Influence of a Magnetic Field on the Nonlinear Optical Susceptibility of NiI2-Doped CdI2 Single Crystals

The influence of treatment in a magnetic field at low temperatures on the nonlinear optical properties of NiI₂-doped CdI₂ single crystals is investigated. The impurity ions in the interlayer space or more complex centers into which these ions enter can align on exposure to a magnetic field due to the interaction with the membrane vibrations of the lattice and create residual polarization in a specimen. This polarization causes redistribution of the electric charge on the bonds and improves the nonlinear optical properties of single crystals.     

Influence of the Structure of an Inhomogeneously Broadened NMR Line on the Shape of the Free Precession Signal

We have obtained theoretically an expression for the nuclear free precession signal in an inhomogeneously broadened spin system with a complex structure of the NMR spectrum. It is shown that in this case in the nuclear precession signal there appear maxima the moments of whose formation depend on the detuning of the pulse carrier frequency from the central frequencies of the NMR lines, their widths, and the Rabi frequency. The theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental data on the observation of proton free precession in toluene. We have constructed a physical model explaining the appearance of maxima in the free precession signal of the spin system.     

Investigation of Hyperfine Interactions in CeIn3 byTDPAC

Magnetic hyperfine fields (mhf) at ¹¹¹Cd and ¹⁴⁰Ce nuclei, dilutely substituting the In and Ce sites, respectively, have been measured in the intermetallic compound CeIn₃ using perturbed angular correlation technique. A pure electric quadrupole interaction with an axially symmetric electric field gradient was observed at ¹¹¹In(EC)¹¹¹Cd probe nuclei at room temperature while a combined magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole interaction is observed below 10K. Below the ordering temperature, only a magnetic interaction is observed at ¹⁴⁰La(^–)¹⁴⁰Ce probe. The values of mhf measured experimentally as a function of temperature are discussed in terms of critical behavior.     

Magnetic Properties of Np2Ir2In Investigated by 237Np Mössbauer Spectroscopy

The present study of Np₂Ir₂In completes the ²³⁷Np Mössbauer spectroscopy investigations of Np₂T₂X (T = Co, Rh, Ir, Ni, Pd, Pt; X = In, Sn) compounds. Np₂Ir₂In is found to order at T _ord30 K and the complex Mössbauer spectra suggest the occurrence of a noncollinear modulated magnetic structure with an average magnetic moment on the neptunium _Np0.76 _B. The magnetic properties of Np₂Ir₂In are consistent with the general trends observed in the An₂T₂X (An =U, Np) isostructural family.     

NMR of Colossal Magnetoresistive Manganites and Expanded Lattice Intermetallics at High Pressure

A survey is given of NMR studies of colossal magnetoresistive manganese perovskites (RE,Ca,Sr,Ba)MnO₃ (RE = rare earth) and the interstitially modified permanent magnet materials, RE₂Fe₁₇A _x (A = N,C,H) at ambient pressure and at applied pressures of up to 10 kbar. The different pressure behavior of the Mn hyperfine field found in the metallic and in the insulating manganite compounds is discussed and related to the micro- and macroscopic properties of these magnetically inhomogeneous materials. In the RE₂Fe₁₇A _x compounds a different pressure behavior of the hyperfine field at the RE sites with different number and type of interstitial atom neighbors is discussed in terms of local compressibility. The influence of the interstitial modification and the applied pressure on the RE hyperfine field and quadrupole splitting is analyzed and the impact of the chemical pressure and covalent effects on these quantities is compared. A comparison of the behavior of the magnetic state of the 4f electron shell with pressure and with interstitial modification is made and the relation to the magnetocrystalline anisotropy is discussed.     

Residual 31P, 35,37Cl dipolar coupling in 31P MAS spectra of chlorocyclophosphazenes

In ³¹P MAS NMR spectra of chlorocyclophosphazenes, characteristic splittings have been observed for PCl or PCl₂ groups. At different applied magnetic fields, the fine structure and total width of the patterns change in a characteristic way, demonstrating that the splittings are due to indirect spin–spin and residual dipolar interactions with the chlorine nuclei directly bonded to phosphorus. For trans-nongeminal N₃P₃Cl₃(NMe₂)₃ and N₃P₃Cl₆ as examples, the spectra have been analyzed to obtain information on chlorine nuclear quadrupole coupling constants and ^35,37Cl, ³¹P indirect spin–spin coupling constants. Neglect of these interactions may result in misinterpretations of the multiplicity in ³¹P MAS spectra of chlorophosphazenes.     

High-field high-speed MAS resolution enhancement in 1H NMR spectroscopy of solids

Resolution in ¹H NMR spectra of solids can be significantly enhanced with fast magic-angle spinning and high magnetic fields. A variable field and spinning speed study up to 25 T and 40 kHz shows that the homogeneous line broadening is inversely proportional to the product of magnetic field strength and spinning speed. The combination of high field and fast speed yields a ¹H linewidth approaching the intrinsic limit determined by anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility. An analysis of the anisotropic magnetic susceptibility line broadening is presented.

Effect of Addition of MTES on the Structure of Siloxane-PPG Nanocomposites

Hybrid transparent and flexible siloxane-polypropyleneglycol (PPG) materials with covalent bonds between the inorganic (siloxane) and organic (polymeric) phases were prepared by sol-gel process. In order to improve the quality of the mechanical properties of these materials, different amounts of methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) were added to the initial sol. The effect of MTES addition on the structure of the composites was studied by Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering (SAXS) and ²⁹Si Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (²⁹Si NMR). In absence of MTES, SAXS spectra exhibit a peak that is assigned to spatial correlation due to short range order between the siloxane clusters embedded in the polymeric phase. The experimental results indicate that, for low MTES concentrations ([MTES]/[O] 0.8, O: ether-type oxygen of PPG), the silicon species resulting from hydrolysis and condensation of MTES fill the open spaces between polymeric chains, interacting with the ether-type oxygens. For larger MTES content ([MTES]/[O] 0.8), the number of free ether-type oxygen sites avalaible for reaction with such silicon species is not large enough. Consequently, a fraction of silicon species resulting from MTES addition graft to siloxane clusters formed by hydrolysis and condensation of the hybrid precursor. For all MTES concentrations the condensation degree of the siloxane phase, determined from ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy, is high (>69%), as expected under neutral pH synthesis conditions.     

Evidence of red cell alignment in the magnetic field of an NMR spectrometer based on the diffusion tensor of water

The alignment of human erythrocytes in aqueous suspensions in the magnetic field B(0) (called the z-direction) of an NMR spectrometer was shown by calculating the diffusion tensor for water in the sample. The diffusion was measured using a pulsed-field-gradient spin-echo NMR method. The extent of diffusion anisotropy for water was exemplified by the values of the apparent diffusion coefficients with erythrocytes of normal shape and volume: for a typical experiment the values for the x-, y-, and z-directions were (6.88 +/- 0.17) x 10(-10), (7.07 +/- 0.17) x 10(-10), and (10.20 +/- 0.17) x 10(-10) m(2) s(-1), respectively. Cells in hypo- and hyperosmotic media were also studied and they too showed the anisotropy of the apparent diffusion coefficients but the extents were different. A new method of data analysis was developed using the Standard Add-On Packages in a Mathematica program. The experimental findings support evidence of erythrocyte alignment that was previously obtained with a high-field-gradient q-space method.
