Multi-magnetic phases in Fe1−xNixTa2O6

X-ray, neutron diffraction and magnetic susceptibility are reported for Fe_xNi_1−xTa₂O₆ mixed oxides. X-ray refinement indicates homogeneous samples for all the reported concentrations. The neutron-diffraction measurements reveal magnetic structures with double propagation vectors. This system exhibits at least two bicritical points at about x=0.15 and 0.60. For these concentrations, at low temperatures, the system shows the coexistence of two magnetic structures. This bicritical behaviour is interpreted as induced by competition between the different magnetic structures.     

On the magnetic structure of PrMn2O5: a neutron diffraction study

The long-range magnetic ordering of PrMn(2)O(5) has been studied on polycrystalline samples from neutron diffraction and specific heat measurements. The onset of antiferromagnetic ordering is observed at T(N) ≈ 25 K. In the temperature interval 18 K < T < 25 K the magnetic structure is defined by the propagation vector k(1) = (1/2,0,0). Below 18 K, some additional magnetic satellites appear in the NPD patterns, which are indexed with k(2) = (0,0,1/2). Therefore, below 18 K the magnetic structure consists of two independent magnetic domains, defined by the propagation vectors k(1) and k(2). The magnetic structure of the k(1)-domain is given by the basis vectors (C(x),0,0) and (C(x)',0,0) for Mn(4h) and Mn(4f), respectively. In the k(2)-domain, the magnetic structure is defined by the basis vectors (0,0,G(z)) and (F(x)',G(y)',0) for Mn(4h) and Mn(4f), respectively. At T = 1.5 K, for the magnetic phase associated with k(1), the magnetic moments of the Mn atoms at the 4h and 4f sites are 1.82(7) and 1.81(6) μ(B), respectively; for the magnetic phase associated with k(2), the magnetic moments for the Mn(4h) and Mn(4f) atoms are 0.59(5) and 2.62(5) μ(B), respectively.

Spin freezing and magnetic inhomogeneities in bilayer manganites

We have performed a muon spin rotation study on polycrystalline samples of electron-doped layered manganites, La2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7 (0.4< or =x<1), in order to investigate the local magnetic structure and spin dynamics. Our results provide evidence for phase separation into A-type antiferromagnetic and charge-ordered phases for x=0.52 and spin freezing at low temperatures (T<100 K) for 0.52< or =x<0.75. A new phase diagram which includes this spin-freezing region is proposed.     

On the suppression of superconductivity in ErBa2Cu3Ox

Powder samples of ErBa₂Cu₃O_x prepared by a desorption-absorption procedure were studied by susceptibility and neutron-diffraction experiments for variousx(6x7). The suppression of superconductivity does not coincide with the orthorhombic-to-tetragonal phase transition, but with a significant charge redistribution between the Cu–O chains and planes. Upon oxygen removal, asT _c (x)O, step-like anomalies are observed in some bonding lengths and atomic distances, which support an all-electronic mechanism for the oxide superconductivity.     

Structural and magnetic properties of Ni-Li oxides

Mixed Li-Ni oxides, Li_xNi_1-xO, are prepared by solid state reaction in the range 0.2≤x≤0.46 by annealing around 1000 K for various times. As reported in literature, above x=0.31 an ordered solid solution (OSS) is formed in which planes of pure Ni alternate with Li-Ni planes, whereas below x=0.2 only a fully disordered solid state solution (SSS) exists. We analyze the intermediate composition region 0.22≤x≤0.31 by fitting the X-ray patterns with a two-phases model using the Rietveld method: a SSS phase and an OSS phase where partial occupancy of the Ni-planes by lithium is allowed. The two phases coexist in the intermediate region, and no lithium is allowed in the Ni planes of the OSS phase; furthermore, the lithium contents of the OSS and SSS phases are approximately x ∼ 0.4 and x ∼ 0.2, respectively, and loss of lithium is associated with transformation of the OSS phase into SSS.⁷Li NMR data find evidence of a common magnetic behaviour of the samples containing the OSS phase which agrees with the X-ray findings.

The doping effects of BiFe_1-xCo_xO₃（x=0.0-0.8） in layered perovskite Bi₄Ti₃O₁₂ ceramics

Bi5Fe1-xCoxTi3O15(x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, and 0.8) multiferroic ceramics are synthesized in two steps using the solid state reaction technique. X-ray diffraction patterns show that the samples have four-layer Aurivillius phases. At room temperature (RT), the samples each present a remarkable coexistence of ferromagnetism (FM) and ferroelectricity (FE). The remnant polarization (2P r ) reaches its greatest value of 14 μC/cm 2 at x = 0.6. Remnant magnetization (2M r ) first increases and then decreases, and the greatest 2M r is 7.8 menu/g when x = 0.5. The magnetic properties for x = 0.4 are similar to those for x = 0.6, indicating that the magnetic properties originate mainly from the coupling between Fe 3+ and Co 3+ ions, rather than from their own magnetic moments.     

