Structural changes concurrent with ferromagnetic transition

Ferromagnetic transition has generally been considered to involve only an ordering of magnetic moment with no change in the host crystal structure or symmetry, as evidenced by a wealth of crystal structure data from conventional X-ray diffractometry (XRD). However, the existence of magnetostriction in all known ferromagnetic systems indicates that the magnetic moment is coupled to the crystal lattice; hence there is a possibility that magnetic ordering may cause a change in crystal structure. With the development of high-resolution synchrotron XRD, more and more magnetic transitions have been found to be accompanied by simultaneous structural changes. In this article, we review our recent progress in understand- ing the structural change at a ferromagnetic transition, including synchrotron XRD evidence of structural changes at the ferromagnetic transition, a phenomenological theory of crystal structure changes accompanying ferromagnetic transitions, new insight into magnetic morphotropic phase boundaries (MPB) and so on. Two intriguing implications of non-centric symmetry in the ferromagnetic phase and the first-order nature of ferromagnetic transition are also discussed here. In short, this review is intended to give a self-consistent and logical account of structural change occurring simultaneously with a ferromagnetic transition, which may provide new insight for developing highly magneto-responsive materials.

A Stable Porous Silicon Dielectric Reflector with a Photonic Band Gap Centred at 10μm

By pulsed anodic etching at low temperature, we prepared a porous silicon reflector with a photonic band gap centred in the long-wavelength infrared spectral region （centred at about 12 μm）. After proper oxidation process, the stable reflector structure, which can reflect electromagnetic wave from 8 μm to 12 μm （centred at 10 μm） within wide incidence angles （about 50°）, is obtained. The wavelength shift of absorption peak of Si-H and Si-O shows the influence of oxidation process and indicates the stability of oxidized porous silicon dielectric reflector, which offers possible applications for the room temperature infrared sensor.

GZO陶瓷的拉曼光谱研究

采用固相烧结方法制备了纯ZnO陶瓷及GZO(Ga:ZnO)陶瓷。借助拉曼光谱和X射线衍射分别对ZnO陶瓷和不同掺Ga含量的GZO陶瓷进行了测量与分析。结果表明:GZO陶瓷均保持六角纤锌矿结构,在98cm-1,437cm-1处分别出现ZnO的特征峰E2(low)和E2(high);比之纯ZnO陶瓷,在GZO陶瓷的拉曼光谱中出现了位于584cm-1以及631cm-1附近的新峰,位于1148cm-1附近的E1(LO)的倍频模随着Ga掺杂浓度的提高也发生了一些变化。对新峰的振动模归属以及掺杂后原有峰的变化进行了讨论,其中将位于631cm-1附近的拉曼峰,归因于Ga替代Zn位与O成键的局域振动模式(LVMGa-O)。     

Spatiotemporal optical vortex wavepackets with phase singularities embedded in multiple domains

Spatiotemporal optical vortex(STOV) wavepacket carrying transverse photonic orbital angular momentum(OAM) has been extensively studied in the past few years. In this Letter, we propose and study a novel STOV wavepacket with multiple phase singularities embedded in different space–time domains using analytical and numerical approaches. By tuning different parameters used for designing the wavepacket, it is possible to engineer both the magnitude and orientation of the photonic OAM in space–time. ...     

均一球形PDP用荧光粉(Y,Gd)BO3:Eu的合成

利用共沉淀法通过控制稀土离子浓度、沉淀温度等得到稀土氧化物前驱体沉淀,再将其和H3BO3按化学计量比混合煅烧制备出了平均粒径在0．5～1．0μm的球形、粒径分布较小和无团聚的(Y,Gd)BO3：Eu荧光粉,其性能在一些方面优于商用荧光粉。利用X射线衍射、SEN、粒度分析仪和PL光谱进行表征。研究了不同的煅烧温度对荧光粉性能的影响,结果发现用本实验方法在800℃煅烧即可得到纯相的(Y,Gd)BO3：Eu。而传统固相合成纯相的(Y,Gd)BO3：Eu反应温度高达1200℃。因本方法工艺较易控制,适于在工业生产上推广。
