Magnetic and electrical transport properties of Ce$_{1-x}$Nd$_{x}$CoIn$_{5}$

ORAL

Abstract

Single crystals of Ce$_{1-x}$Nd$_{x}$CoIn$_{5}$ (0$\le $x$\le $1) were grown by molten metallic flux technique. Synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction confirms phase purity and smooth evolution of the lattice parameters with increased Nd concentration. Evolution of the ground state in this alloy series between heavy fermion superconducting for x = 0 (CeCoIn$_{5})$ and antiferromagnetic for x = 1 (NdCoIn$_{5})$ will be presented.
