Reentrant Spin Glass Behaviour and CE-Type Antiferromagnetic Phase in Half Doping （La,Pr）1／2Ca1／2 MnO3 Manganites

The reentrant spin glass behaviour was observed in half doping (La,Pr)1/2Ca1/2MnO3 manganites with a CEtype antiferromagnetic structure. It shows sequential multiple magnetic transitions from the paramagnetic to the ferromagnetic, antiferromagnetic, spin glass (SG) transitions, which reflects the complex magnetic interaction in the ground state of manganites. This can be explained by the competition interaction between the ferromagnetic and the CE-type antiferromagnetic matrix, and the disorder due to the tolerance factor t and A-cation size variance σ^2. The results reveals the coexistence of ferromagnetic clusters and SG clusters in the background of the antiferromagnetic matrix in the ground state of half doping (Pr,La)1/2Ca1/2MnO3 systems.     

Point Contact Andreev Reflection Measurement of the Spin Polarization of Ferromagnetic Alloy NiFeSb

We have studied the temperature-dependent and barrier-strength-dependent Andreev reflection tunnelling spectroscopy with point contacts consisting of the newly synthesized half-metallic alloy NiFeSb and a Nb tip.By fitting the data to the generalized Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk theory,a spin polarization P=0.52 has been obtained.     

Incommensurate Antiferromagnetism in the Extended t－J Model

The effect of the extra second neighbor hopping t‘ on the incommensurate spin correlation in the t-J model in the underdoped regime is studied within the fermion-spin theory.It is shown that although the extra second neighbor hopping t‘ is systematically accompanied with the increasing of the weight of the incommensurate peaks in the dynamical spin structure factor,for the physical reasonable small value of t‘ the qualitative behavior of the incommensurate spin correlation in the t-t‘-J model is the same as in the case of t-J model.

半金属材料的一个重要特征为具有高达100%的传导电子自旋极化率。半金属磁性材料是一种具有极大的应用潜能的自旋电子学材料。本文从半金属性的来源、材料的晶体结构、半金属的电子态和电磁特性等不同角度对半金属材料进行了系统分类。对现已发现的几种半金属材料的基本性质和原子结构特征进行了综述。分别对5种传导电子自旋极化率的测量方法进行了分析和讨论。     

Surface Spins Pinning Effect on the Magnetic Properties in Co3O4 Nanocrystallites Covered with Polymer Decomposition Residues

We prepare two kinds of Co3O4 antiferromagnetic nanocrystallite systems with different surface structures: one grain surface is covered by polymer decomposition residues (PDRs) (referred to as CS) and the other is naked (NS). It has been found that the magnetic properties of the CS sample deviate greatly from those of the NS     

C、N、O掺杂CuBr和CuCl的电子结构和磁性的第一性原理研究

本文基于密度泛函理论(DFT)结合广义梯度近似(GGA),采用第一性原理的平面波赝势方法,探究非磁性sp元素(C、N和O)掺杂卤化物(Cu Cl和Cu Br)是否能诱导产生半金属铁磁性.通过计算体系总能量、能带、态密度和分态密度,分析了非磁性元素掺杂卤化物体系的电子结构和磁性;通过对材料加压,给出了体系铁磁性随压强变化的趋势并作了分析.最后计算显示,O和N掺杂能诱导Cu Cl产生稳定的半金属铁磁性,随着压强的增大Cu Cl0.75N0.25和Cu Cl0.75O0.25的铁磁性减弱最终发生磁相变由铁磁态(FM)转变为非铁磁态(NM).     

高压下有序晶态合金Fe3Pt的低能声子不稳定性及磁性反常

有序晶态Fe₃Pt因瓦合金处于一种特殊的磁临界状态, 这种磁临界状态下体系的晶格动力学稳定性对压力极为敏感. 基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理的投影缀加平面波方法研究了不同晶态合金的Fe₃Pt的焓和磁性随压力的变化规律, 结果表明, 在压力小于18.54 GPa下, P4/mbm结构是热力学稳定的相. Pm3m结构、I4/mmm结构、DO₂₂结构的Fe₃Pt在铁磁性坍塌临界压力附近体系的总磁矩急剧下降并具有振荡现象, 且I4/mmm结构和DO₂₂结构的Fe₃Pt 在临界压力附近出现了Fe1原子磁矩反转现象. 在43 GPa下, DO₂₂结构的Fe₃Pt出现了亚铁磁微观磁特性突然增强且伴随着体积突然增大的现象. 在高压下, 对Pm3m结构Fe₃Pt的晶格动力学计算表明, 压力小于26.95 GPa的铁磁态下体系的自发磁化诱导了体系横向声学支声子软化, 表明体系中存在很强的自发体积磁致伸缩. 特别是在铁磁性坍塌临界压力41.9 GPa至磁性完全消失的57.25 GPa压力区间, 晶格动力学稳定性对压力更加敏感. 压力大于57.25 GPa时, 压力诱导了体系声子谱的稳定.     

寻找非粒子

美国物理学家通过一项新的研究得出结论说,在长距离上两个粒子自旋之间可能存在着微弱的相互作用力,其证据可能隐藏在地表下面磁化的铁中。他们利用地球贮存的大量自旋极化的粒子,计算出像非粒子(unparticles)那样的不寻常的实体所引起的相互作用强度的精密极限。粒子的内秉角动量或称"自旋",使粒子具有磁矩,而自旋之间的相互作用产生磁性。铁磁性物质(比如铁),当其原子中的某些电子的自旋排列起
