摘要
We report optical spectroscopy and ultrafast pump-probe measurements on the antiferromagnetic heavy-fermion compound CePt2In7, a member showing stronger two dimensionality than other compounds in the CeIn3-derived heavy-fermion family. We identify clear and typical hybridization spectral structures at low temperature from the two different spectroscopy probes. However, the strength and related energy scale of the hybridization are much weaker and smaller than that in the superconducting compounds CeCoIn5 and CeIrIn5. The features are more similar to observations on the antiferromagnetic compounds CeIn3 and CeRhIn5 in the same family. The results clearly indicate that the Kondo interaction and hybridizations exist in the antiferromagnetic compounds but with weaker strength.
