Abstract

Inelastic neutron scattering spectroscopy of spin-orbit transitions has been carried out on mixed-valence Sm compounds with different degrees of hybridization. Contrasted behaviours are observed in Sm₃Te₄ (narrow, crystalfield-split, inter-multiplet Sm²⁺ and Sm³⁺ transitions) and in Sm_0.8Y_0.2S or Sm_0.5La_0.5B₆ (broadened inter-multiplet transitions, plus an extra peak at lower energy possibly due to an exciton-like state as found previously in SmB₆).
