Abstract
The Fermi liquid model of itinerant electron magnetism is applied to t he calculation of the magnetic susceptibility of narrow gap semiconduc tors. The anomalous temperature dependence of susceptibility as has be en observed for FeSi is obtained. It is shown that the Fermi liquid ef fect which gives rise to the susceptibility maximum in metals, also pl ays a crucial role in the susceptibility maximum in narrow gap systems .
