Abstract

We report on the results of the ⁷³Ge-NQR measurements for MPt₄Ge₁₂ (M = Sr, Ba) to clarify the microscopic electronic states and the relationship between superconductivity and rattling. In the normal state, 1/T₁ is proportional to temperature, showing a Korringa relation 1/T₁T = 0.020 and 0.016 (sK)^-1 for SrPt₄Ge₁₂ and BaPt₄Ge₁₂, respectively. Also, in the superconducting state, 1/T₁ shows a distinct coherence peak just below T_C, which suggests a conventional BCS superconductor.
