Abstract

We report C-13 NMR characterization of the new superconductor MgCNi3 [T. He et al., Nature (London) 411, 54 (2001)]. We found that both the uniform spin susceptibility and the spin fluctuations show a strong enhancement with decreasing temperature, and saturate below similar to 50 K and similar to 20 K, respectively. The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T-13(1) exhibits typical behavior for isotropic s-wave superconductivity with a coherence peak below T-c = 7.0 K that grows with decreasing magnetic field.
