Scaling of ac susceptibility and the nonlinear response function of high-temperature superconductors

The amplitude-dependent ac susceptibility of high-temperature superconductors is shown to obey some empirical scaling relations. We try to analyze this behavior by extending a dc nonlinear response function of mixed state to the ac cases. The derived equations for critical current and ac susceptibility X(T) agree with the scaling relations of experimental data.

Dynamic scaling behaviour of late-stage phase separation in Ni75AlxV25-x alloys

The dynamic scaling behaviour of late-stage phase separation and coarsening mechanisms of L12 and D022 in Ni75AlxV25-x （3 ≤ x ≤ 10, at.%） alloys are studied using the microscopic phase-field dynamic model. The microelaso ticity field is incorporated into the diffusion dynamic model. The results show the morphology and coarsening dynamics being greatly changed by the elastic interactions among different precipitates, the particles aligning along the dominant directions, the average domain size （ADS） of L12 and D022 deviating from the exponent of temporal power-law, and the growth slowing down due to the increasing of elastic interactions. The dynamic scaling regime of late-stage coarsening of the precipitates is attained. Thus the scaling behaviour of structure function is also applicable for elastic interaction systems. It is also found that the variations of ADS and scaling function depend on the volume fraction of precipitates.     

An electron spin resonance study of Eu doping effect in La4/3Srs/3Mn2O7 single crystal

The effect of Eu3＋ ion doping in the La sites of single-crystal La4/3Srs/3Mn2O7 was investigated. Electron spin resonance （ESR） was applied to La4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7 and （Lao.8Euo.2）4/3Sr5/3Mn2O7 single crystals. A phase separation and phase transitions were observed from the ESR spectra data. Between 350 K and 300 K, both paramagnetic resonance （PMR） and anisotropic ferromagnetic resonance （FMR） lines were observed in the ab plane and the c axis direction, suggesting a coexistence of the paramagnetic （PM） phase and the ferromagnetic （FM） phase. The magnetization measurement reveals a spin-glass-like behavior in single-crystal （Lao.8Euo.2）4/3 Sr5/3Mn2O7 below the temperature of spin freezing Tf （- 29.5 K）.     

Effects of Fe doping on crystalline and optical properties of yttria-stabilized zirconia

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) samples with different Fe concentrations were prepared to study the effects of Fe doping on crystalline and optical properties of YSZ. The former properties were determined by X-ray diffraction, while the latter properties were determined by diffuse reflectance (DR) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies. Lattice contraction of YSZ caused by the Fe doping was observed. We revealed that the DR spectra of the 3 and 6 mol% Fe-doped YSZ samples originate from the Fe ions dissolved and undissolved in the YSZ, respectively. Moreover, two PL bands centered around 440 and 530 nm were observed for the YSZ sample, whereas one PL band centered around 440 nm was observed for the Fe-doped YSZ samples. The Fe doping reduced the PL intensity of YSZ and quenched the PL band around 530 nm. This could be explained by considering that the concentration of Fe ions near the surface of YSZ is much larger than that in the bulk of YSZ or by considering that the Fe doping enhances surface band bending of YSZ.     

57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopic study of (25−x)MnO–xZnO–15Fe2O3–60B2O3 glasses

The ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer technique has been used to investigate the effect of zinc oxide substitution in (25???x)MnO–xZnO–15Fe₂O₃–60B₂O₃ glass system (x?=?0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mol% of ZnO ). Mössbauer absorption spectra for all the samples recorded at room temperature suggest the existence of the two paramagnetic quadrupole doublets. The observed variations in hyperfine parameters have been explained on the basis of cations distribution and exchange interaction at the lattice sites and it is concluded that B–B interaction increases while the metal–metal interaction decreases due to replacement of manganese oxide by zinc oxide. These results suggest that the present glass system exhibits a paramagnetic behaviour that changes towards the weak paramagnetic when manganese oxide was replaced with zinc oxide.     