Structural and Magnetic Properties of Codoped ZnO based Diluted Magnetic Semiconductors

Zn1-xCoxO （x = 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.20） diluted magnetic semiconductors are prepared by the sol-gel method. The structural and magnetic properties of the samples are studied using x-ray diffraction （XRD）, extended x-ray absorption fine structure （EXAFS） and superconducting quantum interference device （SQUID）. The XRD patterns does not show any signal of precipitates that are different from wurtzite type ZnO when Co content is lower than x = 0.10. An EXAFS technique for the Co K-edge has been employed to probe the local structures around Co atoms doped in ZnO powders by fluorescence mode. The simulation results for the first shell EXAFS signals indicate that Zn sites can be substituted by Co atoms when Co content is lower than x = 0.05. The SQUID results show that the samples （x 〈 0.05） exhibit clear hysteresis loops at 300K, and magnetization versus temperature from 5 K to 350K at H = 100 Oe for the sample x = 0.02 shows that the samples have ferromagnetism above room temperature. A double-exchange mechanism is proposed to explain the ferromagnetic properties of the samples.     

Magnetic interface polarization of the La-5d states in Fe/LaHx multilayers

For rare-earth (RE)-hydrides (REHx), a metal-to-insulator transition is observed if the hydrogen concentration is increased from the dihydride (x=2) towards the trihydride (x=3). This transition provides an object for studies of the magnetic interface polarization in layered ferromagnet/insulator structures. For different samples with a fixed Fe and varied LaH_x sublayer thickness t_LaHx ([15 ? Fe/t? LaH_x]xn), the H concentration x in the LaH_x sublayer is gradually increased in the experiment. Starting from the as prepared dihydride REH_2-δ, the modification of the magnetic polarization of the La-5d states at the Fe/La_x interface is studied across the transition by magnetic circular dichroism measurements at the La-L₂ and L₃ edges. The experiments reveal an induced magnetic polarization of the La-5d hole states on a length scale of 9 ? that is independent of the altered electronic structure of the La-5d states.

Synthesis,Mössbauer studies and superconductivity of substituted Bi 2201 phase

We report X-ray diffraction, resistivity and Mössbauer studies on several substituted 2201 Bi cuprates, Bi₂Sr₂Cu_1?xFe_xO_y(O≤x≤1) and Bi₂Sr_1.6La_0.4Cu_1?xFe_xO_y and Bi_1.6Pb_0.4Sr_1.6La_0.4Cu_1?xFe_xO_y (O≤x≤0.04). The first series is not superconducting and a new phase appears for x=1. For La substituted samples, T_c increases up to 35K and decreases strongly with x. All Mössbauer spectra were fitted well with four quadrupole doublets, with relative population depending on samples.

Magnetic and optical properties of Zn1– x Fe x O ( x = 0.05 and 0.10) diluted magnetic semiconducting nanoparticles

We have investigated the magnetic and optical properties of chemically low temperature-synthesized Zn_{1– x} Fe _x O (x = 0.05 and 0.10) diluted magnetic semiconducting nanoparticles (～7 nm). Observed magnetic behaviour of x = 0.05 samples showed that the net magnetic interaction was antiferromagnetic-like, a feature established by Curie–Weiss fit, concave Arrott–Belov–Kouvel (ABK) plots with the absence of spontaneous magnetization even at 5 K and stretched exponential-type time-dependent magnetization behaviour. Optimization of the Fe(x) dopant concentration in Zn_{1– x} Fe _x O gave the most favourable room-temperature ferromagnetism for x = 0.10, as supported by finite coercive field (～94.4 Oe) and remanent magnetization (0.011 µ_B/Fe ion) from strong hysteretic magnetization vs. magnetic-field curves at room temperature. The Curie temperature of the x = 0.10 sample was estimated at ～388 K. The existence of a room-temperature ferromagnetic phase was further established by the convex nature of the ABK plots with finite spontaneous magnetization. The observed magnetic behaviour for different x values is best explained by a magnetic polaron model.

Optical properties of bulk Zn1−xCoxO magnetic semiconductors

Polycrystalline Zn_1−xCo_xO (x=0, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15) oxides have been synthesized by solid state reaction via sintering ZnO and Co powders in open air. X-ray diffraction analyses using Rietveld refinement indicate that a stoichiometric single phase with a wurtzite-like structure was found in Zn_1−xCo_xO samples with x up to 0.10. The elemental mapping using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopic analyses presents a uniform distribution of Co. Optical transmittance measurements show that several extra absorption bands appear in the Co-doped ZnO, which is due to the transitions between the crystal-field-split 3d levels of tetrahedral Co²⁺ substituting Zn²⁺ ions. Raman measurements show that limited host lattice defects are induced by Co doping. Magnetization measurements reveal that the Co-doped ZnO samples are paramagnetic due to the absence of free carriers and in low temperature the dominant magnetic interaction is nearest-neighbor antiferromagnetic.
