Investigations on the cold-work peak of hydrogen in iron by means of the magnetic after-effect

The magnetic after-effect of hydrogen-charged iron was investigated in the temperature range between 77 and 200 K. The hydrogen cold-work peak, known so far only from internal friction measurements, has been observed at about 130 K together with a less pronounced relaxation peak at 80 K. The activation energy of ∼0.29 eV, determined for the cold-work peak, is explained by a thermally activated motion of dislocations, the cores of which are closely decorated by a condensed atmosphere of hydrogen atoms.     

Theoretical study of the fracture-induced magnetic effect in ferromagnetic materials

This paper presents a theoretical study of the recently reported fracture-induced magnetic effect, wherein just at the instant of tensile fracture of low carbon iron specimens a transient magnetic field is produced and the fractured pieces become magnetized. The analysis points towards a new ductile fracture characteristic in ferromagnetic materials, that the surface thin layer of the specimen at the instant of fracture behaves as a magnetic thin film with a Néel wall configuration through which the fracture occurs.     

A new ferromagnetic hysteresis model for soft magnetic composite materials

A new ferromagnetic hysteresis model for soft magnetic composite materials based on their specific properties is presented. The model relies on definition of new anhysteretic magnetization based on the Cauchy-Lorentz distribution describing the maximum energy state of magnetic moments in material. Specific properties of soft magnetic composite materials (SMC) such as the presence of the bonding material, different sizes and shapes of the Fe particles, level of homogeneity of the Fe particles at the end of the SMC product treatment, and achieved overall material density during compression, are incorporated in both the anhysteretic differential magnetization susceptibility and the irreversible differential magnetization susceptibility. Together they form the total differential magnetization susceptibility that defines the new ferromagnetic hysteresis model. Genetic algorithms are used to determine the optimal values of the proposed model parameters. The simulated results show good agreement with the measured results.

Theory of retardation of magnetic domain walls in rhombic magnetic materials

We calculate the retardation of a magnetic soliton describing a magnetic domain wall by using the generalized phenomenological theory of relaxation. We show that in this theory, based on the real dynamical symmetry of magnetic materials, the dissipation function has a different structure for high and low wall velocities. Finally, we calculate the viscous force of the wall in the Walker model and show that certain features, not discussed in the literature, emerge even when the generalized theory is applied to this simple model. In particular, the dependence of the viscous friction force on the wall velocity may be highly nonlinear and regions of unstable motion may appear. Zh. éksp. Teor.

Theory of the unconventional superconductivity in magnetic materials

Recent experimental observations of superconductivity in the presence of strong paramagnetism of lanthanide and actinide materials are theoretically analysed. The formation of superconducting electron pairs in the system of localized and delocalized electrons interacting through the Heisenberg exchange interaction is derived. Theoretical results show that the superconducting transition in the magnetic materials is due to the spin-triplet pairing of the electrons and exhibits the electronic analogy of the superfluid transition in³He.     

Negative refraction in ferromagnetic materials under external magnetic field: a theoretical analysis

We present a detailed theoretical analysis on the possibilities and conditions for negative permeability and negative refraction occuring in the magnetic materials with both pronounced magnetic and dielectric responses to electromagnetic waves. The results indicate that the permeability is always positive for $\de=(2q+0.5)\pi$ ($\de$ is the initial phase difference of magnetic components $h_{x}$ and $h_{y }$ of incident electromagnetic wave, $q$ is integer), which means that it is difficult to realize negative refraction. However, for $\de=2q\pi, \de=(2q+1)\pi$, or $\de=(2q-0.5)\pi$, the negative permeability occurs at some range of free procession frequency, which means that the refraction can become negative under certain conditions. Further analysis reveals that for general positive permittivity there are various opportunities for realizing the negative refraction provided that some requirements are met. One concludes also that the refractive index for $\de=2q\pi$ case is similar to $\de=(2q+1)\pi$. The only difference between two cases of $\de=2q\pi$ and $\de=(2q+1)\pi$ is that the $x$-direction for $\de=2q\pi$ corresponds to the $y$-direction for $\de=(2q+1)\pi$, and the $y$-direction for $\de=2q\pi$ corresponds to the $x$-direction for $\de=(2q+1)\pi$. The results are valuable for designing and analysing the complex negative refraction of magnetic materials.     

Magnetic monopoles in ferromagnetic materials

The interactions of slow $\text{(10}{}^{\mathrm{?5}}\text{? v/c ? 10}{}^{\mathrm{?2}}\text{)}$ magnetic monopoles with ferromagnetic materials are studied. The spin-flip cross section σ and the energy loss dE/dx are calculated for magnetic monopoles impinging parallel to the magnetization direction. In iron, these reach a maximum at v/c ～ 3 × 10^?4, where they take the value of 100 Ų and 100 MeV/cm respectively. The electromagnetic signal of a monopole passing through a ferromagnet and the generation of spin waves are discussed.

