摘要
The stannides CeNi(5)Sn (intermediate valence), CeNi(4)Sn(2) (antiferromagnet), CeNiSn(2) (antiferromagnet then ferromagnet) and Ce(2)Ni(2)Sn (Kondo antiferromagnet) were investigated by magnetoresistivity (MR) measurements. Various behaviours were detected: (i) MR is always positive-and weak (congruent to 4.8% at 2 K and 9 T) for CeNi(5)Sn as expected for a non-magnetic metal; (ii) for CeNi(4)Sn(2) the positive MR increases strongly (congruent to 35% at 2 K) below T(N) = 11 K; (iii) a large negative MR is observed at 9 T in the paramagnetic state of Ce(2)Ni(2)Sn (congruent to - 18% at 6 K) and CeNiSn(2) (2 - 7% at 5 K) suggesting the influence of the Kondo effect.
