Detecting quantum critical fluctuations in the distorted kagome Kondo compound CeRhSn

DOI

Geometrically frustrated spin systems have been studied extensively for decades because of many intriguing phenomena, exemplified by the non-magnetic quantum disordered states. On the other hand, there is a long history of studying interactions between the localized and conduction electrons in Ce or Yb compounds, which typically results in the Kondo-lattice or valence-fluctuation states. A combination of such Kondo-lattice state and geometrical frustration becomes a new topic, both enhancing quantum fluctuations in different routes. In this proposal, we would like to investigate CeRhSn, which is recently found to be a model compound belonging to this new class. We would like to elucidate the origin of quantum critical behavior detected in the bulk measurements by investigating its low-energy spin fluctuations in detail.
