原子间相互作用势对中Al浓度Ni75AlxV25-x合金沉淀序列的影响

基于微观相场模型与反演算法,研究了中Al浓度及温度对Ni₇₅Al_xV_25-x合金沉淀过程的影响：在相同浓度下,L1₂与DO₂₂结构的第一近邻原子间相互作用势随温度升高呈线性增加,两者呈正比的关系;但在同一温度下,L1₂（DO₂₂）结构的第一近邻原子间相互作用势随Al原子浓度的增加而增加（减少）.同时将反演得出的原子作用势代入微观相场模拟中,探讨中Al浓度合金沉淀序列与原子作用势的关系,即当L1₂的第一近邻原子间相互作用势大于（小于）DO₂₂时,L1₂（DO₂₂）优先析出;当L1₂和DO₂₂的第一近邻原子间相互作用势相等时,两者同时析出.特别地,当Al原子的浓度等于0.0589时,发现L1₂和DO₂₂同时析出.利用微观相场法反演原子间相互作用势,为判断中Al浓度合金的沉淀序列增加了可信度.

自旋为1的双层平方晶格阻挫模型的相变

采用双时格林函数方法研究了自旋为1的双层平方晶格阻挫模型的相变行为.详细探讨了层间耦合相互作用J_c和单离子各向异性参数D对奈尔态(AF1)和共线态(AF2)之间相转换的影响.结果显示:只要参数J_c和D不同时为零,奈尔态和共线态在J₂=J₁/2(这里J₁和J₂分别描述的是系统自旋间最近邻和次近邻交换作用)时的相变温度相等,两个态共存.在低于相变点的温度范围内,AF1-AF2态之间可以发生相转换,其相变类型为一阶相变.当J₂≠J₁/2时,尽管AF1-AF2态有不同相变温度,但它们也可以共存.如果AF1(AF2)态的相变温度大,在低温,AF1(AF2)态更稳定;在高温,AF2(AF1)态更稳定;在中间温度范围内,AF1-AF2态之间也可以发生一阶相转换.

A型超导体的近似临界温度公式(Ⅰ)——μ*=0情形

本文用数值解方法从Eliashberg方程计算出超导临界温度T_c,并考察T_c对有效声子谱的依赖关系。在这个研究中,a²F(ω)被取为双δ函数谱,并允许其中的谱参数可以在很宽范围内改变。作者发现在λ<∧区域(即在T_c级数解的收敛圆外),T_c除了依赖λ和矩比外,还依赖T_c级数解的收敛半径倒数Λ;它们之间的关系是有规律的。在这些结果的启示下,本文在μ^*=0情形,用弥合数值解的方法得到一个适用于λ<Λ区域的T_c近似公式。接着,本文作者对吉光达和吴杭生的一篇文章进行了研究,指出:该文提出的超导体分类建议及其工作的主要结论是对的。但其中对决定A型超导体临界温度主要参量问题进行的分析,只适用于这样一些A型超导体,它们的收敛半径倒数Λ或者比λ₀小,或者虽比λ₀大、但λ又小于λ₀,其中λ₀是个依赖谱形状的参量,它的定义在正文中给出。对另一些A型超导体(λ₀<λ<Λ),决定T_c的主要参量不再是λ,而是δ=1/∧^0.5(ω_1/2/ω_log)^5.5λ^1.55。 关键词：

Interacting one dimensional Ising spin chains as a model of the layered antiferroelectric squaric acid

Starting from the structure of the layered antiferroelectric squaric acid and assuming an ice rule type interaction mechanism of the protons it is shown that aboveT _c the molecular layers may be considered as a system of parallel and orthogonal nearly independent linear Ising spin chains with strong intrachain and comparatively weak interchain interactions. Whereas the former are treated exactly as nearest neighbour interactions the interchain interactions are taken into account either by the molecular field approximation or, in computer simulations, by nearest neighbour interactions. The parameters of the model are related to the unusually small transition entropy, to the high and nearly temperature independent dielectric constant aboveT _c ,and to neutron scattering data.     

Long- and short-range structural order during thermal annealing of long-period Au4Zn alloys

We have used x-ray analysis to study the disordering and decomposition processes in Au₄Zn alloys which exhibit a long-period Ll₂(MM) superstructure at low temperatures. Several stages are observed during isothermal anneals of the alloy above T_c: I) disordering; II) an incubation period; and III) decomposition. The duration of each of these stages depends on the annealing temperature. It is shown that the disordering of the Ll₂(MM) superstructure always precedes the decomposition process, but the short-range order in the disordered solid solution resembles that of the Ll₂(MM) long-range order.

