Abstract

The magnetoresistance and magnetization of single-crystal samples of rare-earth dodecaborides RB12 (R = Ho, Er, Tm, Lu) have been measured at low temperatures (1.8–35 K) in a magnetic field of up to 70 kOe. The effect of positive magnetoresistance that obeys the Kohler’s rule Δρ/ρ = f(ρ(0, 300 K)H/ρ(0, T)) is observed for the nonmagnetic metal LuB12. In the magnetic dodecaborides HoB12, ErB12, and TmB12, three characteristic regimes of the magnetoresistance behavior have been revealed: the positive magnetoresistance effect similar to the case of LuB12 is observed at T > 25 K; in the range T N ≤ T ≤ 15 K, the magnetoresistance becomes negative and depends quadratically on the external magnetic field; and, finally, upon the transition to the antiferromagnetic phase (T < T N ), the positive magnetoresistance is again observed and its amplitude reaches 150% for HoB12. It has been shown that the observed anomalies of negative magnetoresistance in the paramagnetic phase can be explained within the Yosida model of conduction electron scattering by localized magnetic moments. The performed analysis confirms the formation of spin-polaron states in the 5d band in the vicinity of rare-earth ions in paramagnetic and magnetically ordered phases of RB12 and makes it possible to reveal a number of specific features in the transformation of the magnetic structure of the compounds under investigation.
