U-235 NMR study of the itinerant antiferromagnet USb2

摘要

We have succeeded in resolving a U-235 antiferromagnetic nuclear magnetic resonance (AFNMR) signal using U-235-enriched samples of USb2. The uranium hyperfine field and coupling constant estimated for this compound are consistent with those from other experiments. This is the first reported observation of U-235 NMR in conducting host material. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
