Popis: Abstract The intricate nature of magnetism in uranium-based Kondo lattices is a consequence of correlations between U-5f and conduction electrons. Previously, the source of magnetism has been ascribed to either Mott physics or Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida interaction, both of which are not fully applicable to uranium-based Kondo lattices. Using linearized quasiparticle self-consistent GW plus dynamical mean-field theory, we demonstrate a crossover from incoherent to coherent f-d Kondo cloud in the paramagnetic phase of UTe2, USbTe and USbSe. As the transition occurs, we observe an augmented f-d coherence and Pauli-like magnetic susceptibility, with a substantial frozen magnetic moment of U-5f persisting. We show that momentum dependent f-d hybridization is responsible for the magnetic moments arising from the renormalized f electrons’ van Hove singularity. Our findings provide a perspective to explain the dual nature of magnetism and the long-range magnetic ordering induced by pressure in UTe2.
