The magnetic (H
,
T)-phase diagram of the orthorhombic compound NdCu2 was investigated for external magnetic fields up to 15 T parallel to the crystallographic c-direction. Magnetization and magnetostriction measurements reveal an anomalous change of the magnetic properties as well
as giant magnetostriction (GMS) and large hysteretic effects. This behaviour is similar to that observed in some other RCu2 compounds where it has been interpreted as a conversion of the magnetic Ising axis. In contrast to these other RCu2 compounds, however, the easy axis of magnetization in NdCu2 is the b-axis. The macroscopic measurements are compared with neutron diffraction experiments which reveal GMS along the b-axis and a new magnetic phase with propagation vector in the converted crystal.

We discuss the excess conductivity at nonzero frequencies in a superconductor above Tc within the Gaussian approximation. We focus the attention on the temperature range not too close to Tc: within a time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau formulation, we phenomenologically introduce a short wavelength cutoff (of the order
of the inverse coherence length) in the fluctuational spectrum to suppress high momentum modes. We treat the general cases
of thin wires, anisotropic thin films and anisotropic bulk samples. We obtain in all cases explicit expressions for the finite
frequency fluctuational conductivity. The dc case directly follows. Close to Tc the cutoff has no effect, and the known results for Gaussian fluctuations are recovered. Above Tc, and already for ε = ln(T/T
c) > 10-2, we find strong suppression of the paraconductivity as compared to the Gaussian prediction, in particular in the real part
of the paraconductivity. At high ε the cutoff effects are dominant. We discuss our results in comparison with data on high-Tc superconductors.

Measurements of the thermal conductivity (kxx) and the thermal Hall effect (kxy) in high magnetic fields in Y- and Bi-based high-T
c
superconductors are presented. We describe the experimental technique and test measurements on a simple metal (niobium).
In the high-T
c
superconductors kxx and kxy increase below T
c
and show a maximum in their temperature dependence. kxx has contributions from phonons and quasiparticle (QP) excitations, whereas kxy is purely electronic. The strong increase of kxy below T
c
gives direct evidence for a strong enhancement of the QP contribution to the heat current and thus for a strong increase
of the QP mean free path. Using kxy and the magnetic field dependence of kxx we separate the electronic thermal conductivity ( k

) of the CuO
2
-planes from the phononic thermal conductivity ( k

k
xx
el
shows a pronounced maximum in the superconducting state. This maximum is much weaker in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O
8 + δ
, due to stronger impurity scattering. The maximum of k
xx
el
is strongly suppressed by a magnetic field, which we attribute to the scattering of QPs on vortices. An additional magnetic
field independent contribution to the maximum of kxx occurs in YBa2Cu3O
7 - δ
, reminiscent of the contribution of the CuO-chains, as determined from the anisotropy in untwined single crystals. Our data analysis reveals that below T
c
as in the normal state a transport (τ) and a Hall (
) relaxation time must be distinguished: The inelastic (i.e. temperature dependent) contribution to τ is strongly enhanced in the superconducting state, whereas
displays the same temperature dependence as above T
c
. We determine also the electronic thermal conductivity in the normal state from kxy and the electrical Hall angle. It shows an unusual linear increase with temperature.

A correlation between the second critical field Hc2 of the helix to paramagnetic transition and the magnetic specific heat C-peak was found in ZnCr2−xAlxSe4 spinel single crystals with x=0.15, 0.23. The specific heat peak is anomalously sharp for all finite magnetic fields used here and this points to a first order magneto-structural transition (from cubic to tetragonal symmetry). The C(T)-peak is increasingly suppressed as the external field increases. Approaching the Neel temperature TN, a broad ac-magnetic susceptibility peak is observed for zero dc-magnetic field. That peak does not show an energy loss and thus points towards a return to a second order type of transition. The magnetic contribution to the specific heat displays a sharp peak at TN and is maximal at the spin fluctuation temperature Tsf=34 K. Tsf is related to the maximum of the magnetic susceptibility at Tm=40 K (at 50 kOe) in the spin fluctuation region, as evidenced by the entropy exceeding 90% of the entropy calculated classically for the complete alignment of the Cr spins, (2−x)R ln(2S+1). The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data indicate that Al-substitution does not affect Cr3+ 3d3 electronic configuration. 相似文献

In a magnetic field, spin-ladders undergo two zero-temperature phase transitions at the critical fields Hc1 and Hc2. An experimental review of static and dynamical properties of spin-ladders close to these critical points is presented. The
scaling functions, universal to all quantum critical points in one-dimension, are extracted from (a) the thermodynamic quantities
(magnetization) and (b) the dynamical functions (NMR relaxation). A simple mapping of strongly coupled spin ladders in a magnetic
field on the exactly solvable XXZ model enables to make detailed fits and gives an overall understanding of a broad class of quantum magnets in their gapless
phase (between Hc1 and Hc2). In this phase, the low temperature divergence of the NMR relaxation demonstrates its Luttinger liquid nature as well as
the novel quantum critical regime at higher temperature. The general behavior close these quantum critical points can be tied
to known models of quantum magnetism.

