The barium strontium titanate ceramics Ba1 − xSrxTiO3 with a spatially variable composition has been prepared according to the thick film technology (tape casting). The strontium
content over the film thickness is varied from 0 to 30 mol %. The structure and polarization characteristics of the samples
prepared have been investigated. It has been found that the polarization characteristics of multilayer structures are determined
by the ratio between the thicknesses of layers with different compositions and by their properties. No shift of the hysteresis
loops in the graded thick Ba1 − xSrxTiO3 (x = 0–0.3) films has been revealed. The results obtained have been analyzed in the framework of modern theoretical approaches. 相似文献
The structure of high-temperature SrFe1 − xMoxO3 − z (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) phases was studied. Such studies are necessary to understand the mechanism of oxygen transport in membrane materials
used for high-temperature oxygen separation. 相似文献
The magnetostriction of FexMn1 − xS (x = 0.27) single crystals in strong magnetic fields up to 120 kOe has been investigated. It has been found that the magnetostriction
reaches colossal values (±3 × 10−4) atypical of compounds of 3d elements. It has been found that the magnetostriction changes sign when varying temperature and magnetic field; this behavior
indicates an important role of the spin-phonon interactions in the formation of the magnetic order in solid solutions of iron-manganese
sulfides. 相似文献
The strain, the thermal expansion coefficient, and the permittivity of ceramic samples of (Ba1 − xBi2x/3)TiO3 solid solutions with x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, and 0.05 have been studied in the temperature range 120–700 K. Based on an analysis of the results, the
temperature-composition phase diagram has been refined, and the temperature dependence of the polarization has been calculated. 相似文献
Charge density calculations and electronic band structures for GaxAl1 − xSb with x = 1.0, 0.5 and 0.0 are presented in this work. The calculations are performed using the empirical pseudopotential method.
The charge density is computed for a number of planes, i.e. z = 0.0, 0.125 and 0.25 A0 by generating the potential through a number of potential parameters available in the literature. The virtual crystal approximation
was applied for the semiconducting alloy. The characteristics of the band structure and charge density are observed to be
affected by the potential parameters. Calculated band gaps and the nature of gaps are in good agreement with the experimental
data reported. The ionicity is also reasonably in good agreement with other scales proposed in the literature; however the
formulation needs to be improved. The present work also demands indirect experimental band gap for the alloy.

Results of an experimental study of MnS, FeS, and FexMn1?xS single crystals are presented. The phase composition, the lattice parameters, and the state of paramagnetic ions in FexMn1?xS have been determined by x-ray diffraction analysis and Mössbauer spectroscopy. A sequence of transitions have been found in iron manganese sulfide with x = 0.29 at temperatures T1 ≈ 25–50 K, T2 ≈ 125 K, and T3 ≈ 190 K with a change in kinetic properties and the formation of a metallic state at low temperatures T ≈ 2 K. The possibility of a Mott-Hubbard transition in FexMn1?xS sulfides with variation of the composition and the temperature is discussed. 相似文献
The results of experimental investigation of magnetic and electric properties of Fe1?xDyxSi crystals are reported. It is shown that the magnitude and position of the anomaly observed in the temperature dependences of magnetization are controlled to a considerable extent by the external magnetic field. It is found that the introduction of Dy ions leads to a weak magnetoresistive effect. 相似文献
The electronic structure and ground state parameters of B2 RuAl-based refractory alloys have been investigated in the framework of the density functional theory using the exact muffin-tin
orbital method in combination with the coherent potential approximation. It has been demonstrated that the number of states
at the Fermi level for the Ru1 − xMexAl alloys as a function of the alloying metal content has a minimum, which indicates a change in the Fermi surface topology
and the presence of specific features in the behavior of elastic constants. It has been concluded that the electronic structure
of the alloys can be described in terms of the rigid band model. The nonlinear variations of the lattice parameters of the
alloys has been explained. 相似文献
