Abstract

We report the results of 125Te and 195Pt NMR measurements on (Ir,Pt)Te2 in order to elucidate the characteristic electronic states. For PtTe2, the NMR spectrum exhibits a sharp line, which shows the uniaxially symmetric powder pattern due to the anisotropic Knight shift. The Knight shift is almost independent of temperature and is larger than that for IrTe2. Also, the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T1 of PtTe2 is proportional to the temperature in a wide temperature range, that is, obeys the Korringa relation as expected for simple metallic systems. From the analyses of the Knight shift and 1/T1, it is suggested that the antiferromagnetic correlations slightly exist.
