Abstract
An anomalous field-induced valence transition has been observed at 4.2 K by magnetization (M), volume magnetostriction (ƊV/V) and magnetoresistivity (ρ) measurements of (Yb - In) Cu2. The valence change at the transition is estimated to 0.06 from the volume shrinkage. In (Yb - Ag) Cu2, field dependences of M and ρ consistent with theoretical predictions for Kondo lattices based on the level-crossing between the low-lying levels split by a cubic crystal field have been observed together with a gradual negative ƊV/V.