Effective interactions and superconductivity in the t-J model in the large-N limit

The feasibility of a perturbation expansion for Green's functions of the t-J model directly in terms of X-operators is demonstrated using the Baym-Kadanoff functional method. As an application we derive explicit expressions for the kernel of the linearized equation for the superconducting order parameter in leading order of a 1/N expansion. The linearized equation is solved numerically on a square lattice taking instantaneous and retarded contributions into account. Classifying the order parameter according to irreducible representations of the point group C_4v of the square lattice and according to even or odd parity in frequency we find that a reasonably strong instability occurs only for even frequency pairing with d-wavelike symmetry. The corresponding transition temperature T_c is where t is the nearest-neighbor hopping integral. The underlying effective interaction consists of an attractive, instantaneous term and a retarded term due to charge and spin fluctuations. The latter is weakly attractive at low frequencies below ,strongly repulsive up to and attractive towards even higher energies. T_c increases with decreasing doping until a d-wavelike bond-order wave instability is encountered near optimal doping at for J=0.3. T_c is essentially linear in J and rather insensitive to an additional second-nearest neighbor hopping integral t'. A rather striking property of T_c is that it is hardly affected by the soft mode associated with the bond-order wave instability or by the Van Hove singularity in the case with second-nearest neighbor hopping. This unique feature reflects the fact that the solution of the gap equation involves momenta far away from the Fermi surface (due to the instantaneous term) and many frequencies (due to the retarded term) so that singular properties in momentum or frequency are averaged out very effectively.

Iron doping effect on superconducting properties of MgB2

Iron-doped MgB₂ bulks are prepared by hybridized diffusion method using nano-powder and macro-powder of pure iron as iron source. The doping effect on superconductivity transition temperature, T_c, and critical current J_c have been investigated. It is found that both T_c and J_c of MgB₂ show quite different features depending on the particle size of the dopant powders. It is demonstrated that different from iron bulk or large size powders, iron nano-powders are active dopant for MgB₂ which suppresses both T_c and J_c of MgB₂.     

Phase diagram of the Ising square lattice with competing interactions

We restudy the phase diagram of the 2D-Ising model with competing interactions J₁ on nearest neighbour and J₂ on next-nearest neighbour bonds via Monte-Carlo simulations. We present the finite temperature phase diagram and introduce computational methods which allow us to calculate transition temperatures close to the criticalpoint at J₂ = J₁/2. Further on we investigate the character of the different phase boundariesand find that the transition is weakly first order formoderate J₂ > J₁/2.     

Correlations in inhomogeneous Ising models

Using general methods developed in a previous treatment we study correlations in inhomogeneous Ising models on a square lattice. The nearest neighbour couplings can vary both in strength and sign such that the coupling distribution is translationally invariant in diagonal direction. We calculate correlations parallel to the layering in the diagonally layered model with periodv=2, the so-called “general square lattice” model (GS). If the model has a finite critical temperature,T _c>0, we have a spontaneous magnetization belowT _c vanishing atT _c with the Ising exponent β=1/8. AtT _c correlations decay algebraically with critical exponnet η=1/4 and exponentially forT>T _c. In the frustrated case we have oscillatory behaviour superposed on the exponential decay where the wavevector of the oscillations changes at some “disorder temperature”T _D(>T _c) from commensurate to temperature-dependent in commensurate periods. If the critical temperature vanishes,T _c=0 we always have exponential decay at finite temperatures, while atT=T _c=0 we encounter either long-range order or algebraic decay with critical index η=1/2, i.e.T=0 is thus a critical point.     

Different types of vortex pinning contribution to critical current density in YBa2Cu3O7−δ /YSZ quasi-multilayer

The quasi-multilayer films of YBa₂Cu₃O_7−δ /YSZ (YSZ denotes Yttria Stabilized Zirconia) are prepared by means of pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and a systematic study of the magnetic-field and temperature dependence of the critical current density J _c(H,T) for the YBCO/YSZ quasi-multilayer film is presented. Angular-dependent J _c(H,T) measurements have demonstrated that the growth control strategy is very effective in preventing the vortex motion at high fields and high temperatures. The temperature dependence of isotropic and anisotropic contribution to J _c is investigated in order to evaluate the strength of the defects. It is suggested that at high applied fields (such as 7 T), the pinning contribution of the YBCO/YSZ quasi-multilayer is dominated by the anisotropic disorders, while at intermediate-low fields (such as 1 and 3 T) the pinning contribution is determined by both isotropic and anisotropic disorders.     

