Single crystal growth and characterization of CeCoIn5 and GdCoIn5 — •Leonard Essich, Anja Philipp, Alexej Kraiker, Kristin Kliemt, and Cornelius Krellner — Physikalisches Institut, Goethe Universität Frankfurt, 60438 Frankfurt am Main
The family of 115 rare-earth compounds RTIn5 (T = Co, Rh, Ir) with tetragonal crystal structure received growing attention over the past decades. Low-temperature phenomenologies associated with the strong correlations of the 4f-electrons of the rare-earth element and the quasi-two-dimensionality of the Fermi surface such as spin and valence fluctuations [1], heavy fermions [2], and anisotropic superconductivity [3] are observed for the Ce-based compounds. The GdTIn5 series show magnetic ordering of local 4f-moments with a reduced interplane coupling for GdCoIn5 [3].
In this contribution, we show our results of the self-flux growth of CeCoIn5 and GdCoIn5 single crystals. The crystallographic orientation was determined using microscopy and Laue X-ray diffraction along with the characterization by powder X-ray diffraction, magnetization, specific-heat and specific-resistivity measurements for both compounds.