The impact of a magnetic field on ferromagnetic materials isolated using ultraviolet laser ablation

Laser ablation technology is used to isolate magnetic material to generate a local magnetic field effect. The impact of an induced magnetic field is enhanced by using the external magnetic field and can be widely employed to collect magnetic particles and position biomolecular in the bio-examination field. In addition, the magnetic field is affected and induced by the thermal stress produced after energy is exerted on the materials. Therefore, this study presents the phase of induced magnetic field (PIMF) of ferromagnetic film (Ni—1-μm thick) isolated using a 355-nm pulsed ultraviolet laser. In the experiment, three patterns comprising the following shapes and various isolated angle were designed for testing: hexagon (type I, 120°), L shape (type II, 90°), and cross shape (type III, 90°). The magnetic force microscopy image showed that when the isolating angle decreased, the PIMF increased, the value of which at the periphery of the corner of the type I and II patterns was ?3.96° and ?4.09°, respectively. In addition, by increasing the ablation time and residual thermal stress remaining in the material to increase the impact of the material’s properties when laser scanning speed was reduced from 1,000 to 500 mm/s, the PIMF value increased from ?4.09° to ?5.82°. The PIMF value of the type III pattern increased to ?9.87° because the residual thermal stress was twice that of the type II pattern. In the future, the experimental results can be used as a helpful reference for controlling magnetic particles in biomedical chips.     

Thermal diffusion of hydrogen in ferromagnetic materials

The thermal diffusion of hydrogen dissolved in a ferromagnetic material is investigated. It is shown that the coefficient of thermal diffusion changes when the material changes into the ferromagnetic state. The possibility of a change in the sign of the thermal diffusion flow when passing through the Curie point is discussed.

Nuclear magnetic resonance in ferromagnetic terbium

The temperature dependence of the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole hyperfine fields has been measured by NMR in ferromagnetic terbium metal. The results are in excellent agreement with a general theoretical relation connecting moments of the magnetization. This relation allows us to separate ionic and crystalline contributions to the nuclear electric field gradient.     

Bound ferromagnetic and paramagnetic polarons as an origin of the resistivity peak in ferromagnetic semiconductors and manganites

A theory of resistivity is developed for ferromagnetic semiconductors, possibly, including manganites. The theory is based on analysis of the interaction of the free and bound charge carriers with the magnetization of the crystal. The temperature dependence of free energy for nonionized donors and free electrons is calculated for the spin-wave and paramagnetic regions. In addition to the trapping by the ferromagnetic fluctuations (the ferromagnetic polarons), the electron trapping by the random magnetization fluctuations as T → is taken into account (the paramagnetic polarons). For the nondegenerate semiconductors, the theory makes it possible to explain a nonmonotonic temperature dependence of the activation energy, with the value for T = 0 being lower than that for T → ∞. For degenerate semiconductors, the theory explains a metal-insulator transition that occurs with increasing temperature in samples with relatively low charge carrier density. If the density is larger, a reentrant metal-insulator transition should take place, so that the crystal is highly conductive as T → ∞.     

Magneto-optical properties of metallic ferromagnetic materials

The authors have studied the magneto-optical Kerr rotation in more than 200 metallic systems comprising alloys as well as intermetallic compounds of 3d transition metals. For all these materials the crystal structure, the lattice constants, the room temperature magnetization and the room temperature Kerr rotation at two different wavelengths are specified. For several series of ternary compounds, comprising Heusler alloys Ni₂ In-type compounds and Cr₂₃C₆ type compounds, we determined the saturation moment at 4.2 K. For a number of representative alloys or compounds a study was also made of the wavelength dependence of the complex polar Kerr effect. The values of the Kerr rotation obtained at 633 nm were compared with the corresponding values of the measured magnetization. Systematic trends were observed and have been used to classify metallic systems into systems where the Kerr rotation will not reach values much in excess of 1° and systems where higher values are likely to be found.     

Magnetostriction of weak easy-plane ferromagnetic materials

A relationship determining the magnitude of magnetostriction in a given direction and its constant along the [100] easy direction are obtained with the use of the thermodynamic potential for a weak easy-plane ferromagnetic material based on calculations of the spontaneous components of the crystal strain tensor in terms of its elastic and magnetoelastic constants. An expression determining the specific compressibility of the crystal through its elastic constants is derived.     

Theory of periodic ferromagnetic multilayers

We investigate the statics and dynamics of periodic multilayers consisting of two ferromagnetic materials. Our theory is based on a general Ginzburg-Landau functional for inhomogeneous systems and the appropriate equations of motion. We compute the transition temperature of the composite material, the temperature dependence of the magnetization and the magnon dispersion relation. The statics apply also to other multilayer systems such as ferroelectrics.
