Synthesis,structure, optical,and electric properties of Ce-doped CuInTe_2 compound

Ce-doped Cu In Te2（CICT） semiconducting compounds are successfully synthesized. The phase structures, optical,and electric properties are investigated using powder X-ray diffraction（XRD）, field emission scanning electron microscopy（FESEM）, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer（XPS）, Raman spectrometer, ultraviolet and visible spectrophotometer（UVVis）, and a standard four-probe method. Cu In1-xCex Te2 crystallizes into a tetragonal structure with predominant orientation along the [112] direction. The lattice parameters are a = 6.190（6） A–6.193（0） A and c = 12.406（5） A–12.409（5） A. Ce prefers to occupy the 4b crystal position. According to the analysis of XPS spectra, Ce shows the mixture of valences 4＋and 3＋. Raman spectra reveal that the photon vibrating model in the CICT follows A1 mode in a wavenumber range of123 cm^-1–128 cm^-1. UV-Vis spectra show that the band gap Eg values before and after 0.1 mole Ce doped into Cu In Te2 are 1.28 e V and 1.16 e V, respectively. It might be due to the mixture of valences for Ce. Ce doped into Cu In Te2 still shows the semiconductor characteristics.     

First-Principles Study of Electronic Structure of the Laves Phase ZrFe2

We perform the ab initio calculation for obtaining the density of states and magnetic properties of ZrFe2 Laves phase compound based on the method of augmented plane waves plus local orbital The results indicate that the ferromagnetic state is more stable than the paramagnetic one, but with a slightly larger volume. The 3d - 4d exchange interactions between Fe and Zr electrons lead to the antiparallel coupling for Fe 3d and Zr 4d states, which is responsible for the ferrimagnetic ordering of the compound. The resulting magnetic moment of about 1.98μB for Fe is spatially localized near the Fe site, while around Zr a small but extended negative spin states causes a moment of about -0.44 μB. Moreover, the resulting magnetic moments with the generalized gradient approximation are more consistent with experimental values than that of the local-spin density approximation.     

Magnetic domain structures of precipitation-hardened SmCo 2：17-type sintered magnets： Heat treatment effect

The typical magnetic domains of Sm（CObalFe0.25Cuo.07Zr0.02）7.4 magnets quenched through various heattreatment steps have been revealed by using magnetic force microscopy （MFM）. For the specimens in which the nominal c-axis is perpendicular to the imaging plane, the domain configurations change from plate-like for the as-sintered magnet to corrugation and spike-like for the homogenized one, and then to a coarse and finally to a finer domain structure when isothermally aged at 830℃ and then annealed at 400℃. However, only plate-like domains can be detected on the surfaces with the nominal c-axis parallel to the imaging plane. The finer domain （so-called interaction domain） is a characteristic magnetic domain pattern of the SmCo 2：IT-type magnets with high coercivities. Domain walls in a zigzag shape are revealed by means of MFM in final bulk SraCo 2：17-type sintered magnets.

Exchange Coupling and Stability of SmCo7-xHfx

Electronic structure of SmCo7-xHfx compound is calculated by using the multi-scattering Xα method. It is shown that a few of electrons can transfer to the Sm 5d orbital due to orbital hybridization between Sm and Co atoms. The 3d-5d coupling is stronger, which is the main reason to result in the long-range ferromagnetic order between Sm and Co atoms in SmCo7-xHfx. According to the Stoner criterion, the result of spin-unpolarized calculation for the Sm5Co32Hf2 duster could lead to a better understanding of why the ferromagnetic SmCo7-xHfx is a stable phase. For the Sm5Co32Hf2 duster the Fermi level is situated at the overall maximum of the density of states. Moreover the duster wavefunctions at EF are antibonding and hence highly localized in real space, which would lead to a large value for the duster Stoner integral. Thus a rationalization for the magnetic stability of SmCo7-xHfx has been obtained.

纳米复合永磁材料的有效各向异性与矫顽力

研究了纳米Nd2Fe14B/α-Fe复合永磁材料中晶粒交换耦合相互作用对有效各向异性的影响和变化规律.结果表明：晶粒之间的交换耦合作用使材料的有效各向异性Keff随晶粒尺寸的减小而下降、随软磁性相成分的增加而降低. 当晶粒尺寸 减小到4nm时，Keff值减小为其各自通常各向异性常数值的1/3—1/4.有效各向异性的变化特点与矫顽力的变化规律基本相同.纳米复合永磁材料矫顽力的降低主要由于有效各向异性的减小而引起. 关键词： 纳米复合永磁材料 交换耦合相互作用 有效各向异性 矫顽力
