High precision measurements of the Seebeck coefficient S(T) were carried out on the single crystals of RB_{12} (R = Ho, Er, Tm, Lu) at temperatures 2-300 K. It was shown that the effects of phonon drag result from vibrations of rare earth ions (ħω_E≈10-33 meV) in the rigid framework structure of the B_{12} clusters and determine the main contribution to thermopower at intermediate temperatures (30-300 K). The correlated behavior of transport parameters favors the appreciable enhancement of spin fluctuations in the sequence of magnetic compounds (HoB_{12}-TmB_{12}) when approaching to the valence instability state in YbB_{12}. The giant increase in S(T) detected in the vicinity of the Néel temperature T_N for HoB_{12}, ErB_{12}, and TmB_{12} seems to result from the density of states renormalization caused by antiferromagnetic ordering.

Bulk and Local Magnetic Susceptibility of ErB_{12}

EN
High precision measurements of magnetoresistance Δρ/ρ = f(T,H) and magnetization M(T,H) were carried out on single crystals of rare-earth dodecaboride ErB_{12} at temperatures in the interval 1.8-30 K in magnetic fields up to 70 kOe. The high accuracy of the experiments allowed us to perform numerical differentiation and analyze quantitatively the behavior of the derivative d(Δρ/ρ)/dH = f(T,H) and of the magnetic susceptibility χ(T,H) = dM/dH in paramagnetic and magnetically ordered (antiferromagnetic, T_N ≈ 6.7 K and T_M ≈ 5.85 K) phases of ErB_{12}. It was shown that negative magnetoresistance anomalies observed in present study in paramagnetic state of ErB_{12} may be consistently interpreted in the framework of a simple relation between resistivity and magnetization -Δρ/ρ ~ M^2.

Defect Mode in LaB_{6}

EN
The specific heat of high quality La^{N}B_{6} (N=10, 11, natural) single crystals is investigated in a wide range of temperatures 2 - 300 K. The obtained data allow to estimate correctly (i) the electronic γ· T term of specific heat (γ ≈ 2.4 mJ/(mol·K^{2})), (ii) the contribution from quasilocal vibrating mode of La^{3+} ions (Θ_{E} ≈ 150 - 152 K), (iii) the Debye-type term from rigid boron cages (Θ_{D} ≈ 1160± 40 K). Our data also suggest an additional defect-mode component (iv) which may be attributed to a contribution of 1.5% boron vacancies in LaB_{6}. The obtained results may be interpreted in terms of formation of two level systems, which appear when La^{3+} ions are displaced from their centrosymmetric positions in the cavities of rigid boron cages, apart from randomly distributed boron vacancies in the LaB_{6} matrix.

Hall Effect in GdB_{6}

81%
EN
The Hall effect of GdB_{6} has been studied on high quality single crystals in the temperature range 2-150 K and in magnetic field of 1 T. The obtained data allow to detect anomalies in the antiferromagnetic (AF) phase including (i) a drastic enhancement of negative Hall coefficient below T_{N1} ≈ 15.5 K and (ii) the appearance of an anomalous Hall effect at T_{N2} ≈ 4.7 K. Possible scenarios of the AF ground state formation are discussed.

Anisotropy of Magnetoresistance in HoB₁₂

81%
EN
We present results of precision measurements of magnetoresistance of isotopically pure Ho¹¹B₁₂ at low temperatures 2÷10 K in magnetic field up to 80 kOe of different orientation to the crystal axes. The data obtained revealed strong anisotropy of magnetoresistance and allowed us to reconstruct magnetic H-T phase diagrams for main crystallographic directions H || [001], [110], and [111]. Analysis of magnetoresistance derivatives allowed to conclude in favor of two main magnetoresistance contributions. Among of them the negative quadratic component is attributed to charge carriers scattering on a magnetic clusters of Ho³⁺ ions (4f component) and positive linear one may be explained in terms of scattering on a spin density waves (5d component).

Anisotropy of the Charge Transport in GdB₆

81%
EN
The anisotropy of charge transport was investigated in the antiferromagnetic II state of GdB₆ from precise measurements of transverse magnetoresistance. Based on the data obtained we detected a complicated behavior of magnetoresistance curves which are characterized by the appearance of considerable hysteresis on the field and angular dependences below T_{N2}. Moreover it was shown that the system GdB₆ is sensitive to cooling-warming prehistory. The data analysis allowed to reconstruct magnetic H-T phase diagram of GdB₆ along main crystallographic directions (H||⟨001⟩,⟨110⟩,⟨111⟩) and to propose additional phase transition inside AF II phase at H₁ ≈ 0.5 T.