We report on the synthesis, structural and electrical characterization of high quality Tl2Ba2Ca1Cu2O8 (Tl-2212) superconducting films. The samples have been grown ex-situ on mm2 LaAlO3 (100) substrates by a combined approach of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and thallium vapor diffusion.
The morphological and compositional nature of the c-axis oriented films has been investigated by SEM and X-ray analyses. Typical values of K and MA/cm2 at 77 K have been measured. Microwave measurements have been performed at f
= 87 GHz inserting the film in a copper cavity and at f
=1.5 GHz on patterned samples using a microstrip resonator technique. A penetration depth nm is evaluated by fitting the microwave data with phenomenological equations. The minimum value of the surface resistance
measured at 4.2 K is 60 and 6 m at 1.5 GHz and 87 GHz respectively. The microwave data are described in the context of a modified two fluid model. An evaluation
of the temperature dependence of the scattering rate has been performed through the simultaneous measurement of the surface
resistance and the penetration depth.

For the ferromagnets EuS and GdMg, in which fourth-order exchange interactions (i.e. biquadratic, three-spin and four-spin interactions) have been identified, the deviation of the spontaneous magnetization
with respect to the T
=0 value is shown to follow a T2 law instead of the famous T3/2 law expected for a Heisenberg ferromagnet. Moreover, the observed T2 law holds for temperatures as large as 0.8TC and the extrapolated magnetization value for does not conform to ferromagnetic saturation. This is because the fourth-order exchange interactions generate a second order-parameter
which is assumed to govern the order of the transverse moment components. These moment components have a finite expectation
value for at the expense of the Heisenberg order parameter. Like the spontaneous magnetization, the critical field curves B
c
(
T
) of the metamagnet EuSe and the antiferromagnet EuTe also start decreasing with a T2 term for . It is argued that the T2 law is a consequence of the fourth-order exchange interactions. This is shown experimentally by a study of the critical field
curves [0pt] pertinent to the longitudinal (Heisenberg) order-parameter in the diamagnetically diluted antiferromagnets EuxSr1-xTe. In this solid solution series a particular composition of x
c
=0.85 exists at which the different fourth-order interaction processes compensate each other in the high temperature average. As
a consequence, an EuxSr1-xTe sample with x
=0.85 meets the requirements of a Heisenberg antiferromagnet at least if a quantity is considered for which the high-temperature
average over all fourth-order interactions is decisive. This seems to be the case for the critical field curve [0pt] which
gives the phase boundary to the paramagnetic phase. In fact, a crossover from a T2 to a T3/2 law is observed for [0pt] on approaching xc. This, we believe, shows the frequently observed T2 law is caused by the fourth-order interactions.

Single crystal magnetization measurements and powder neutron diffraction on tetragonal ErRu2Ge2 as well as anisotropy of the paramagnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements on ErRu2Si2 are presented. Besides the huge crystal field contribution to the uniaxial anisotropy, which favors the basal plane, a strong
in-plane anisotropy is evidenced. From these features and neutron diffraction experiments it is shown that magnetic structures
of these materials are double-Q and accordingly non-colinear below their Néel temperature (5.2 and 6.0 K for Ge and Si based compounds, respectively). The
magnetic structures induced during the metamagnetic processes are discussed.

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and soft-X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (SXMCD) at the Mn L2,3-, Cr L2,3- and O-K edges of Sm0.5Ca0.5Mn1-xCrxO3 () bulk polycrystalline samples have been performed at T=20 K below the ferromagnetic Curie temperature. We show the existence of a magnetic sublattice on each of the probed cations.
Considering an electronically phase-separated system, results are compared with magnetization and resistivity measurements
and a tentative correlation with magnetoresistance properties on such doped compounds is discussed.

In continuous magnetic fields H up to 28 T, we have studied the out-of-plane transport properties and tunneling characteristics of high-quality nondoped single crystals of the Bi-cuprate family: Bi2Sr2CuO6+δ (Bi2201), Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ (Bi2212) and Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10+δ (Bi2223) grown by an identical method. For all compounds the out-of-plane magnetotransport ρc(H) is negative in the temperature region where ρc(T) shows in the normal state a semiconducting-like temperature dependence. The negative magnetoresistance of ρc corresponds to the suppression of the semiconducting temperature dependence of ρc(T) which is found to be isotropic. For the Bi2201 compound, where the normal state can be reached in the available magnetic fields (28 T), a nearly complete suppression of the low-temperature upturn in ρc(T) is observed in the highest magnetic fields with a tendency towards a metallic behavior down to the lowest temperatures (0.4 K). Using the break-junction technique, especially for the Bi2212 and Bi2232 compounds, a clear superconducting gap structure can be observed. Both for temperatures above the critical temperature and for magnetic fields above the upper critical field, a pseudogap structure remains present in the tunneling spectra. The applied magnetic fields yield a stronger suppression of the superconducting state compared to that of the normal-state gap structures as manifested in ρc(T) transport and tunneling. 相似文献

