Abstract

The uniaxial pressure effect on magnetization of PrFe4P12 single crystals has been investigated. An extremely large enhancement of magnetic susceptibility has been found at around TN. With increasing pressure, TN decreases, suggesting the suppression of the antiferromagnetic interaction. In the field dependence of magnetization, we have found an enhancement of magnetic moment with pressure at the low field antiferromagnetic state, suggesting that the breaking of the crystal symmetry has to be considered.
