Abstract

Using a standard field modulation technique, the de Haas-van Alphen effect was measured in bismuth for various crystal orientations. Measurements performed using a d.c. magnetic field that was ramped up from -0.05 T to -0.6 T at 4.2 K with a w.01 T modulating field. Data shows a variation of dHvA period with orientation that is in good agreement with the results of Bhargava'.
