Erratum to: Multiple magnetic transitions in single crystals of Ce12Fe57.5As41and La12Fe57.5As41

Commercial computers based on electronic logic devices have brought great changes to the world. However, traditional electronic devices are suffering from numerous technical challenges in their attempts to continue to satisfy Moore's law. Alloptical logic devices, as promising successors to their electronic counterparts, have become a major focus of optics research. In this paper, we provide a review of current all-optical logic devices. The logic gates in these devices, which are described in the first part of the review, are divided into five categories based on the different principles used in their realization. Complex optical devices with various functions and reconfigurable devices are summarized in the next section. In the final part of this paper, we discuss some of the previous works on all-optical integrated chips with specific functions. This review will provide a complete technological roadmap for all-optical devices and aims to be helpful in possible future developments in this growing field.     

Multiple magnetic transitions in single crystals of Ce<Subscript>12</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>57.5</Subscript>As<Subscript>41</Subscript> and La<Subscript>12</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>57.5</Subscript>As<Subscript>41</Subscript>

Measurements of magnetic and transport properties were performed on needle-shaped single crystals of Ce₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁ and La₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁. The availability of a complete set of data enabled a side-by-side comparison between these two rare earth compounds. Both compounds exhibited multiple magnetic orders within 2–300 K and metamagnetic transitions at various fields. Ferromagnetic transitions with Curie temperatures of 100 and 125 K were found for Ce₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁ and La₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁, respectively, followed by antiferromagnetic type spin reorientations near Curie temperatures. The magnetic properties underwent complex evolution in the magnetic field for both compounds. An antiferromagnetic phase transition at about 60 K and 0.2 T was observed merely for Ce₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁. The field-induced magnetic phase transition occurred from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic structure. A strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy was evident from magnetization measurements of Ce₁₂Fe_57.5As₄₁. A temperature-field phase diagram was present for these two rare earth systems. In addition, a logarithmic temperature dependence of electrical resistivity was observed in the two compounds within a large temperature range of 150–300 K, which is rarely found in 3D-based compounds. It may be related to Kondo scattering described by independent localized Fe 3d moments interacting with conduction electrons.     

Low temperature specific heat of 12442-type KCa_2Fe_4As_4F_2 single crystals

Low-temperature specific heat(SH) is measured for the 12442-type KCa_2Fe_4As_4F_2 single crystal under different magnetic fields.A clear SH jump with the height of ?C/T|_(T_c)= 130 mJ mol~(-1) K~(-2) is observed at the superconducting transition temperature T_c.It is found that the electronic SH coefficient ?γ(H) quickly increases when the field is in the low-field region below 3T and then considerably slows down the increase with a further increase in the field, which indicates a rather strong anisotropy or multi-gap feature with a small minimum in the superconducting gap(s). The temperature-dependent SH data indicate the presence of the T~2 term, which supplies further information and supports the picture with a line-nodal gap structure. Moreover, the onset point of the SH transition remains almost unchanged under the field as high as 9 T, which is similar to that observed in cuprates, and places this system in the middle between the BCS limit and the Bose-Einstein condensation.     

Metamagnetic transitions and anomalous magnetoresistance in EuAg_4As_2 crystals

In this work,we systematically studied the magnetic and transport properties of EuAg4As2 single crystals.It was found that the two antiferromagnetic transitions(TN1=10 K and TN2=15 K)were driven to lower temperatures by an applied magnetic field.Below TN1,two successive metamagnetic transitions were observed when a magnetic field was applied in the ab plane(H//abplane).For both H//ab and H//c,EuAg4As2 showed a positive,unexpectedly large magnetoresistance(up to 202%)in lower magnetic fields below TN1,and a large negative magnetoresistance(up to-78%)at high fields/intermediate temperatures,thus presenting potential applications in magnetic sensors.Finally,the magnetic phase diagrams of EuAg4As2 were constructed for both H//ab and H//c using the resistivity and magnetisation data.     

Low temperature specific heat in BaFe_(1.9)Ni_(0.1)As_2 single crystals

Low-temperature specific heat was measured on the BaFe1.9Ni0.1As2 single crystals with critical transition temperature Tc = 20.1 K.A clear specific heat jump with the value ΔC/T|Tc ≈ 23 mJ/mol K2 was observed.In addition,a roughly linear magnetic field dependence of the electronic specific heat coefficient Δγ(H) was found in the zero-temperature limit,suggesting that at least one Fermi pocket,probably the hole derivative one,was fully gapped with a small anisotropy in the present sample.A slight curvature of the curve Δγ(H) may suggest a complex gap structure(anisotropic gap or nodes) at other Fermi surfaces.