The structural, magnetic, and electrotransport properties of La1?xSrxMnO3? x/2(0≤x≤0.30) manganites with perovskite structure are investigated experimentally as a function of oxygen deficiency. In the solid solutions La1?xSrxMnO3, a change in the type of symmetry of the unit cell is observed at x=0.125. Samples with x≤0.125 are characterized by an O′-orthorhombic unit cell, whereas samples with x>0.125 are characterized by a rhombohedral unit cell. The structural properties of the anion-deficient solid solutions La1?xSrxMnO3?x/2 are analogous to those of the stoichiometric system. It is assumed that, as the oxygen content decreases, La1? xSrxMnO3?x/2 anion-deficient solid solutions experience a series of successive magnetic phase transformations in the ground state: from an A-type (x=0) antiferromagnet to a cluster spin-glass-type inhomogeneous magnetic state (0.175>x≤0.30) through a two-phase (antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic) state (0>x≤0.175). The anion-deficient solid solution with x=0.175 has the maximal value of the ferromagnetic component. As the oxygen deficiency increases, the resistivity of La1? xSrxMnO3?x/2 samples first decreases (up to a value of x=0.175), acquiring an activation character, and then increases (up to a value of x=0.30). In this case, none of the anion-deficient solid solutions exhibits a metal-semiconductor transition in the whole range of concentrations considered. A peak of magnetoresistance at a temperature below the point of magnetic ordering is observed only in the sample with x=0.175. The results of experiments carried out with a series of La1?xSrxMnO3?x/2 anion-deficient solid solutions are summarized in the concentration diagrams of the spontaneous magnetic moment and the critical temperature of magnetic phase transitions. Hypothetical magnetic phase states are pointed out. The experimental results obtained can be interpreted in terms of the phase-separation model and the competition between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic indirect superex-change interactions. It is assumed that Mn3+-O-Mn3+ indirect superexchange interactions in the orbitally disordered phase are positive in the case of octahedral coordination of manganese ions and are negative when the coordination of at least one Mn3+ ion is pentahedral. 相似文献
Previously, iron—silicon alloys were investigated using X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. It was demonstrated that, at low silicon concentrations, the alloys undergo a local separation into regions of the α iron phase depleted in silicon and silicon-rich clusters with a B2 ordering. The structure of locally ordered regions of the B2 phase is characterized by a pair ordering of silicon atoms: the Si—Si pairs are formed by next-nearest neighbors, and the axes of pairs are oriented along the 〈100〉 directions, which are the easy-magnetization axes. The thermomagnetic treatment in a constant magnetic field applied along the 〈100〉 axis induces an axial magnetic anisotropy, results in the formation of an anisotropic distribution of the B2 phase, and leads to a slight decrease in the volume fraction of the coordination 6: 2 with two silicon atoms in the first coordination shell of the iron atom. Therefore, the formation of an anisotropic local order of pairs of silicon atoms occurs as a result of their reorientation. 相似文献
Thin films of (Pb1−xSrx)TiO3, x=0,0.5,1.0 have been prepared on glass substrates by the chemical-solution method using the spin-coating technique. The optical
nonlinearity in the visible spectral region is investigated using short (5 ns) laser pulses at the off-resonant wavelength
of 532 nm employing the open aperture z-scan technique. It is found that the third order nonlinear absorption is dependent
on the lead content of the films, with the compositions x=0, 0.5 exhibiting large values (β∼10−7 m/W), thereby suggesting the possible use of these materials as optical limiters. No optical nonlinearity is observed for
the composition with x=1.0. 相似文献
Nano-octahedra of cobalt ferrite CoxFe3???xO4 (1?≤?x?<?2), with a broad size distribution around 15–20 nm, were synthesized by a hydrothermal method using nitrates as precursors. For the first time, single-phased nano-octahedra of cobalt-rich ferrite CoxFe3???xO4 (x?=?1.5) were synthesized. The nano-octahedra are crystallized in a normal spinel structure, with tetrahedral sites occupied by Co2+. This specific octahedral shape was obtained with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants. The nature of the surfactant influenced the chemical composition of the powder and the size of the nano-octahedra. The {100} truncation of the octahedra is more pronounced for the small particles. For the first time, single-phased nanoparticles with as much as x?=?1.8 cobalt were synthesized with ethylene glycol as solvent. These nanoparticles, around 8 nm in size, have no specific shape and possess a lacunar spinel structure similar to maghemite. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectroscopy.
Cu–Ni fcc alloy nanoparticles (NPs) of tunable atomic ratios were generated in SiO2 films. The films were prepared using the Cu(NO3)2 and Ni(NO3)2 co-doped inorganic–organic hybrid silica sols by single dipping. Transparent, crack-free, glassy SiO2 films of 310 ± 10 nm in thickness embedded with high mol percent of Cu–Ni alloy NPs were yielded after annealing at 750 °C
in 10% H2-90% Ar atmosphere. Nominal compositions of the films were 20 mol% (Cu–Ni)-80 mol% SiO2. Optical spectral study of the heat-treated films showed disappearance of Cu plasmon bands due to Cu–Ni alloy formation.
Grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD) studies revealed the formation of Cu–Ni alloy (2:1, 1:1 and 1:2) NPs inside the
SiO2 film. GIXRD showed a systematic shifting of the diffraction peaks with respect to the fcc Cu–Ni alloy composition, maintaining
the nominal ratios. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies of the representative Cu0.5Ni0.5-doped film showed existence of homogeneously dispersed Cu–Ni alloy NPs of average size 6.35 nm inside the SiO2 matrix. The energy dispersive X-ray scattering (EDX) analysis of the individual NPs using the nano-probe (scanning TEM mode)
confirmed the presence of both the Cu and Ni with the desired atomic ratio. 相似文献
The temperature dependence of the conductivity of the two-dimensional hole gas in an asymmetric GaAs/InxGa1 ? xAs/GaAs quantum well has been investigated. It is shown that fast spin relaxation leads to metallic-like behavior of the temperature dependence of the conductivity. 相似文献
The isothermal changes in the magnetic entropy and the lattice entropy and the adiabatic temperature change in La(Fe0.88Si0.12)13 and La(Fe0.86Si0.14)13 ferromagnets in a magnetic field are calculated. The calculations are performed with a generalized magnetostriction model
of a ferromagnet; the calculation results are compared to experimental data. It is shown that the change in the lattice entropy
decreases the magnetocaloric effect and makes it possible to explain the experimental data obtained for La(FexSi1 − x)13 (x = 0.86, 0.88) ferromagnets. The temperature dependences of the bulk compression moduli of these ferromagnets are calculated,
and these dependences indicate a strong lattice softening in the vicinity of the magnetic phase transition in them. The thermal
expansion coefficient and some magnetic properties of the ferromagnet with x = 0.86 are measured to determine the numerical values of the parameters entering into calculation formulas. 相似文献
The recent demonstration of thermal conductivity of rough electrolessly etched Si nanowire (Hochbaum et al., Nature, 451:163,
2008) attracted a lot of interest, because it could not be explained by the existing theory; thermal conductivity of rough Si
nanowires falls below the boundary scattering of the thermal conductivity. However, nanoscale pores presented in the nanowires
(Hochbaum et al., Nano Letters, 9:3550–3554, 2009) hinder one to be fully convinced that the surface roughness solely made a contribution to the significant reduction in thermal
conductivity. In this study, we synthesized vapor–liquid–solid (VLS) grown rough Si1−xGex nanowire and measured and theoretically simulated thermal conductivity of the nanowire. The thermal conductivity of rough
Si0.96Ge0.04 nanowire is an order of magnitude lower than that of bulk Si0.96Ge0.04 and around a factor of four times lower than that of smooth Si0.96Ge0.04 nanowire. This significant reduction could be explained by the fact that the surface roughness scatters medium-wavelength
phonons, whereas the long-wavelength phonons are scattered by phonon boundary scattering, and the short-wavelength phonons
are scattered by alloy scattering. 相似文献
The thermodynamic and magnetic properties of the La1 − xPbxMnO3 (0.24 ≤ x ≤ 0.40) solid solution system were investigated in the temperature range of 4.2–340 K. All objects were ferromagnetics with
Curie temperature TC ≈ 320–340 K, which slowly increased with x. The M(T) behavior in the magnetic ordering region indicated a nonuniform ground state, due possibly to the competition of ferromagnetic
and antiferromagnetic interactions. The increase in the saturation magnetic moment with x can be described by a simple model of the binary bonds in La1 − xPbxMnO3. 相似文献
The structures of Y2Fe17−xCrx are simulated by theab initio potentials. The site preference of Cr atom in Y2Fe17 is evaluated and the order is determined as 4f, 12j, which is close to the experimental result. Based on the site preference
behavior, the calculated parameters and the atom sites of Y-Fe-Cr system are studied. The result corresponds well to observed
data. Further, the DOS of the relaxed structures are calculated and the variation in Curie temperature is explained qualitatively
by the spin-fluctuation theory. 相似文献
To clarify the origin of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) observed in La1?xAxMnO3 (A2+=Sr2+, Pb2+, Ba2+ and Ca2+), we have investigated theoretically the electrical resistivity ρ of carriers in the background of Mn spins which interact with each other through the double exchange interaction. It has been found that extraordinarily large pin fluctuations caused by the instability of the ferromagnetic state are responsible for the transport anomalies including the GMR. 相似文献
In this paper we report the effect of Pb incorporation in the dielectric properties of a-Se75In25 glassy alloy. The temperature and frequency dependence of the dielectric constants and the dielectric losses in glassy Se75In25−xPbx (x = 0, 5, 10 and 15) alloys in the frequency range (1 kHz-5 MHz) and temperature range (300–340 K) have been measured. A detailed
analysis shows that the dielectric losses are dipolar in nature and can be understood in terms of hopping of charge carriers
over a potential barrier as suggested by Elliott for the case of chalcogenide glasses. It has been found that both dielectric
constant and the dielectric loss are highly dependent on frequency and temperature and also found to increase with increasing
concentration of Pb in binary a-Se75In25 glassy system. The results have been interpreted in terms of increase in the density of defect states by the incorporation
of Pb as a metallic additive in the aforesaid glassy system. 相似文献
