Magnetic susceptibility χ of the isostructural Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.9) was
studied as a function of the hydrostatic pressure up to 2 kbar at fixed temperatures of
77.3 and 300 K, using a pendulum-type magnetometer. A pronounced pressure effect on χ
is found to be negative in sign and strongly (non-monotonously) dependent on the Cu
content, showing a sharp maximum at x ≅ 0.4. The experimental results are discussed in
terms of the valence instability of Ce ion in the studied alloys. For the reference CeNi5
compound the main contributions to χ and their volume dependence are calculated ab
initio within the local spin density approximation (LSDA), and appeared to be in close
agreement with experimental data.
Introduction
Many of Ce intermetallics are characterized by a strong hybridization of the
magnetic 4f electrons with the conduction electron states resulted in delocalization
of the 4f level and a change of its occupancy, and hence the Ce valence. As is evi-
dent from measurements of X-ray absorption and lattice parameters [1], together
with the magnetic [2,3], electric and thermoelectric properties [3] in the isostruc-
tural Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys, the Ce valence decreases steadily from Ce4+ to Ce3+
with increase of the Cu content, and the system undergoes a series of transitions
from the nonmagnetic metal with empty 4f level (x = 0) through the intermediate
valence (IV) state combined with a nonmagnetic dense Kondo state (0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.8)
to the magnetic 4f metal (0.9 ≤ x ≤ 1). Thus, the reference CeNi5 compound is the
exchange-enhanced itinerant paramagnet [1,4,5] with the temperature dependent
magnetic susceptibility exhibiting a broad maximum around 100 K, similar to
those observed in YNi5 and LuNi5 [4,6]. On the other hand, the CeCu5 compound
is a Kondo lattice antiferromagnet with TN = 3.9 K and TK = 2.2 K [7]. The mag-
Физика и техника высоких давлений 2007, том 17, № 1
60
netic susceptibility in CeCu5 at T ≥ 50 K obeys a Curie−Weiss law with the effec-
tive magnetic moment value close to that expected for Ce3+ state [7–9]. Due to a
direct relation between magnetic properties and the rare earth (RE) valence state,
and also the strong correlation between the valence itself and RE ionic volume,
the RE compounds with unstable f shell exhibit a large magnetovolume effect.
Therefore, a study of pressure effect on magnetic properties of the systems with
variable RE valence are of great interest to gain insight into a nature of the IV state.
Here we report results of our study of the pressure effect on the magnetic sus-
ceptibility of Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys in a wide range of Cu concentrations. The ex-
perimental results are supplemented by calculations of the magnetovolume effect
value for the reference CeNi5 compound, using a modified relativistic full poten-
tial linearized «muffin-tin» orbital method (FP-LMTO).
Experimental details and results
The polycrystalline samples of Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys (0 ≤ x ≤ 4.5) were pre-
pared by arc-melting of a stoichiometric amount of initial elements in a water-
cooled crucible under protective argon atmosphere. The study of X-ray powder
diffraction at room temperature revealed that all samples crystallize in CaCu5-type
hexagonal structure, and obtained data
on their lattice parameters agree closely
with that published in literature. Any
other phases were not detected within
the resolution of the X-ray technique.
The pressure effect on magnetic sus-
ceptibility was measured under helium
gas pressure up to 2 kbar at fixed tem-
peratures, 77.3 and 300 K, using a pen-
dulum magnetometer placed into the
nonmagnetic pressure cell [10]. The
relative errors of our measurements, per-
formed in the magnetic field H = 1.7 T,
did not exceed 0.05%. The pressure de-
pendence χ(P) appeared to be linear in
all samples studied. For each tempera-
ture, the values of χ at ambient pressure
and their pressure derivatives, dlnχ/dP,
were corrected for a weak field depend-
ence of χ caused by ferromagnetic impu-
rities. The corresponding corrections
were less than 5%.

