Abstract

AbstractThe solid solution CeRu1–xPdxAl was synthesized for x = 0.1–0.9 from the elements by arc‐melting and subsequent annealing and characterized by powder X‐ray diffraction. All members crystallize in the orthorhombic LaNiAl type structure, space group Pnma. The lattice parameters range from a = 718–722, b = 412–426, and c = 1588–1620 pm, but no linear change of the lattice parameters was found. Magnetic measurements reveal intermediate cerium valences, which change to more trivalent cerium with increasing Pd content. The susceptibility data was interpreted by either the Inter‐Configuration Fluctuation (ICF) model or the Curie‐Weiss law.
