Abstract

Pressure-induced variation in the resistive behaviour of CeRu2Si2, a Kondo-lattice system, has been studied in the temperature interval 1.5K - 300K. At low temperatures, resistivity exhibits (i) a linear temperature dependence at low applied pressures (P ≤ 2.26 kbar) and (ii) a quadratic temperature dependence ζ (T) ~AT2 at higher pressures (6.5 kbar ≤ P ≤ 16.8 kbar). The coefficient A decrease, which in turn implies that the spin fluctuation temperature Tsf increases, with increasing applied pressure. The temperature coefficient γ of specific heat C=γ T at low temperature (0.3K ≤ T ≤ 1.6K) is quite large (385 mJ/mole-K2) confirming the heavy fermi liquid nature of the material.
