Antiferro-quadrupole Ordering of CeB6 Studied by Resonant X-ray Scattering
Abstract
Under zero magnetic field, a quadrupolar order parameter at qQ=(1/2,1/2,1/2) in a typical antiferro-quadrupole (AFQ) ordering compound CeB6 has been observed for the first time by means of a resonant X-ray scattering (RXS) te\ chnique. The RXS is observed at the 2p->5d dipole transition energy of the Ce L3-edge. Using this RXS technique to observe the pure order parameter of the AFQ state, the magnetic phase diagram of Phase II is first determined.
