| Popis: | The magnetic field dependence of the magnetisation ($M$) and the temperature dependence of the ac susceptibility ($\chi' = dM/dH$) of CePd(1-x)Rh(x) single crystals with $0.80 \leq x \leq 0.86$ are analysed within the frame of the quantum Griffiths phase scenario, which predicts $M \propto H^{\lambda}$ and $\chi' \propto T^{\lambda-1}$ with $0 \leq \lambda \leq 1$. All $M$ vs $H$ and $\chi'$ vs $T$ data follow the predicted power-law behaviour. The parameter $\lambda$, extracted from $\chi'(T)$, is very sensitive to the Rh content $x$ and varies systematically with $x$ from -0.1 to 0.4. The value of $\lambda$, derived from $M(H)$ measurements on a \cpr single crystal, seems to be rather constant, $\lambda \approx 0.2$, in a broad range of temperatures between 0.05 and 2 K and fields up to about 10 T. All observed signatures and the $\lambda$ values are thus compatible with the quantum Griffiths scenario. Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures |
