Tb0.3Dy0.7－xPrx(Fe0.9Al0.1)1.95合金的磁致伸缩、自旋重取向和穆斯堡尔谱研究

系统研究了室温下Tb_0.3Dy_0.7-xPr_x(Fe_0.9Al_0.1)_1.95 (x=0，0.1，0.2，0.25，0.3，0.35)合金中稀土元素Pr替代Dy对晶体结构、磁致伸缩、各向异性和自旋重取向的影响. 结果发现，x≤0.1时，Tb_0.3Dy_0.7-xPr_x(Fe_0.9Al_0.1)_1.95完全保持MgCl₂立方Laves相结构，0.1<x≤0.3，有杂相出现并且随Pr替代量逐渐增多；晶格常数a随Pr含量x的增加缓慢增大. 磁致伸缩测量发现，随着替代量x的增多磁致伸缩减小；x>0.2时超磁致伸缩效应消失. 然而，x=0.1时合金的磁致伸缩略大于没有替代的，而且磁致伸缩随磁场更易趋于饱和，说明Pr替代有助于降低磁晶各向异性. 内禀磁致伸缩λ₁₁₁随Pr替代量x的增加接近线性增加. 由相对磁化率随温度的变化关系可以看出，自旋重取向温度随Pr替代量的增多呈先增后降趋势，在x=0.1处出现极大值. 穆斯堡尔效应表明，随Pr含量的增加Tb_0.3Dy_0.7-xPr_x(Fe_0.9Al_0.1)_1.95合金中易磁化轴可能在{110}面上绕主对称轴作微小转动，发生自旋重取向. 与Al元素替代效应相比，Pr替代Dy对自旋重取向的影响相对较小.

Giant magnetoresistance in Y0.9La0.1Mn6Sn6 compound

Magnetic transitions and magnetoresistance effect of the HfFe_6Ge_6-type Y_{0.9}La_{0.1}Mn_6Sn_6 compound have been investigated in the temperature range of 5－380K. The sample displays antiferromagnetic behaviour in the whole temperature range below Néel temperature T_N=309K. The metamagnetic transition from antiferromagnetism to ferromagnetism can be induced by an applied field. The metamagnetic transition field decreases monotonically from 2T at 5K to 0.4T at 300K. The giant magnetoresistance effect is observed with the metamagnetic behaviour, such as -10.4% at 245K under a field of 5T.     

Cu site substitution effect on the Hall coefficient of La2−xSrxCuO4

The Cu site substitution effects on the Hall coefficient R_H and the electrical resistivity have been studied for La_2−xSr_xCuO₄. In a small x region, R_H decreases largely with Zn doping and increases with Ni doping. In the Ni doped samples, shows the characteristic temperature dependence similar to those of the unsubstituted samples where the decrease of the slope of vs. T curve is observed for x<0.1 above 600K but in the Zn doped samples, the change of the slope of becomes smaller,i.e. the temperature dependence of below 600K becomes smaller. These results indicate that the origin of the change of the slope of around 600K for x<0.1 is magnetic and the spin correlation or the electronic state is rather different below and above 600K. The unusual Zn doping dependences of R_H and are naturally explained by considering that the electronic state at high temperatures above 600K which has a small Hall coefficient expected for the large Fermi surface comes down to lower temperatures by the Zn doping.     

Magnetic properties of Sm3(Fe, Mo)29NX interstitial nitride

Sm₃(Fe, Mo)₂₉N_x nitride has been synthesized at 823 K for 2.5 h by gas phase reaction under 1 atm of nitrogen. The nitride retains the structure of parent compound. The unit cell volume of the nitride is 4.7% greater than that of the parent compound. Introduction of nitrogen leads to an increase of Curie temperature T_c from 445 K for the parent to 704 K for the nitride, and an increase of saturation magnetization M_s from 135 A m²/kg for the parent to 152 A m²/kg for the nitride at 4.2 K, and from 107 A m²/kg for the parent to 137 A m²/kg for the nitride at 300 K. The nitride exhibits uniaxial anisotropy with an anisotropy field B_a of 20.5 T at 4.2 K and 14.6 T at 300 K.     

Structural and magnetic properties of ferromagnetic In1−xMnxAs1−yPy layers

The structural and magnetic properties of epitaxial In_1−xMn_xAs_1−yP_y quaternary layers with Mn content ranging from 0.01 to 0.04 and phosphorous content ranging from 0.11 to 0.21 were studied. X-ray diffraction indicated that the films were two phase consisting of an InMnAsP solid solution and hexagonal MnAs nanoprecipitates. Addition of phosphorus promoted precipitate formation. Films were ferromagnetic showing hysteretic behavior in the field dependence of magnetization at 5 and 298 K. From field-cooled magnetization measurements ferromagnetic transitions were observed at 280 and 325 K. The zero field-cooled magnetization versus temperature measurements showed irreversibility for T<300 K that was attributed to the presence of MnAs nanoprecipitates. The calculated coercivity using the Neel model was 1380 G compared to the experimental value of 380 G at 5 K. The difference was attributed to a strong inter-cluster exchange that stabilizes the ferromagnetic state.     

Electron tunneling through superconducting A1/monolayer/Pb junctions

The current-voltage characteristic of Al/adsorbed monolayer/Pb junctions was measured at 77, 4.2 and 1.8K at applied voltages from 1 to 3 mV. At 77K the current changes linearly with voltage whereas at 4.2 and 1.8 K the relationship becomes nonlinear. From the results at 1.8 K we obtain an approximate band gap for Pb equal to 2.6 meV. The observation of a nonlinear current-voltage characteristic at temperatures where Pb becomes superconducting is strong evidence that the observed current through the insulator is a tunneling current.     

Magnetic order in M2Mo3O8 single crystals (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni)

Magnetic measurements on hexagonal single crystals of M₂Mo₃O₈ (M = Mn, Fe, Co and Ni) are reported. The Mn compound orders ferrimagnetically at T_c = 41.5 K; the Fe and Co compounds antiferrimagnetically at T_N = 59.5 K and 40.8 K, respectively. No magnetic ordering was found in the Ni compound down to 2 K. All the compounds showed strong magnetic anisotropy when ordered, the results indicating that the magnetic spins' preferred orientation is along the hexagonal axis. Mn₂Mo₃O₈ shows a temperature dependence of the spontaneous magnetization in the ferrimagnetic regime which is rarely observed: as T → 0, M_s → 0.     

Nuclear spin-lattice relaxation of protons in low-dimensional Ising-like system: [(CH3)3NH]CoCl3 · 2H2O

The nuclear spin-lattice relaxation times of protons in a low-dimensional Ising-like system [(CH₃)₃NH]CoCl₃ · 2H₂O were measured from 1.2 to 4.2 K in zero field and in an external magnetic field applied along the spin easy-axis. The calculation for the two-magnon Raman process was carried out with respect to a ferromagnetic layer of the bc-plane. By taking the gap energy to be 14.0 K, the best fit of the theoretical curves with the data was obtained from 1.2 K to about 2.0 K. The experimental results at high temperatures deviate seriously from the prediction of this process, which is discussed in terms of a tentative model for the nuclear relaxation process associated with magnon bound states.     

Magnetic properties of the compounds ThCO2Ge2 and ThCo2Si2

Rather old preparation of the compounds ThCo₂Ge₂ and ThCo₂Si₂ and their magnetic study in the temperature range 100–570 K, published by Omejec and Ban [Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 380 (1971) 111], indicated that both compounds ordered ferrromagnetically below 100 K. In order to verify the old data, polycrystalline samples of ThCo₂Ge₂ and ThCo₂Si₂ have been prepared by arc melting and subsequent annealing, and studied by X-ray diffraction at room temperature (RT), by superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID)-magnetization and AC-susceptibility measurements at 2–320 K, and by dc-magnetization measurements in variable magnetic fields up to 120 kOe at 5, 80, and 283 K. The magnetic measurements confirm the ferromagnetic ordering in both compounds, but with totally different Curie temperatures: ≈120(20) K for ThCo₂Ge₂ and above 320 K for ThCo₂Si₂. The paramagnetic values of ThCo₂Ge₂ and the ordering of both compounds are discussed and compared with the old results of Omejec and Ban.     

Magnetocaloric properties of LaFe13−x−yCoxSiy and commercial grade Gd

The magnetocaloric properties of three samples of LaFe_13−x−yCo_xSi_y have been measured and compared to measurements of commercial grade Gd. The samples have (x=0.86, y=1.08), (x=0.94, y=1.01) and (x=0.97, y=1.07) yielding Curie temperatures in the range 276-288 K. The magnetization, specific heat capacity and adiabatic temperature change have been measured over a broad temperature interval. Importantly, all measurements were corrected for demagnetization, allowing the data to be directly compared. In an internal field of 1 T the maximum specific entropy changes were 6.2, 5.1 and 5.0 J/kg K, the specific heat capacities were 910, 840 and 835 J/kg K and the adiabatic temperature changes were 2.3, 2.1 and 2.1 K for the three LaFeCoSi samples respectively. For Gd in an internal field of 1 T the maximum specific entropy change was 3.1 J/kg K, the specific heat capacity was 340 J/kg K and the adiabatic temperature change was 3.3 K. The adiabatic temperature change was also calculated from the measured values of the specific heat capacity and specific magnetization and compared to the directly measured values. In general an excellent agreement was seen.
