Induced Jahn Teller Transition in PrCu2

  • Chapter
Crystal Field Effects in Metals and Alloys

Abstract

We have investigated the low temperature phase transition of PrCu2 by means of several experimental methods on single crystal specimens. We have measured the magnetic susceptibility, the electrical resistivity, the thermal expansion and the magnetostriction, several elastic constants and the thermal conductivity. We conclude that PrCu2 undergoes an induced type Jahn-Teller effect at 7.5 K.