Magnetism and superconductivity in Eu(Fe_(1-x)Ni_x)As_2(x= 0,0.04)

We report Eu-local-spin magnetism and Ni-doping-induced superconductivity(SC)in a 112-type ferroarsenide system Eu(Fe_(1-x)Ni_x)As_2.The non-doped EuFeAs_2exhibits two primary magnetic transitions at ~100 and ~40 K,probably associated with a spin-density-wave(SDW)transition and an antiferromagnetic ordering in the Fe and Eu sublattices,respectively.Two additional successive transitions possibly related to Eu-spin modulations appear at 15.5 and 6.5 K.For the Ni-doped sample with x=0.04,the SDW transition disappears,and SC emerges at T_c=17.5 K.The Eu-spin ordering remains at around 40 K,followed by the possible reentrant magnetic modulations with enhanced spin canting.Consequently,SC coexists with a weak spontaneous magnetization below 6.2 K in Eu(Fe_(0.96)Ni_(0.04))As_2,which provides a complementary playground for the study of the interplay between SC and magnetism.     

Magnetostructural phase transitions in manganese arsenide single crystals

The effect of an external magnetic field with a strength up to 140 kOe on the phase transitions in manganese arsenide single crystals has been investigated. The existence of unstable magnetic and crystal structures at temperatures above the Curie temperature T _C = 308 K has been established. The displacements of manganese and arsenic atoms during the magnetostructural phase transition and the shift in the temperature of the first-order magnetostructural phase transition in a magnetic field have been determined. It has been shown that the magnetocaloric effect in a magnetic field of 140 kOe near the Curie temperature T _C is equal to ??T ?? 13 K. A model of the superparamagnetic state in MnAs above the temperature T _C has been proposed using the data on the magnetic properties and structural transformation in the region of the first-order magnetostructural phase transition. It has been demonstrated that, at temperatures close to T _C, apart from the contribution to the change in the entropy from the change in the magnetization there is a significant contribution from the transformation of the crystal lattice due to the magnetostructural phase transition.     

Superconducting anisotropy and vortex pinning in CaKFe_4As_4 and KCa_2Fe_4As_4F_2

The vortex pinning determining the current carrying capacity of a superconductor is an important property to the applications of superconducting materials.For layered superconductors,the vortex pinning can be enhanced by a strong interlayer interaction in accompany with a suppression of superconducting anisotropy,which remains to be investigated in iron based superconductors(FeSCs)with the layered structure.Here,based on the transport and magnetic torque measurements,we experimentally investigate the vortex pinning in two bilayer FeSCs,CaKFe₄As₄(Fe1144)and KCa₂Fe₄As4F₂(Fe12442),and compare their superconducting anisotropyγ.While the anisotropyγ≈3 for Fe1144 is much smaller thanγ≈15 in Fe12442 around Tc,a higher flux pinning energy as evidenced by a higher critical current density is found in Fe1144,as compared with the case of Fe12442.In combination with the literature data of Ba_0.72K_0.28Fe2As₂ and Nd Fe As_O0.82F_0.18,we reveal an anti-correlation between the pinning energy and the superconducting anisotropy in these Fe SCs.Our results thus suggest that the interlayer interaction can not be neglected when considering the vortex pinning in Fe SCs.     

Vibrationally induced electronic transitions in crystals of magnetic compounds

A simple model is proposed for the spin-dependent infrared absorption band observed in antiferromagnetic NiO crystals. The transition is attributed to the coupled action of the radiation field with the lattice vibrations. The variation of the exchange parameter due to the electric field and the displacement of the ions is taken as the perturbation giving rise to the electric dipole transition between different spin states accompanying the change in the vibrational states. The molecular field approximation is adopted to describe the spin states. The general features of the spectral pattern and its temperature dependence thus obtained are in good agreement with the experiments byNewman andChrenko.     

Magnetocaloric effect, magnetic domain structure and spin-reorientation transitions in HoCo5 single crystals

A study on the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) has been carried out on the HoCo₅ single crystal using a direct method in the temperature range 78-300 K and in a magnetic field of 1.3 T at various orientations of the single crystal with respect to the direction of external magnetic field. Our research has shown that magnetic anisotropy strongly affects magnitude and sign of the MCE in the regions of spin-reorientation phase transitions. In addition, the magnetic domain structure of the HoCo₅ single crystal in (0 0 1) plane in the temperature range from room temperature down to 4.2 K was investigated.

