, Technische Universitaet Muenchen, 85748 Garching, Germany
In this work, we revisit the Fermi surface properties of CeAl2, a prototypical heavy-fermion compound that has attracted interest [1,2] because it promises tractable conditions for investigating the emergence of the heavy electron state in an f-electron system and its evolution across metamagnetic phase transitions [3]. In particular, the aim of the current research is a comprehensive picture of the Fermi surface properties, both, above and below the metamagnetic transitions. Torque magnetometry is used as a measurement technique for the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect that is complementary to the previously employed modulation technique. First results regarding both dHvA oscillations and the magnetic state via the non-oscillatory torque components are presented. The dHvA orbits are compared to the results of density functional theory calculations.
