Aligned CuO nanorod arrays: fabrication and anisotropic ferromagnetism

Copper oxide (CuO) is a p-type semiconductor with a band gap of 1.2 eV, which is well known in high-temperature superconductor and antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials through Cu–O–Cu super-exchange interaction. In this paper, we report the strong anisotropic ferromagnetism (FM) in aligned CuO nanorod arrays synthesized by a microwave-assisted hydrothermal method. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image shows that the CuO nanorod consists of a large number of smaller nanorods with almost the same growth direction. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern indicates that the CuO nanorods are well crystallized with highly preferred orientation of the [020] direction. These CuO nanorod arrays show room-temperature ferromagnetism, with strong magnetic anisotropy when the magnetic field is applied perpendicular or parallel to the rod axis. This phenomenon of room-temperature ferromagnetism in those aligned CuO nanorods might originate from uncompensated surface spins and shape anisotropy of the nanorods.     

The structural and multiferroic properties of (Bi1−xLax)(Fe0.95Co0.05)O3 ceramics

La and Co co-doped BiFeO₃ ((Bi_1−xLa_x)(Fe_0.95Co_0.05)O₃ (x=0, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30)) ceramics were prepared by tartaric acid modified sol–gel method. The X-ray diffraction patterns indicate a transition from rhombohedral structure to tetragonal structure at x=0.20, which has been confirmed by the Raman measurements. The band gap increases with increasing x to 0.20, and then decreases with further increasing x to 0.30. The structural transition has significant effects on the multiferroic properties. The remnant magnetization and saturate ferromagnetic magnetization decrease abruptly with increasing x to 0.10, and then gradually increase with further increasing x up to 0.30. The coercivity is significantly reduced with increasing La doping concentration. The ferroelectricity has been improved by La doping, and the polarization increases with increasing x to 0.10, then decreases with further increasing x up to 0.30. The simultaneous coexistence of soft ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity at room temperature in tetragonal Bi_0.70La_0.30Fe_0.95Co_0.05O₃ indicates the potential multiferroic applications.     

Analysis of and numerical schemes for a mouse population model in Hantavirus epidemics

This paper considers a non-linear system of ordinary differential equations, which arises in the study of hantavirus epidemics. The system has the property that the total population obeys the logistic equation. For this system, we use linearization and the dynamical properties of the logistic equation to analyze the dynamics of the subpopulation system. In view of the usual numerical instabilities associated with standard finite difference methods used for simulating such systems, we construct non-standard finite difference (NSFD) schemes, which preserve the dynamic properties of the system, and may therefore be used for its simulation.

The multiferroic properties of Bi(Fe0.95Co0.05)O3 films

Bi(Fe_0.95Co_0.05)O₃ films were prepared on conductive indium tin oxide (ITO)/glass substrates by chemical solution deposition. Well saturated polarization hysteresis loop has been observed with a remnant polarization value of about 22 μC/cm² at room temperature. Weak ferromagnetism with saturation magnetization of about 3 emu/cm³ was observed at room temperature. The clear observation of both room temperature ferroelectric and ferromagnetic properties suggests the potential multiferroic applications of Bi(Fe_0.95Co_0.05)O₃.
