Microstructures and soft magnetic properties of Fe80P20-xSix (x = 4.5–6.5) amorphous ribbons

Fe-based amorphous ribbons with excellent soft magnetic properties and mechanical properties were prepared in the Fe–Si–P ternary system. Enhanced soft magnetic properties could be achieved through annealing treatment of the ribbons for 1 h at 325 °C, which is far below the glass transition temperatures (462–474 °C). Icosahedral medium-range ordering with a size range of around 2 nm occurred throughout the amorphous matrix during the low-temperature annealing treatment. The annealed ribbons exhibited improved magnetic saturation of over 185 emu/g while maintaining good mechanical flexibility. During icosahedral ordering, the distance between the Fe atoms and the coordination number within the amorphous ribbon can be optimised for achieving high magnetic saturation. However, nanocrystallisation of the SiP and Fe₂P transition phases embedded within the amorphous matrix occurred after the annealing treatment for 1 h at 385 °C, which caused deterioration of the soft magnetic properties and mechanical flexibility of the ribbons. Therefore, the combination of high magnetic saturation and mechanical flexibility of the amorphous ribbons could be optimised through low-temperature annealing treatment without any nanocrystallisation.     

Magnetic field effect on free and bound excitons in chalcopyrite CuInS<Subscript>2</Subscript>

The effect of a strong magnetic field (induction up to 10 T) on free and bound excitons in CuInS₂ single crystals is studied. A diamagnetic shift to higher energies is observed in the luminescence and reflectance spectra for free-exciton lines A_LPB ≈ 1.5348 eV, A_UPB ≈ 1.5361 eV, and BC ≈ 1.557 eV. The diamagnetic shifts of free-exciton lines A_LPB, A_UPB, and BC provide a basis for estimating the exciton reduced masses = 0.131m₀, = 0.13 4m₀, and μ_BC = 0.111m₀, respectively. Bound-exciton lines in luminescence spectra are split under the influence of the magnetic field. The magnitude of the Zeeman effect (g-factor of the magnetic splitting) is estimated. __________ Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Spektroskopii Vol. 74, No. 3, pp. 373–377, May–June, 2007.     

Langmuir-Blodgett self-assembly and electrochemical catalytic property of FePt magnetic nano-monolayer

Dispersed-well FePt nanoparticles with particle size ~5 nm have been prepared by hydrazine hydrate reduction of H₂PtCl₆·6H₂O and FeCl₂·4H₂O in ethanol–water system. By employing as-synthesized FePt nanoparticles, the monolayer can be formed by LB Technique. The structural, magnetic properties and electrochemical properties of FePt monolayer were respectively studied by XRD, TEM, VSM and CHI 820 electrochemical workstation. The as-synthesized particle has a chemically disordered fcc structure and can be transformed into chemically ordered fct structure after annealing treatment above 400°C. The coercivity of ordered fct FePt phase can be up to 2515Oe. CVs of 0.5 M H₂SO₄/0.5M CH₃OH on GCE modified with FePt nanoparticles monolayer films illustrate that the as-synthesized FePt is a kind of active electrochemical catalyst.     

Temperature dependence of the Ho L2‐edge XMCD spectra of Ho6Fe23

An X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) study performed at the Ho L_2,3‐edges in Ho₆Fe₂₃ as a function of temperature is presented. It is demonstrated that the anomalous temperature dependence of the Ho L₂‐edge XMCD signal is due to the magnetic contribution of Fe atoms. By contrast, the Ho L₃‐edge XMCD directly reflects the temperature dependence of the Ho magnetic moment. By combining the XMCD at both Ho L₂‐ and L₃‐edges, the possibility of determining the temperature dependence of the Fe magnetic moment is demonstrated. Then, both μ_Ho(T) and μ_Fe(T) have been determined by tuning only the absorption L‐edges of Ho. This result opens new possibilities of applying XMCD at these absorption edges to obtain quantitative element‐specific magnetic information that is not directly obtained by other experimental tools.     

Bianchi Type V Magnetized String Dust Bulk Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model with Variable Magnetic Permeability

Bianchi Type V magnetized string dust bulk viscous fluid cosmological model with variable magnetic permeability, is investigated. The magnetic field is due to an electric current produced along x-axis. Thus the magnetic fields is in yz-plane and F ₂₃ is the only non-vanishing component of electromagnetic field tensor F _ij . To get the deterministic model in terms of cosmic time t, we have also assumed the condition ζ θ=constant where ζ the coefficient of bulk viscosity and θ the expansion in the model. The behaviour of the model in presence and absence of magnetic field and bulk viscosity and singularities in the model are also discussed.

Comparative study of heterogeneous magnetic state above TC in La0.82Sr0.18CoO3 cobaltite and La0.83Sr0.17MnO3 manganite

The magnetic, transport and structural properties are studied for La_0.83Sr_0.17MnO₃ and La_0.82Sr_0.18CoO₃ single crystals with nearly the same doping and the metallic ground state. Their comparisons have shown that ferromagnetic clusters originate in the paramagnetic matrix below Т^?>T_C in both samples and exhibit similar properties. This suggests the possible universality of such phenomena in doped mixed-valence oxides of transition metals with the perovskite-type structure. The cluster density increases on cooling and plays an important role on the physical properties of these systems. The differences in cluster evolutions and scenarios of their insulator–metal transitions are related to different magnetic behaviors of the matrixes in these crystals that is mainly due to distinct spin states of the Mn³⁺ and Co³⁺ ions.     

Origin of the X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism at the L‐edges of the rare‐earths in RxR1−x′Al2 systems

An X‐ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) study performed at the rare‐earth L_2,3‐edges in the R_xR_1?x′Al₂ compounds is presented. It is shown that both R and R′ atoms contribute to the XMCD recorded at the L‐edges of the selected rare‐earth, either R or R′. The amplitude of the XMCD signal is not directly correlated to the magnetization or to the value of the individual (R, R′) magnetic moments, but it is related to the molecular field acting on the rare‐earth tuned in the photoabsorption process. This result closes a longstanding study of the origin of the XMCD at the L‐edge of the rare‐earths in multi‐component systems, allowing a full understanding of the exact nature of these signals.     

Perpendicular magnetic recording—Its development and realization—

The principle of conventional magnetic recording is that magnetic fields are applied parallel to the plane of the magnetic medium. As described in this paper, the invention and development of a new method of placing the magnetized information perpendicular to the plane of the magnetic recording medium is presented. The yield in the mass production of high-density hard disk drives (HDDs) for perpendicular recording is much higher than that of HDDs for conventional recording. Consequently, it is estimated that as many as 75% of the 500 million HDDs to be shipped this year will use this technology.