nitude of the pressure effect and its
linear behavior. The negative sign of
the effect is consistent with anticipa-
tion that high pressure has to increase
the valence, since the Ce ion in the
higher valence (less magnetic) state
has a smaller volume.
Of particular interest is a strong
and non-monotonous concentration
dependence of the pressure effect
which shows a sharp maximum in the
vicinity of x ≈ 0.4 for both tempera-
tures, 77.3 and 300 K (Fig. 2,a). A
comparison between the obtained ex-
perimental results and the data on
concentration dependence of the lat-
tice parameter a and the effective Ce
valence ν from [1] (Fig. 2,b) indicates
that the maximum in dlnχ(x,T)/dP
correlates with a drastic change of a
(and ν) around x ≈ 0.4 (ν ≈ 3.5).
It is interesting to note that a
similar peculiarity in dlnχ/dP versus
valence was observed for various Yb
compounds at room temperature [11].
As was shown, the relative change of
χ with pressure is the most pro-
nounced also at the half-integer value of valence, ν = 2.5, but contrary to Ce com-
pounds, it has a positive sign, as can be expected.
Theory for CeNi5
Ab initio calculations of the electronic structure were carried out for the refer-
ence compound CeNi5 by employing a modified FP-LMTO method [12,13]. The
exchange-correlation potential was treated in the LSDA approximation [14] of the
density functional theory. To analyze the observed magnetovolume effect value in
CeNi5, the magnetic susceptibility and its volume dependence were calculated
within the modified method, wherein the external magnetic field H was taken into
account by means of the Zeeman operator, H(2s + l). The latter was incorporated
in FP-LMTO Hamiltonian [15] for calculations of the field-induced spin and or-
bital magnetic moments. The corresponding contributions to magnetic suscepti-
bility were derived from the field-induced moments, which have been calculated
in an external magnetic field of 10 T. The electronic structure calculations were
performed for a number of lattice parameters close to the experimental one. The

equilibrium lattice spacing a and corre-
sponding theoretical bulk modulus B
were determined from the dependence of
the total energy on the unit cell volume
(the ratio c/a was fixed at its experimental
value), and appeared to be a = 8.96 a.u.
and B = 1.9 Mbar (to be compared with
experimental a = 9.2 a.u. [1] and B =1.43
Mbar [16]). The differences between
theory and experiment on bulk properties
of CeNi5 are presumably related to the
overbonding tendency of the LSDA ap-
proach [12].
The strongly volume dependent spin
contribution to χ originates predomi-
nantly from the 3d states of Ni. Regard-
ing the orbital contribution to χ, it comes
mainly from electrons in atomic sphere
of Ce and amounts to about 20% of total
susceptibility. At the theoretical lattice
parameter, the calculated total suscepti-
bility at T = 0 K (2.9·10−3 emu/mol) ap-
peared to be very close to the experi-
mental one (3.0·10−3 emu/mol [4]). The
corresponding volume derivative of sus-
ceptibility, dlnχ/dlnV = 4.2, is in agreement with that resulted from the experi-
mentally observed pressure derivative for CeNi5 at T = 77.3 K, dlnχ/dlnV = 3.9 ±
0.4. Thus, it has been demonstrated that LSDA provides an adequate description
of the strongly exchange enhanced magnetic susceptibility of CeNi5 and its pres-
sure dependence.
Discussion
As is shown, the LSDA allows to describe the magnetovolume effect in the
reference CeNi5 compound that gives grounds for future application of LSDA ab
initio approaches to some Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys. Here, however, we shall restrict
our consideration of the experimental data in alloys within a phenomenological
approach.
A. Concentration dependence
Anticipating the pressure effect on the magnetic susceptibility to arise mainly
from the change of Ce valence, or the fractional occupation of the 4f 1 magnetic
state n4f (ν = 4 – n4f), the pressure effect can be analyzed within a simple relation

