Rare earth substitutions in the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn 5 M. Brian Maple, University of California, San Diego, DMR Single crystal of Ce 0.1 Yb 0.9 CoIn 5. The crystal was grown by undergraduate students in our lab using a technique known as the flux- growth method. By using a low melting point material as a flux, the melting point of the material comprising the single crystals is reduced, and single crystals form within the melt. Characteristic temperatures of the (Ce,R)CoIn 5 materials. The superconducting transition temperature T c and heavy fermion coherence temperature T coh are suppressed by the addition of R ions, whether or not they are magnetic. Pr, Gd, Dy, Er, and Yb are magnetic, whereas Y and Lu are not. In the intermetallic compound CeCoIn 5, strong interactions between the electrons cause them to behave at low temperature as if their masses have ballooned by a factor of several hundred, forming heavy fermions. Further, at temperatures below 2.3 K, the electrons participate in an unconventional form of superconductivity. Typical superconductivity is easily destroyed by small amounts of magnetic impurities, but is less sensitive to nonmagnetic impurities. However, we find that adding magnetic rare earth (R) ions to CeCoIn 5 has the same effect on its superconducting state as adding nonmagnetic rare earth ions. The formation of the heavy fermion state in CeCoIn 5 is also comparably affected by both types of impurities. These results indicate that an exotic physical mechanism, likely magnetic in nature, is responsible for superconductivity in CeCoIn 5. Nature Physics – in press

Rare earth substitutions in the heavy-fermion superconductor CeCoIn 5 M. Brian Maple, University of California, San Diego, DMR Education Individuals at different stages of their careers (a post- doc, a graduate student, five undergraduates – including two who participated in the research experience for undergraduate [REU] program) have been involved in this ongoing research. Johnpierre Paglione, the post-doc, recently accepted a faculty position as Assistant Professor of Physics at the University of Maryland, the graduate student, Todd Sayles, continues to work on the project (currently completing the investigation of the effects of Yb doping), several of the undergraduate students have gone on to graduate school, while several others are still with us in the lab. Outreach Our lab has a strong commitment to increasing awareness and understanding of the importance of experimental physics to a variety of communities. We currently administer an advanced physics lab (Phys 133) at the University of California, San Diego, where students are required to plan and carry out a research project, and then present the results to their peers in the class. Additionally, each year we perform regularly scheduled demonstrations at nearby elementary schools displaying some of the interesting aspects of low temperature physics (including the effect of liquid nitrogen when it is in contact with different materials.) To the left are two of the undergraduates working in our lab. Kevin Huang (far left) is preparing samples for growth, while Xiao Zhang is removing a sample from the furnace. To the right are students at Toler Elementary School (San Diego) experi- menting on the effects of liquid nitrogen on a variety of materials.