Effects of acetone-soaking treatment on the performance of polymer solar cells based on P3HT/PCBM bulk heterojunction

The improvement of the acetone-soaking treatment to the performance of polymer solar cells based on the P3HT/PCBM bulk heterojunction is reported. Undergoing acetone-soaking, the PCBM does not distribute uniformly in the vertical direction, a PCBM enrichment layer forms on the top of the active layer, which is beneficial to the collec- tion of the carriers and blocking the inverting diffusion carriers. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） analysis reveals that the PCBM weight ratio on the top of the active layer increases by 20% after the acetone-soaking treatment. Due to the nonuniform distribution of PCBM, the short-circuit current density, the open-circuit voltage, and the fill factor are enhanced significantly. Finally, the power conversion efficiency of the acetone-soaking device increases by 31% compared with the control device.     

The influence of external boundary conditions on the spherical model of a ferromagnet. I. Magnetization profiles

The spherical model of a ferromagnet is investigated for various (external) boundary conditions. It is shown that, besides the well-known critical point, a second one can be produced by the boundary conditions. Although the main asymptotic of the free energy is analytic at the new critical point, theO(N^1–2/d) asymptotic possesses a singularity here. A natural order parameter of the model has singularities at both critical points. The magnetization profile is studied for the whole range of the model's parameters and at different scales. It is shown that (in an appropriate regime) below the second critical temperature the magnetization profile freezes, that is, becomes temperature independent. Distributions of the single spin variables and some macroscopic observables (including normalized total spin) are studied for the whole temperature range including the critical points.     

Effect of Co doping on the magnetic properties of La0.85Ag0.15(Mn1−yCoy)O3

The mixed valent manganites (La_0.85Ag_0.15)MnO₃ with perovskite structure has been prepared by doping up to 50% of Co at the Mn site. Paramagnetic (PM) to ferromagnetic (FM) transitions have been observed in all the prepared materials. However, the long-range magnetic ordering observed in (La_0.85Ag_0.15)MnO₃ is systemically reduced to cluster glass-type (short-range) of FM ordering due to the introduction of Co. The FM transition temperature was found to decrease with increase in Co doping up to 20% and for further increase in Co doping, the T_c was found to increase. They are explained on the basis of competition between FM double exchange interactions in Mn–O–Mn and Co–O–Co networks. In addition to PM–FM transition, evidences of FM to antiferromagnetic (AFM), and AFM to reentrant spin-glass transitions have been observed. The shift in spin-glass freezing temperature, T_f has been observed from the frequency variation of ac susceptibility measurements. The observed magnetic transitions are explained on the basis of magnetic interactions in different Mn–O–Mn, Mn–O–Co and Co–O–Co networks and such transitions are also observed from the measurement of third harmonic susceptibility. Metal–insulator transition and colossal magneto-resistivity have been observed up to 10% of Co doping.

Dynamical spin susceptibility of the d–p model in the over doping region

Dynamical spin susceptibility χ^s(q,ω) of the d–p model in the over doping region is investigated by using the auxiliary boson technique. It includes higher order terms of the 1/N-expansion within the random phase approximation (RPA) of the local vertex, where frequency dependence of the quasi-particle interaction is taken into account. The incommensurate spin fluctuation is obtained due to the nesting effect in the low energy region (ωω^*), whereas the commensurate one in the high energy region (ωω^*), the characteristic energy ω^* is estimated to be about 30 meV. Both of the spin–lattice relaxation rate 1/T₁ and the spin–spin relaxation rate 1/T_g monotonically increase as T decreases, while the spin Knight shift K is almost independent of T.     

