Knight Shift Anomalies in Heavy Electron Materials

Condensed Matter 2009-10-22 v1

Abstract

We calculate non-linear Knight Shift KK vs. susceptibility χ\chi anomalies for Ce ions possessing local moments in metals. The ions are modeled with the Anderson Hamiltonian and studied within the non-crossing approximation (NCA). The Kvs.χK-vs.- \chi non-linearity diminishes with decreasing Kondo temperature T0T_0 and nuclear spin- local moment separation. Treating the Ce ions as an incoherent array in CeSn3_3, we find excellent agreement with the observed Sn K(T)K(T) data.
