Abstract

YbNiSb has a cubic MgAgAs-type structure and the Yb ions are trivalent. The heat capacity, C, measured in the range 2-20 K is temperature-independent between 2 and 8 K (1.9 J/mol K2) at zero field and shows magnetic field dependence. the value of C/T extrapolated to 0K is 150 mJ/mol K2. The resistivity (3.6 mO cm at 300 K) decreases with temperature. These data indicate that YbNiSb is a possible low-carrier heavy-fermion compound.
