Abstract

The change of the electronic structure near the Fermi level of Yb 4As3 due to the charge ordering is examined by measuring the temperature dependence of reflectivity spectra of Yb4(As 1-xSbx)3, (x = 0,0.12,0.24) in the photon energy range of 2 meV - 1.5 eV. In the optical conductivity spectra, a peak commonly appears at 0.4 eV below the temperature that is a little higher than the charge ordering temperature. Its intensity increases as the temperature decreases. The peak intensity indicates the ratio of the charge-ordered state for the whole because it originates from the optical transition to the Yb 5d band in the charge-ordered state.
