Electron transport and energy relaxation in dilute magnetic alloys
We consider the effect of the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida~RKKY! interaction between magnetic impurities on the electron relaxation rates in a normal metal. The interplay between the RKKY interaction and the Kondo effect may result in a nonmonotonic temperature dependence of the electron momentum relaxation rate, which determines the Drude conductivity. The electron phase relaxation rate, whic...
متن کاملTransport properties of dilute alloys
The review introduces the reader to a theoretical method describing the transport properties of dilute alloys on an ab initio basis. The calculations start from density or spin density functional theory using a Green function formalism to investigate the underlying electronic structure of the ideal and perturbed system on equal footing. The residual resistivity is calculated solving the quasicl...
متن کاملNUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE iN DILUTE ALLOYS
The experimental results concerning the electric field gradient and the local magnetic field around substitutional impurities in copper-based dilute alloys have been summarized. Comparing the experimental data with theoretical models we have come to the conclusion that only the first-order quadrupole wipe-out number characteristic of the asymptotic charge density oscillation around the impuriti...
متن کاملElectron energy and phase relaxation on magnetic impurities
We discuss the effect of magnetic impurities on the inelastic scattering and dephasing of electrons. Magnetic impurities mediate the energy exchange between electrons. This mechanism is especially effective at small energy transfers E in the absence of Zeeman splitting, when the two-particle collision integral in the electron kinetic equation has a kernel K ∝ 1/E in a broad energy range. In a m...
متن کاملMAGNETIC ORDERING IN DILUTE YTb AND YEr ALLOYS
Dilute YEr alloys show the existence of sinusoidaily modulated antiferromagnetism down to the lowest impurity concentrations studied. Extrapolation of the Ndel temperatures for both YEr and YTb suggests a critical concentration is 0.8 % Tb, Er. Ordering in such dilute alloys may result from exchange enhancement in the yttrium host. Following our earlier study of YTb alloys [I], we der contamina...