In the replica symmetric approximation and static limit in Matsubara “imaginary time”, the quantum XY spin glass model with planar Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in longitudinal field is investigated. Several thermodynamic
quantities are calculated numerically as well as spin self-interaction and spin glass order parameter for spin S=1/2. It is shown that the entropy is not independent of the field. A crossover behavior of the specific heat depending on
temperature is found. There is a deviation from the parabolic approximation, C/T=A+Bh

In cuprates, in a view where pairing correlations set in at the pseudogap energy scale T* and acquire global coherence at
a lower temperature Tc, the regionT
c⪯ T ⪯ T* is a vast fluctuation regime.T
c andT* vary differently with doping and the question remains about the doping trends of the relevant magnetic field scales: the
field Hc2 bounding the superconducting response and the pseudogap closing field Hpg. In-plane thermal (Nernst) and our interlayer (tunneling) transport experiments in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+y report hugely different limiting magnetic fields. Here, based on pairing (and the uncertainty principle) combined with the
definitions of the Zeeman energy and the magnetic length, we show that both fields convert to the same pseudogap scaleT* upon transformation as orbital and Zeeman critical fields, respectively. The region of superconducting coherence is confined
to the ‘dome’ that coincides with the usual unique upper critical field Hc2 on the strongly overdoped side. We argue that the distinctly different orbital and the Zeeman limiting fields can co-exist
owing to charge and spin degrees of freedom separated to different parts of the strongly anisotropic Fermi surface. 相似文献

We report on X-ray resonance exchange and neutron scattering of metallic GdS. At the LII and L III absorption edges of Gd, resonance enhancements of more than two orders of magnitude over the non-resonant magnetic scattering
are observed. Polarisation analysis proves that these enhancements are due to dipolar transitions from the 2p to the 5d states. The branching ratio between the LII and L III edges of 2.5 suggests a polarisation of the 5d electrons in the ground state. The antiferromagnetic order is of type II in the fcc lattice. Single crystal diffraction of
hot neutrons suggests that the spin direction lies within the (111) planes with a value for the sublattice magnetisation of
6.51(3) . The critical exponent for the sublattice magnetisation has a value of β = 0.38(2) in agreement with a pure Heisenberg model.
Above T
N, a sharp component persists in the critical diffuse scattering. Lattice distortions give indications for two additional low-temperature
phase transitions at about 49 K and 32 K. We argue that these transitions are not connected to spin reorientations and discuss
the possible influence of fourth-order exchange interactions.

In the present paper, we study the magnetic properties of bilayer cuprate antiferromagnets. In order to evaluate the expressions
for spin-wave dispersion, sublattice magnetization, Néel temperature and the magnetic contribution to the specific heat, the
double time Green's function technique has been employed in the random phase approximation (RPA). The spin wave dispersion
curve for a bilayer antiferromagnetic system is found to consist of one acoustic and one optic branch. The “optical magnon
gap” has been attributed solely to the intra-bilayer exchange coupling (J
⊥
) as its magnitude does not change significantly with the inter-bilayer exchange coupling (Jz). However Jz is essential to obtain the acoustic mode contribution to the magnetization. The numerical calculations show that the Néel
temperature (T
N
) of the bilayer antiferromagnetic system increases with the Jz and a small change in Jz gives rise to a large change in the Néel temperature of the system. The magnetic specific heat of the system follows a T2 behaviour but in the presence of Jz it varies faster than T2.

The longitudinal and transverse nuclear magnetic relaxation rates 1/T
1(T) and 1/T
2(T) are calculated for three- and two-dimensional (3D and 2D) metallic ferro- and antiferromagnets (FM and AFM) with localized
magnetic moments in the spin-wave temperature region. The contribution of the one-magnon decay processes is strongly enhanced
in comparison with the standard T-linear Korringa term, especially for the FM case. For the 3D AFM case this contribution diverges logarithmically, the divergence
being cut at the magnon gap ω due to magnetic anisotropy, and for the 2D AFM case as ω-1. The electron-magnon scattering processes yield T
2ln(T/ω) and T
2/ω1/2-terms in 1/T

Measurements of the fluctuation magnetoconductivity as a function of both the magnetic field up to 13 T and the temperature in thin films of Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3Ox are presented. The variation of the magnetoconductivity with the magnetic field strength is quadratic at temperatures distantly above the critical temperatureT
c
and changes to an entirely negative curvature nearT
c
. The latter behavior is attributed to an inhomogeneous critical temperature in the films. The results are analyzed in terms of recent theoretical models for fluctuation-enhanced magnetoconductivity in layered superconductors. The magnetoconductivity in a magnetic field oriented normal to the copper-oxide layers is dominated by the orbital contribution of the Aslamazov-Larkin effect. The magnetoconductivity in the parallel orientation is distinctly smaller and provides evidence for the corresponding Zeeman contribution. The latter measurement also indicates that the Maki-Thompson process may be insignificant in Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3Ox. 相似文献
