摘要
We report on the tunneling measurements of the CeRhSb single crystal using break junction. The representative gap value of 2 Delta(p-p) = 22 +/- 6 meV is obtained at 4.2 K by measuring along the orthorhombic b direction. We have often observed the multiple-gap structures as well as the very sharp gap-edge structures, which can be due to the directional tunneling with a strongly anisotropic gap.
