Abstract
The longitudinal magnetoresistance (LMR) of polycrystalline Ce(Cu1−xNix)2Si2 samples is investigated between T = 2 and 15 K up to H = 80 kOe. The application of magnetic field induces anomalous temperature dependence of the resistivity with the power index n 0.03) is observed at 2 K. The negative LMR at 80 kOe is maximized (∼ −4 % at T = 2 K) around x ∼ 0.10 and subsequently disappears at higher Ni concentrations. Disappearance of the positive LMR in lower x region and the negative LMR at higher Ni concentrations implies a collapse of a coherent Kondo lattice state, and a rapid enhancement of Kondo temperature, respectively. Anomalous quantum fluctuations are probably developed around x ∼ 0.10.
