The de Haas-van Alphen effect has been measured in the layer compound PdTe 2. Frequency branches from 0.1 kT to 4.5 kT were observed in the three principal planes. Effective masses were also measured. The number of branches suggests a complicated Fermi surface which is not well explained by existing band structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
