摘要
We succeeded in growing single crystals of ternary compounds Ce3Rh4Sn13, Pr3Co4Sn13 and Pr3Rh4Sn13, and studied magnetic properties by the specific heat, magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, thermal expansion and electrical resistivity measurements. Ce3Rh4Sn13 was found to be an antiferromagnet with transition temperatures T-N1 = 1.2K and T-N2 = 2.0K, while Pr3Co4Sn13 and Pr3Rh4Sn13 have no phase transition down to 0.2K, indicating a singlet ground state for both compounds.
