Description

Electrical resistivity and specific heat measurements on a (Cr98.5Al1.5)100-yMoy alloy system are reported. The results indicate that antiferromagnetism is fully suppressed to below 2 K in alloys with y larger than 4.5 at.% Mo. The Sommerfeld electronic specific heat coefficient decreases sharply below this concentration.
