Description

The results of an inelastic neutron scattering investigation of the crystal field potential of YbT2Si2 (T = Ni, Co, Fe) are reported. We have observed well-defined inelastic peaks due to crystal field transitions for all three compounds. By performing a profile refinement of the measured spectra, we have determined the parameters of the crystal field Hamiltonian for YbCo2Si2 and YbNi2Si2. (c) 2000 American Institute of Physics
