Description
We succeeded in growing high quality single crystals of URu2Si2 and performed thermal expansion measurements under pressure. Applying a magnetic field along the [001] direction in the tetragonal structure, the so-called hidden-order phase reappears after the suppression of the antiferromagnetic phase above the critical pressure Px. We determined the pressure-temperature-field phase diagram for the paramagnetic, hidden-order and antiferromagnetic states for the H||[001] direction. We also present the temperature dependence of the upper critical field Hc2 for H||[001] and [100] determined by the AC specific heat measurements, corresponding to the bulk superconductivity in a high quality single crystal.