in terms of the pressure dependence of n4f (or ν). The most reliable results of such
analysis would be expected in the Cu-rich alloys at low temperatures where the 4f
contribution χ4f becomes dominant.
In Fig. 3,a the χ versus n4f dependence is shown for Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys (0.4
≤ x ≤ 1) at 77.3 K, which is obtained by using the experimental χ(x) values and
ν(x) data of Fig. 2,b. A substitution of the resulted from Fig. 3,a derivatives
∂lnχ/∂n4f and experimental data on dlnχ/dlnP at 77.3 K into Eq. (1) gives dn4f /dP
value which strongly depends on n4f (Fig. 3,b). As is seen, the maximum value of
dn4f /dP is expected at n4f = 0.5 (ν = 3.5) to be about −6.5 ± 1.5 Mbar−1. The cor-
responding estimates of the valence change under pressure, dν/dP = −dn4f /dP, are
of the same order as those resulted from the study of magnetovolume effect in
SmB6 (2 Mbar−1 [17]) and from the measurements of resonant inelastic X-ray
emission in YbAl2 under pressure (~ 5 Mbar−1 [18]).
B. Temperature dependence
In a simple empirical model which includes interconfiguration fluctuations
between f n+1 and f n levels [19], the contribution of the 4f 0 (J = 0) and 4f 1 (J = 5/2)
states of Ce to magnetic susceptibility is given by
2
4 4( ) ( ) / 3 ( )f f fT N n T k T Tχ = µ + . (2)
Here N is the Avogadro number, µ − effective magnetic moment of the 4f 1
state, Tf – the characteristic temperature (valence fluctuation temperature, or
Kondo temperature, or heavy-fermion bandwidth). It should be mentioned that a
quantitative analysis of the χ4f (T) dependence using Eq. (2) requires the complete
data on n4f(T) (and probably on Tf(T) as well) which are actually unavailable.
Furthermore, to separate the χ4f(T) term from the experimental data on χ(T) one
needs to know a background contribution χ0, which generally can not be ne-
glected.
A simplified analysis of the experimental data can be performed assuming n4f,
Tf and χ0 to be temperature independent. Then the magnetic susceptibility obeys a
modified Curie−Weiss law,
0 4f 0( ) ( ) /( )T T C Tχ = χ + χ ≡ χ + −θ , (3)
with C = Nµ2n4f /3k and θ = −Tf. For the representative Ce(Ni0.5Cu0.5)5 alloy, the
best fit of Eq. (3) to the experimental data at T ≥ 50 K (Fig. 4,a) [2] is obtained
with χ0 = 0.6·10−3 emu/mol, C = 0.48 K·emu/mol and θ = −79 K. It should be
pointed out that the estimate n4f = 0.6, resulted from C, is in a reasonable agree-
ment with the value of 0.8 that follows from the data in Fig. 2,b for x = 0.5.
Физика и техника высоких давлений 2007, том 17, № 1

As is evident from Eqs. (2) and (3), the pressure effect on the 4f susceptibility
is governed by changes of n4f and Tf with pressure, as

being a linear function of 1/(T + Tf) or χ4f (T). The data on dlnχ4f /dP for
Ce(Ni0.5Cu0.5)5 alloy were derived from the measured effect, dlnχ/dP, in the
framework of Eq. (3) using a value dlnχ0/dP ~ −1 Mbar−1 as a rough estimate for
the pressure dependence of the background [20] which is assumed to originate
from 3d(4d) itinerant electrons. The obtained values dlnχ4f /dP are plotted in Fig.
4,b as a function of χ4f (T). Its linear approximation in accordance with Eq. (4)

The resultant value dn4f /dP = − 2.5 ± 0.5 Mbar−1 is in line with the value dn4f /dP =

tration dependence of the pressure effect within Eq. (1). From the pressure de-

Then, assuming Tf ∝ TK and using in Eq. (6) the values dn4f /dP = −3.2 ± 0.7

For Ce(Ni0.4Cu0.6)5 alloy, the analogous analysis in the framework of Eq. (3)
and Eq. (4) yields the following Curie−Weiss parameters: C ~ 0.806 K·emu/mol,
χ0 ~ 0, Tf = −θ = 26 K, and their pressure derivatives:

The latter results in the Grüneisen parameter Ωf = 35 ± 6, assuming the bulk
modulus value B = 1.5 Mbar, as in the Ce(Ni0.5Cu0.5)5 alloy. The similar estimate
follows from Eqs. (6) and (7) with n4f = 0.93 derived from the data in Fig. 2,b.
The reasonable description of the Grüneisen parameter for alloys with x = 0.5 and
0.6 with Anderson model [21] allows to consider the Cu-rich alloys studied in the
present work as the nonmagnetic Kondo lattices.
Conclusions
The pressure effect on magnetic susceptibility of Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys has
been observed for the first time. This effect is negative in sign, and also strongly
and non-monotonously dependent on the Cu content. For the reference CeNi5
compound, the pressure effect value is successfully described within LSDA ap-
proximation, using the modified full potential relativistic FP-LMTO method. For
Ce(Ni1−xCux)5 alloys the effects of pressure and alloying on the valence state of
Ce ion are the most pronounced around x ~ 0.4, which corresponds to the half-
integer valence ν ~ 3.5. In other words, the fractional occupation n4f ~ 0.5 with the
nearly degenerate f 0 and f 1 configurations of electronic states is favorable for the
valence instability. It is also found that the main contributions to the pressure ef-
fect on magnetic susceptibility for the Cu-rich alloys are i) the decrease of the ef-
fective Curie constant and ii) the increase of the characteristic temperature Tf The
latter exhibits a large and positive value of the Grüneisen parameter, which can be
apparently described within the Anderson impurity model. Both of these contri-
butions have their origin in the change of the Ce valence state caused by depopu-
lation of the f state under pressure due to its shift relative to the Fermi energy.
