Specific-heat behavior across the heavy-fermion to mixed-valence transition in CeCu/sub 2-//sub x/Ni/sub x/Si2 alloys
- 1. Institut de Physique, 3 rue de l'Universite, 67084 Strasbourg Cedex, France
Description
Partial replacement of Cu by Ni in CeCu2Si2 decreases the linear coefficient of specific heat (γ) significantly. The observed ratio of the susceptibility (as T→0) to γ seems to increase with the addition of nickel. The results lend support to our earlier conclusion on the evolution of the heavy-fermion ground state from the strong mixed-valence state
