Magnetic susceptibility of liquid gold-indium-zinc alloys

Summary Alloys of the ternary system gold-indium-zinc with a variable content of goldx _Au at a constant ratio ofx _In:x _Zn=1:1 have been investigated by susceptibility measurements from 300 K up to 1500 K with emphasis on the liquid state. The magnetic susceptibilities of the homogeneous liquids were found to vary in a non-linear manner with temperature and composition. At temperatures close to the liquid-solid transition, the susceptibilities pass through a characteristic minimum which tends to disappear with increasing temperature. The anomaly located atx _Au 0.6 seems to be related to a particular valence electron concentration ofe/a 1.6.

Magnetische Suszeptibilität von flüssigen Gold-Indium-Zink-Legierungen

Zusammenfassung Legierungen des ternären Systems Gold-Indium-Zink mit einem variablen Goldgehaltx _Au bei konstantem Indium-Zink-Verhältnis (x _In:x _Zn=1:1) wurden zwischen 300 und 1500 K auf ihre magnetische Suszeptibilität untersucht. Das Hauptaugenmerk wurde dabei auf den flüssigen Zustand gelegt. Die magnetischen Suszeptibilitäten der homogenen Schmelzen variieren nichtlinear mit Temperatur und Zusammensetzung. Bei Temperaturen nahe dem übergang flüssig-fest tritt ein charakteristisches Minimum der Suszeptibilität auf, das mit steigender Temperatur verschwindet. Die Anomalie bei einemx _Au vonca. 0.6 scheint mit einer speziellen Valenzelektronenkonzentration (e/a) von etwa 1.6 verknüpft zu sein.

Magnetic exchange interactions in tetrabromocuprate compounds

Magnetic and structural data for 28 compounds containing the tetrabromocuprate ion are presented. The parameters which affect the strength and sign of the magnetic superexchange interaction via non-bonding contacts between bromide ions are described and a system for describing the topology of the interaction between tetrahedra is proposed. Analysis of the data suggests that the primary factors affecting the magnetic exchange are the Br?Br distance, the Cu-Br?Br angle and the Cu-Br?Br-Cu dihedral angle.

Hexagonal Ferrites from Melts and Aqueous Solutions,Magnetic Recording Materials

Owing to their particular crystallographic properties, ferrimagnetic hexagonal ferrites exhibit a far greater coercive force than the conventional magnetic pigments. They therefore appear to be suitable for use in magnetic information storage procedures, some of which are novel and are at the development stage. Thus, magnetic tapes of high coercive force containing barium ferrite could be used as master tapes for copying magnetic information or for producing forgery-proof magnetic cards, if magnetic heads having high-order write fields were successfully developed. Moreover, platelet-like ferrite pigments in which the preferred direction of magnetic orientation is perpendicular to the plane of the platelet are of great interest for perpendicular magnetic recording. In this progress report, the crystal structures, magnetic characteristics of hexagonal ferrites, and chemical processes for their production are discussed. In particular, reactions in salt melts or under hydrothermal conditions produce finely divided pigments whose particles have a pronounced hexagonal, plate-like habit, a narrow particle size distribution, and advantageous magnetic properties. The magnetic properties of the pigments crystallized from salt melts may be adjusted by cation exchange.     

Crystal structure, oxidation state and magnetism of La1.2Sr2.4RuO7: a new member of the [A2O][AnBn−1O3n] series of hexagonal perovskites

Single crystals of the new compound La_1.2Sr_2.4RuO₇, an oxide related to the hexagonal perovskites, were grown from a BaCl₂ flux. The structure was solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction. La_1.2Sr_2.4RuO₇ crystallizes in the space group with a=5.760(1) Å and c=18.273(3) Å. It is one of the rare examples of oxides with isolated RuO₆-octahedra. The structure consists of alternating layers of RuO₆-octahedra and trigonal (La,Sr)O₆-prisms. These prisms are capped by one additional oxygen ion, which occupies a distorted position within the (La,Sr)O₆-layers. La_1.2Sr_2.4RuO₇ is the second member of the general [A₂O][A_nB_n−1O_3n] family of hexagonal perovskites with n=2 and the first ruthenate possessing this structure. XANES investigations, bond valence sum calculations and magnetic measurements show that ruthenium takes the oxidation state +5. Although the ruthenium ions have quite long distances, a medium strong antiferromagnetic interaction between these paramagnetic centers was observed.     

Creation of highly functional thin films using electrochemical nanotechnology

This overview describes the results of our recent study of the application of electrochemical nanotechnology to the fabrication of magnetic recording materials, interconnects in ultra-large-scale integrated (ULSI) devices, energy storage materials, and on-chip biosensors. It is important to note that electrochemical processes play significant roles in developing and fabrication such sophisticated materials and devices. In the field of magnetic recording, electrodeposition methods for preparing CoNiFe and CoFe soft magnetic thin films with a high saturation magnetic flux density were newly developed, and the significant issues for obtaining those films are highlighted. In the area of ULSI interconnects, we developed a technique using a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) for direct bonding of the interconnect layer to SiO2, and proposed a novel electroless deposition method for fabricating a diffusion barrier layer. In the field of batteries, electrodeposited SnNi alloy was proposed as a future anode material for Li batteries, and electrochemical MEMS processes were shown to be useful for fabricating micro-sized direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) as portable batteries for electronics applications. In the area of chemical sensors, we developed a new process for fabricating field effect transistors (FETs) modified with SAMs for on-chip biosensing applications.

Can magnetic circular dichroism tackle the problem of site symmetry in solutions?

A new approach to unravel the site symmetry of lanthanides in solutions is presented. The magnetic circular dichroism spectra of Eu³⁺ in the symmetries D_3h, C_4v and D_2d are simulated. In these simulations, the main idea is to introduce the magnetic field along a 3-fold axis, being the resultant of the three equivalent X-, Y- and Z-direction of a cube. This implies that the parallel and perpendicular Zeeman effects are taken into account simultaneously.
