Influence of non magnetic impurities on the Kondo effect
The influence of non magnetic impurities on the specific heat, resistivity, and thermopower of dilute magnetic alloys is investigated in the frame of the Suhl-Nagaoka theory. It is found that the various Kondo anomalies are only little changed for pairs consisting of a magnetic and a non magnetic impurity a distanceR>3kf−1 apart compared to single magnetic impurities, wherekf is the Fermi wave vector.
