The quantum functional intermetallic compound Pr1−x−yLaxPbyTe

The intermetallic compound Pr1−x−yLaxPbyTe shows a wide spectrum of physical phenomena. Depending on the metallurgical composition, the compound changes its behaviour from hyperfine-enhanced nuclear magnetic order to super- or semiconductivity. In addition, there are interesting interplay effects between these ground state phenomena. In consequence, Pr1−x−yLaxPbyTe may serve as an interesting quantum functional compound for quantum computing experiments. In this paper, the hyperfine enhanced nuclear magnetic and superconducting properties are pointed out.
