摘要
Electrical resistivity rho and magnetic properties of light rare-earth Heusler single crystals RInCu2, R = La, Pr, Nd, and Sm, have been measured in the temperature range 1.3-300 K. No anomalies due to magnetic transitions were found in the temperature dependence of rho and magnetic susceptibility chi above 4.2 K. Pr and Nd Heusler compounds have large negative paramagnetic Curie temperatures - 19 and - 29 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of chi is discussed on the basis of the crystalline field effect. For Sm compound, chi(T) is discussed by means of Van Vleck paramagnetism.
