The effect of pressure and Ir substitution in YbRh<sub>2</sub>Si<sub>2</sub>
In this article we present a study of the electrical resistivity of Yb(Rh-xIrx)2Si2, x=0.06, under high pressure and in magnetic field. Ir substitution is expanding the unit cell and leads to a suppression of the antiferromagnetic transition temperature to zero, where eventually a quantum critical point (QCP) exists. We applied …
