- W2952742711 abstract "Acta Cryst. (1990). CA6, 1579-1580 Structure of the Heavy-Fermion Superconductor UBe13* BY M. W. MCELFRESH, J. H. HALL, R. R. RYAN,~ J. L. SMITH AND Z. FISK Los Alamos National Laboratory, University of California, Los Alamos, N M 87545, USA (Received 30 November 1988; accepted 27 September 1989) Abstract. Uranium-beryllium, UBe13, Mr = 355 2, cubic, Fm3c, a = 10-268 (2)/~, V = 1082-5 A 3, Z = 8, Dx = 4 359 g cm -3, A(Mo KaO = 0.70926/~, # = 282.8 cm-1, F(000) = 1066.4, room temperature, final R = 0.022 for 74 observed independent reflec- tions [I > 2tr(/)] out of 937 measured reflections. This is the first single-crystal study of the heavy-fermion superconductor UBe13. The U is surrounded by eight dodecahedral cages each containing one Be(I) at the center, encompassed by Be(2). The U--Be(2) dis- tance is 3.013 A while the Be(1)--Be(2) distance is 2-163 A. Introduction. The discovery of superconductivity in UBel3 and a few other heavy-fermion systems stimu- lated an intensive effort to characterize the nature of both the normal and superconducting states of these materials. In the normal state the electronic specific heat coefficient, y, of UBel3 extrapolates to a T = 0 K value of 1-1 J m o l - 1 K - 2 (Ott, Rudigier, Fisk & Smith, 1983). The specific heat jump of about 1 J mol -~ K -l at the superconducting transition temperature suggests that the f electrons responsible for the heavy masses are also responsible for the superconductivity. Although there have been pre- vious structural studies on polycrystalline UBe]3 (Baenziger & Rundle, 1949; Goldman, Shapiro, Cox, Smith & Fisk, 1985), this work represents the first such study on single-crystal UBeI3. 0.027 from merging equivalent reflections in original data set containing 937 measured reflections, result- ing in 74 observed reflections [ I > 2tr(/)] out of 83 measured independent reflections.
