Abstract

We have studied the effect of magnetic rare-earth ion (Pr, Nd) doping on phase IV in CexLa1−xB6 (x=0.4,0.5) systems. An unexpected large increase in the IV–I transition temperature TIV–I by Pr and Nd dopings was observed, while no such increase was observed for x≥0.6. Although we do not know the reason why the doping effect markedly differs between x≤0.5 and x≥0.6 at present, the order parameter in phase IV for x≤0.5 is coupled with the magnetic dipole moment of Pr and Nd ions and phase IV is stabilized.