Effects of neutron irradiation on superconducting properties of orthorhombic Y–Ba–Cu oxides

Abstract

We have studied the effects of fast neutron (E>0.1 MeV) irradiation at reactor (～ 360 K) and low (～ 20 K) temperatures on the superconducting properties of polycrystalline orthorhombic YBa₂Cu₃O_7?y . Measurements were made on the superconducting critical temperature T_c , critical current J_c , Meissner effect and magnetic field dependence of J_c . The T_c drops by an irradiation at reactor temperature and J_c increases with increasing fluence. On the other hand with the irradiation at low temperature, T_c rises and J_c increases. Results of observation of Meissner effect and the magnetic field dependence of J_c are consistent with the behavior of T_c and J_c .     

MgB2 coated superconducting tapes with high critical current densities fabricated by hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition

The MgB₂ coated superconducting tapes have been fabricated on textured Cu (0 0 1) and polycrystalline Hastelloy tapes using coated conductor technique, which has been developed for the second generation high temperature superconducting wires. The MgB₂/Cu tapes were fabricated over a wide temperature range of 460-520 °C by using hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition (HPCVD) technique. The tapes exhibited the critical temperatures (T_c) ranging between 36 and 38 K with superconducting transition width (ΔT_c) of about 0.3-0.6 K. The highest critical current density (J_c) of 1.34 × 10⁵ A/cm² at 5 K under 3 T is obtained for the MgB₂/Cu tape grown at 460 °C. To further improve the flux pinning property of MgB₂ tapes, SiC is coated as an impurity layer on the Cu tape. In contrast to pure MgB₂/Cu tapes, the MgB₂ on SiC-coated Cu tapes exhibited opposite trend in the dependence of J_c with growth temperature. The improved flux pinning by the additional defects created by SiC-impurity layer along with the MgB₂ grain boundaries lead to strong improvement in J_c for the MgB₂/SiC/Cu tapes. The MgB₂/Hastelloy superconducting tapes fabricated at a temperature of 520 °C showed the critical temperatures ranging between 38.5 and 39.6 K. We obtained much higher J_c values over the wide field range for MgB₂/Hastelloy tapes than the previously reported data on other metallic substrates, such as Cu, SS, and Nb. The J_c values of J_c(20 K, 0 T) ∼5.8 × 10⁶ A/cm² and J_c(20 K, 1.5 T) ∼2.4 × 10⁵ A/cm² is obtained for the 2-μm-thick MgB₂/Hastelloy tape. This paper will review the merits of coated conductor approach along with the HPCVD technique to fabricate MgB₂ conductors with high T_c and J_c values which are useful for large scale applications.     

Effect of annealing temperature on some physical properties of MgB2 by using the Hall probe ac-susceptibility method

A commercially available powder of MgB₂ is used as starting material for the examination of the influence of the annealing temperature on the properties of this intermediate-T_c superconductor. We performed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Hall ac-susceptibility measurements as a function of temperature and ac-field amplitude on samples annealed at 650, 750, 850 and 950 °C. The imaginary part of ac-susceptibility measurements is used to calculate both the inter-granular critical current density, J_c(T_p) and density of pinning force, α_j(0). It was observed that all T_c, J_c(T_p) and α_j(0) exhibit a non-monotonic behavior on the annealing temperature range studied in this work. T_c is measured to be 39.85±0.02 K and J_c(T_p) is estimated to be as high as 60 A/cm² at 39.2 K for the sample annealed at 850 °C. The peak temperature, T_p, in the imaginary part of the ac-susceptibility curves shifts to lower temperatures with both decreasing the annealing temperature and increasing the amplitude of the ac-magnetic fields. A comparison of the experimental ac-susceptibility data with theoretical critical-state models that are currently available is performed. SEM investigations showed that the grain size increases, and the grain connectivity improves when the annealing temperature increases up to 850 °C. The possible reasons for the observed changes in transport, microstructure and magnetic properties due to annealing temperature are discussed.
