摘要

CeRuSn exhibits an extraordinary room temperature structure at 300 K with the coexistence of two types of Ce ions, namely trivalent Ce~(3+) and intermediate-valent Ce~((4-δ)+), in a metallic environment. The ordered arrangement of these two Ce types on specific crystallographic sites results in a doubling of the unit cell along the c axis with respect to the basic monoclinic CeCoAl-type structure. Below room temperature, structural modulation transitions with very broad hysteresis have been reported from measurements of various bulk properties. X-ray diffraction revealed that at low temperatures the doubling of the CeCoAl-type structure is replaced by a different modulated ground state, approximating a near tripling of the basic CeCoAl cell. The transition is accompanied by a significant contraction of the c axis. We present new x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy data at the Ce L_3 absorption edge, measured on a freshly cleaved surface of a CeRuSn single crystal. In contrast to our previous report, the new data exhibit small but significant variations as a function of temperature that are consistent with a transition of a fraction of Ce~(3+) ions to the intermediate valence state, analogous to the γ → α transition in elemental cerium, when cooling through the structural transitions of CeRuSn. Such results in a valence-modulated state.
