Distinct ln t-dependent resistance of ce1.2mo6s8 under high pressure

Abstract

We have measured the resistivity and ac magnetic susceptibility of Ce1.2Mo6S8 up to 120 kbar down to 1.2 K. The antiferromagnetic state is first enhanced and then suppressed by pressure. Meanwhile the resistance becomes to increase logarithmically with decreasing temperature over a large temperature range. The results are discussed in terms of existing models. © 1982 The American Physical Society.
