Zusammenfassung:
Polycrystalline Ce3Pd4Sn6 samples were synthesized by arc-melting and subsequent annealing at 970 K. Specific heat, electrical resistivity and magnetic susceptibility measurements are performed over a wide range in temperature and provide hints for the presence of a complex magnetic ordering below 3 K arising from three crystallographically independent Ce sites. This behaviour is driven by a complex interplay between ferro-, ferri-, and antiferromagnetic correlations among the Ce atoms.
