Abstract
is a highly correlated, narrow -band metal which undergoes a ferromagnetic transition at which is also a highly correlated metal, has the same crystal structure, comparable electrical resistivity and similar effective Ru moment, but it remains paramagnetic at least down to 1 K. High- and low-field magnetization and susceptibility, thermoremanent magnetization, low-temperature heat capacity, electrical resistivity, and Hall effect measurements are presented on as-grown, untwinned, orthorhombic single-crystal samples of for the entire concentration range is depressed uniformly with increasing all the way to with possible spin-glass-type ordering for close to 1.0. The critical Sr doping of paramagnetic required to cause magnetic correlations among the Ru moments is Magnetization to 7 T shows strong hysteresis for mixed crystals only, with evidence for a rotation of the easy magnetic axis out of the plane. Low-temperature magnetization in dc fields to 30 T for shows a lack of saturation to the full moment, underscoring the itinerant character of the ferromagnetism. Similar data for show it to be a highly exchange enhanced paramagnet, a borderline antiferromagnet or ferromagnet. This is consistent with previous Ru-O in-plane and out-of-plane doping studies. Low-temperature heat capacity shows that the mass enhancement ( and for ) and the Debye temperature ( for ) are nonmonotonically varying with increasing The large electrical resistivity suggests these materials are “bad” metals, with a mean free path at room temperature for The Hall effect...
