摘要
Magnetization, specific heat, and electrical resistivity measurements were made on single crystals of the filled skutterudite compound PrOs4As12. Specific heat measurements indicate an electronic specific heat coefficient gamma similar to 50-200 mJ/mol K-2 at temperatures 10 K <= T <= 18 K, and similar to 1 J/mol K-2 for T <= 1.6 K. The combined measurements reveal the presence of two, or possibly three, ordered phases at temperatures below similar to 2.3 K and in fields below similar to 3 T. The low temperature phase displays antiferromagnetic characteristics, while the nature of the ordering in the other phase(s) has yet to be determined.
