Abstract
Ce3NiGe2 was studied by means of DC and AC magnetic susceptibility, magnetization,electrical resistivity, magnetoresistivity and specific heat measurements.The compound undergoes two subsequent magnetic phase transitions atTN = 6.2 Kand T1 = 5.2 K, from paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic and to ferromagnetic-like ground state,respectively. The electrical and thermodynamic behaviour is governed by interplay ofRKKY, Kondo and crystal field interactions, with the Kondo temperature of the order of10 K and the total crystal–field splitting of about 690 K.
