Abstract
We report the specific heat and thermoelectric power S ( T ) of filled skutterudite PrOs 4 P 12 , which has a Γ 1 crystalline electric field ground state. The electronic specific heat coefficient γ of PrOs 4 P 12 indicates a weak enhanced value (γ Pr /γ La ∼2.3) in comparison with that of LaOs 4 P 12 . The influence in the specific heat by c – f hybridization effect is discussed. S ( T ) of PrOs 4 P 12 exhibits a small maximum around 10 K although there is no such maximum for Ln Os 4 P 12 ( Ln = La, Nd, and Gd). Consequently, S / T for Ln = Pr increases below 20 K, which is consistent with the enhanced γ. We also report the magnetization process to 46 T in PrOs 4 P 12 .