The effect of In doping on optical properties of Fe:LiNBO3 crystals

Fe:LiNbO₃ and In:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals were grown by Czochralski method. The absorption spectra were measured to investigate their defect structure. The photo damage resistance and photorefractive properties were measured. The photo damage resistance of the In:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystal in which the In concentration is above the threshold value is one order of magnitude higher than that of the Fe:LiNbO₃ crystal. The mechanisms of the violet shift of the absorption edge and the enhancement of the photorefractive effect of In:Fe:LiNbO₃ crystals were investigated.     

Effects of Fe doping and Fe-N-codoping on magnetic properties of SnO2 prepared by chemical co-precipitation

The effects of Fe-doping and Fe-N-codoping on the magnetic properties of SnO₂, prepared by chemical co-precipitation technique, are investigated in details. We found that the paramagnetism is the dominant magnetic interaction in Fe doped SnO₂. A weak antiferromagnetic coupling between Fe²⁺ ions is also confirmed through Zero field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) magnetization studies. On the other hand, hystersis behavior is observed for Fe-N-codoped SnO₂ samples with coercivity H_c∼420 and 352 Oe for x=0.05 and 0.10, respectively. As no other secondary or impurity phase is detected by XRD study and the presence of N is confirmed by EDX analysis, this observed ferromagnetism is originated due to the substitution of N in Sn_1−xFe_xO₂. N doping at the oxygen site can be regarded as defect and introduces a hole in this system. As a result, a hole-induced ferromagnetism might be the origin of the observed ferromagnetism in Fe-N-codoped SnO₂ samples.     

温度对铌酸锂电光相位调制特性的影响

Ni75Cr25-xAlx合金中L12相和D022相形核孕育期的微观相场模拟

基于微观相场动力学模型,运用原子图像、平均长程序参数和平均成分偏离序参数,研究了Al浓度对Ni75Cr25-xAlx合金中L12相和D022相形核孕育期的影响以及孕育期与沉淀相析出顺序之间的关系.结果表明,L12相和D022相的形核孕育期不仅与Al浓度有关,而且与两相析出的先后顺序密切相关.当Al浓度小于7.5%时,先析出相为D022相,随着Al浓度的增大,D022相形核孕育期延长,后析出的L12相的形核孕育期也延长,L12相的原子簇聚速度加快;当Al浓度大于7.5%时,先析出相为L12相,随着Al浓度的增大,L12相的形核孕育期缩短,后析出的D022相形核孕育期也缩短.当Al浓度为7.5%时,L12相和D022相几乎同时析出,两者的孕育期没有明显的差别.     

Magnetic properties of the mixed spin-5/2 and spin-3/2 Blume-Capel Ising system on the two-fold Cayley tree

We use exact recursion relations to study the magnetic properties of the half-integer mixed spin-5/2 and spin-3/2 Blume-Capel Ising ferromagnetic system on the two-fold Cayley tree that consists of two sublattices A and B. Two positive crystal-field interactions Δ₁ and Δ₂ are considered for the sublattice with spin-5/2 and spin-3/2 respectively. For different coordination numbers q of the Cayley tree sites, the phase diagrams of the model are presented with a special emphasis on the case q = 3, since other values of q reproduce similar results. First, the T = 0 phase diagram is illustrated in the (D _A = Δ₁/J,D _B = Δ₂/J) plane of reduced crystal-field interactions. This diagram shows triple points and coexistence lines between thermodynamically stable phases. Secondly, the thermal variation of the magnetization belonging to each sublattice for some coordination numbers q are investigated as well as the Helmoltz free energy of the system. First-order and second-order phase transitions are found. The second-order phase transitions become sharper and sharper when D _A or D _B increases. The first-order transitions only exist for some appropriate non-zero values of D _A and/or D _B . The corresponding transition lines never connect to the second-order transition lines. Thus, the non-existence of tricritical points remains one of the key features of the present model. The magnetic exponent β ₀ of the model is estimated and found to be ¼ at small values of D _A = D _B = D and β ₀ = ½ at large values of D. At intermediate values of D, there is a crossover region where the magnetic exponent displays interesting behaviours.
