“…This is an important advance in crystal growth for these materials, because it provides an alternative way to produce single crystals that are needed for a variety of experiments: e.g., not only is it possible to cleave them, but their quality is also high enough to observe quantum oscillations, as seen in other specimens of similar quality [16,17]. Furthermore, previous studies of URu 2 Si 2 have benefitted from investigation of chemical substitution series [16,[18][19][20][21][22][23]. Most such work has focused on the substitution of elements with low vapor pressures that are easily dissolved in a stoichiometric melt.…”
