Popis: The heavy-fermion (HF) metals are very susceptible to chemical substitution. In these compounds the Kondo coupling between a lattice of local moments and the conduction band creates quasiparticle excitations with large effective masses and the dopants disrupt the coherent Kondo coupling. We study the effect of Yb doping on the Pauli-limited, HF superconductor, CeCoIn5 via de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) measurements. Yb acts as a non-magnetic divalent substitution for Ce, equivalent to hole doping on the rare-earth site. Our main goal consists in the systematic investigation of the dHvA oscillations on Ce1−xYbxCoIn5 in order to elucidate the evolution of the Fermi surface as a function of Yb. The dHvA data were obtained on high-quality single crystals with different concentrations of Yb atoms. The experiment was performed in a top-loading dilution refrigerator by use of a capacitive torque cantilever technique at temperatures down to 20 mK in magnetic fields up to 18 T.
