摘要
We present the results of XRD, magnetization, resistivity and specific heat measurements of CeIr2Si2 single crystals for both, the low-temperature alpha-phase and the high-temperature beta-phase. respectively. The alpha-phase adopts the tetragonal ThCr2Si2-type whereas the beta-phase forms in the CaBe2Ge2-type structure. Both the phases remain paramagnetic down to low temperatures, nevertheless both, the magnetization and resistivity exhibit pronounced anisotropy in the whole temperature range of measurements (2-300K). Results of fitting the temperature dependence of the susceptibility within the interconfiguration-fluctuation model point to the Ce valence fluctuating between 3+ and 4+. The alpha-phase behaves as a Fermi-liquid (FL) at low temperatures whereas the beta-phase exhibits non-Fermi-liquid (NFL) features. The results are discussed in context of other similar polymorphic compounds. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
