Quantum phase transition in Cr-Ti alloys

  • 1. Departamento de Fisica, Universidade Federal de Sao Carlos, CP. 676, 13565-905, Sao Carlos, SP (Brazil)

Description

In this work we present the results of electrical resistivity and Hall coefficient measurements for antiferromagnetic Cr1-x-xat.Ti% alloys with 0 < x < 5.0. Our results show an abrupt jump in in density of carriers as a function of concentration of Ti at 2K, characterizing a quantum phase transition, with quantum critical point in xc=1.2at.Ti%.
