The hydrogen absorption properties of CeMnGe, CeFeSi and CeCoX (X=Si and Ge) have been investigated. Neutron powder diffraction performed on deuteride CeCoGeD indicates that D-atoms are inserted in the pseudo-tetrahedral interstices [Ce4] of the tetragonal CeFeSi-type structure of this compound. Magnetization and electrical resistivity measurements reveal that the hydrogenation of: (i) CeCoSi and CeCoGe leads to the transition antiferromagnet→spin fluctuation behaviour; (ii) CeMnGe suppress the magnetic ordering of the Ce-moments. These results which suggest a lost of ordered magnetic moment on the Ce site after hydrogenation could result from the chemical effect of hydrogen which prevails over the unit cell expansion effect.< Réduire
