We report on the first study of the noncentrosymmetric ternary carbide YbCoC$_{2}$. Our magnetization, specific heat, resistivity and neutron diffraction measurements consistently show that the system behaves as a heavy-fermion compound,…
We report on synthesis, crystal structure, magnetic, thermodynamic and transport properties of the new compound YbPd$_2$In, crystallizing as a Heusler structure type. A trivalent state of the rare earth was determined by fitting the…
Low-temperature specific heat and its field-dependence up to 16 T was measured in a stoichiometric single crystal of YbP. A sharp peak was observed at {\it T}$_{\rm N}$ = 0.53 K in zero magnetic field. Application of external field seems to…
The thermoelectric power, $S(T)$, of the heavy fermions YbT$_{2}$Zn$_{20}$ ($T$ = Fe, Ru, Os, Ir, Rh, and Co) has been measured to characterize their strong electronic correlations. A large, negative, local minimum in $S(T)$ with…
In the last few decades, the study of topological materials has been carried out on an extensive scale. Half-Heusler alloys are well known for their topological behaviours. In this work, we present a detailed study of topological properties…

We present the magnetic and transport behavior of some Tb compounds, viz., TbIrGe2, TbFe(0.4)Ge2, and TbCo(0.4)Ge2. The stoichoometric germanide TbIrGe2 exhibits at least two distinct magnetic transitions in a close temperature interval…
The results of electrical resistance (1.4 - 300 K), magnetization (2-300 K) and heat-capacity (2 - 50 K) measurements in Y$_2$PdGe$_3$, found to crystallize in a AlB$_2$-derived hexagonalstructure, are reported. The results establish that…
A comprehensive study of the low-temperature properties of YbNi$_4$Mg has revealed evidence of a superheavy-fermion state, characterized by a large electronic specific-heat coefficient $\gamma_0$ $\approx$ 5.65 J mol$^{-1}$ K$^{-2}$ and an…
Thermoelectrics (TEs) are solid-state devices that can realize heat-electricity conversion. Transverse TEs require materials with a large Nernst effect, which typically requires a strong applied magnetic field. However, topological…
Crystallographic data, Seebeck coefficient, electrical resistance and thermal conductivity are reported for a large number of rare-earth compounds, manifestations of the Kondo effect being discussed. In more detail, thermoelectric…
A new ternary intermetallic compound, namely, YbMn2Sb2, has been synthesized and its magnetic and electrical transport properties have been studied in the temperature range of 2 to 300 K. This compound crystallizes in a trigonal, La2O2S…

We report the temperature- and magnetic-field-dependent optical conductivity spectra of the heavy electron metal YbIr$_2$Si$_2$. Upon cooling below the Kondo temperature ($T_{\rm K}$), we observed a typical charge dynamics that is expected…
We report superconductivity in the ternary compound IrBi$_{0.8}$Te$_{1.2}$ with critical temperature 1.7 K. The replacement of Bi by Te leads to the metallic conductivity in contrast to the semiconducting parent compound IrBiTe. The…
Electrical, magnetic and galvanomagnetic properties of half-metallic Heusler alloys of Co$_2$YZ (Y = Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, and Z = Al, Si, Ga, Ge, In, Sn, Sb) were studied in the temperature range 4.2--900 K and in magnetic fields of up to…
