Effect of Hydrostatic Pressure on the Kondo Effect in the Heavy Fermion System Yb2Fe3Si5
Abstract
We report the effect of hydrostatic pressure on the resistivity of the heavy fermion Kondo lattice compound Yb2Fe3Si5 in the temperature range 2-300 K and in pressures upto 10 Kbar. At ambient pressure the resistivity shows a prominent Kondo effect. The Kondo minimum shifts from 22.5 K at ambient pressure to 19.2 K at a pressure of 10 Kbar. The depth of the Kondo minimum also progressively decreases with pressure. These results suggest a possible weakening of the Kondo effect with the application of pressure.
