Pressure Evolution of the Magnetism and Fermi Surface of YbPtBi Probed by a Tunnel Diode Oscillator Based Method

  • A central research topic in condensed matter physics is the understanding of the evolution of various phases and phase transitions under different tuning parameters such as temperature, magnetic field and pressure. To explore the pressure-induced evolution of the magnetism and Fermi surface of the heavy fermion antiferromagnet YbPtBi, we performed tunnel diode oscillator based measurements under pressure at low temperatures in high magnetic fields. Our results reveal that the magnetic order strengthens and the Fermi surface shrinks as the pressure increases, which are consistent with typical observations for Yb-based heavy fermion compounds. In addition, an anomalous change in the quantum oscillation amplitudes is observed above 1.5 GPa, and determining the origin requires further study.