Multiple metamagnetic transitions in the magnetic refrigerant La(Fe,Si)13Hx

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on thermally and field-induced first-order magnetic phase transitions is studied in the La(Fe,Si)_(13)-type compounds. A peculiar series of consecutive field-induced transitions is realized using a distinct combination of hydrostatic pressure and negative pressure created by the interstitial insertion of hydrogen. The pressure-induced discontinuous magnetization jumps result in an enhanced cooling power, thus opening up the possibility to exploit in full the magnetocaloric potential of this compound class.     

Ab initio molecular dynamics study on the local structures in Ce_(70)Al_(30) and La_(70)Al_(30) metallic glasses

Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investigate the effect of similar elements on the shortto medium-range atomic packing features in Ce_(70)Al_(30) and La_(70)Al_(30) glass-forming alloys. 4 f electrons of Ce element in Ce_(70)Al_(30) alloy were properly treated in electronic calculations. The local atomic structures in both alloys are qualitatively similar. However, the local environments of Al atoms in Ce_(70)Al_(30) alloy show fluctuation with temperature in the cooling process, which could result from 4 f electrons of Ce elements. Surprisingly, the medium-range atomic packing features of Al atoms in both MGs are quite different, although Ce and La elements are similar. These findings are useful for understanding the enhanced glass-forming ability by similar element substitution in RE-based MGs from a medium-range structure perspective.     

In-plane optical spectral weight redistribution in the optimally doped Ba_(0.6)K_(0.4)Fe_2As_2 superconductor

We performed detailed temperature-dependent optical measurements on optimally doped Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 single crystal, We examine the changes of the in-plane optical conductivity spectral weight in the normal state and the evolution of the superconducting condensate in the superconducting state. In the normal state, the low-frequency spectral weight shows a metallic response with an arctan （T） dependence, indicating a T-linear scattering rate behavior for the carriers. A high energy spectral weight transfer associated with the Hund＇s coupling occurs from the low frequencies below 4000 cm^-1 5000 cm^-1 to higher frequencies up to at least 104 cm^-1. Its temperature dependence analysis suggests that the Hund＇s coupling strength is continuously enhanced as the temperature is reduced. In the superconducting state, the FGT sum rule is conserved according to the spectral weight estimation within the conduction bands, only about 40% of the conduction bands participates in the superconducting condensate indicating that Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 is in dirty limit.     

Temperature-induced magnetic phase transitions in crystals with competing single-ion and interionic magnetic anisotropies

Temperature-induced phase transitions in a uniaxial ferromagnetic system of spins S = 1 with competing one-particle and two-particle anisotropies are studied. It is shown that, in the case where easy-plane single-ion anisotropy dominates over easy-axis two-particle anisotropy, the transition from the paramagnetic state to a ferromagnetic state with magnetization perpendicular to the anisotropy axis is a second-order displacive magnetic phase transition. In the opposite case, where two-particle anisotropy dominates over single-particle anisotropy, the transition to a ferromagnetic state with magnetization perpendicular to the anisotropy axis is also continuous but of the order-disorder type. In a system with competing second-order one-and two-particle anisotropies, the orientational first-order phase transition can occur to a state with the magnetization directed along or perpendicular to the anisotropy axis.     

Quenched Fe moment in the collapsed tetragonal phase of Ca_(1-x)Pr_x Fe_2As_2

We report 75As NMR studies on single crystals of rare-earth doped iron pnictide superconductor Ca1-xPrxFe2As2 . In both cases of x = 0.075, 0.15, a large increase of νq upon cooling is consistent with the tetragonal-collapsed tetragonal structure transition. A sharp drop of the Knight shift is also seen just below the structure transition, which suggests the quenching of Fe local magnetism, and therefore offers important understanding of the collapsed tetragonal phase. At even low temperatures, the 1/75T1 is enhanced and forms a peak at T ≈ 25 K, which may be caused by the magnetic ordering of the Pr3+ moments or spin dynamics of mobile domain walls.     

Magnetic properties and phase transitions in hexagonal DyMnO3 single crystals

DyMnO₃ single crystals of hexagonal modification were grown for the first time by zone melting, and their anisotropic magnetic properties were studied in detail. At T ～ 7 K, a small uncompensated magnetic moment (～1 μ_B per formula unit) is shown to occur along the hexagonal axis. At temperatures 7–45 K, a transition from the purely antiferromagnetic state to a state with uncompensated magnetic moment was revealed; the transition is induced by a magnetic field H parallel to the c axis. This transition seems to be due to a ferrimagnetic ordering of the moments of Dy cations located in nonequivalent crystallographic positions.
