Abstract

The new compound UFe4P12, which was found to be isostructural to superconducting LaFe4P12 and have a lattice constant of 7.7729 Å, is a semiconductor and shows ferromagnetic order below 3.15 K. CeFe4P12 is also a semiconductor, and its magnetic susceptibility is unusually small in comparison to LaFe4P12. The semiconducting behaviors of both UFe4P12 and CeFe4P12 seem anomalous and may arise from strong f-electron hybridization.
