Abstract
- CeRu2Si2 and CeRh2Si2 are two similar heavy fermion stoichiometric compounds located on the two sides of the magnetic quantum critical phase transition. CeRh2Si2 is an antiferromagnet below T_N=36 K with moderate electronic masses whereas CeRu2Si2 is a paramagnetic metal with particularly heavy electrons. Here we present tunneling spectroscopy measurements as a function of temperature (from 0.15 K to 45 K). The tunneling conductance at 0.15 K reveals V-shaped dips around the Fermi level in both compounds, which disappear in CeRu2Si2 above the coherence temperature, and above the N\'eel temperature in CeRh2Si2. In the latter case, two different kinds of V-shaped tunneling conductance dips are found.
