摘要
In the d-electron system YFe2Ge2, an unusually high and temperature dependent Sommerfeld ratio of the specific heat capacity C /T approximate to 100 mJ/(mol K-2) and an anomalous power law temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity similar or equal to 0+AT3/2 signal Fermi liquid breakdown, probably connected to a close-by quantum critical point. Full resistive transitions and DC diamagnetic screening fractions of up to 80% suggest that pure samples of YFe2Ge2 superconduct below 1.8 K. ((c) 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH &Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
