Description
We have determined the 4f occupation number nf of the Kondo insulator Ce3Bi4Pt3 over the temperature range 10--300 K using x-ray-absorption measurements near the Ce LIII edge. The compound is weakly mixed valent: nf is approximately 0.9 at 10 K and varies slowly with temperature in a manner similar to that observed in metallic mixed-valent rare-earth compounds
