Electronic Fine Structure in the Electron-Hole Plasma in SrB6
C. O. Rodriguez, Ruben Weht, W. E. Pickett
Abstract
Electron-hole mixing-induced fine structure in alkaline earth hexaborides leads to lower energy (temperature) scales, and thus stronger tendency toward an excitonic instability, than in their doped counterparts (viz. Ca(1-x)La(x)B(6), x=0.005), which are high Curie temperature, small moment ferromagnets. Comparison of Fermi surfaces and spectral distributions with de Haas - van Alphen (dHvA), optical, transport, and tunneling data indicates that SrB6 remains a fermionic semimetal down to (at least) 5 K, rather than forming an excitonic condensate. For the doped system the Curie temperature is higher than the degeneracy temperature.
