SummaryReflectivities of a series of oriented polished sections through a single crystal of pyrrhotine (Fe1−αS) from Trepča, Yugoslavia, were measured by means of a spectral photometer attached to a microscope. This pyrrhotine consists of two phases, namely intermediate pyrrhotine (∼ Fe9S10) and monoclinic pyrrhotine (∼ Fe7S8), which were probably formed by exsolution. The phase relations of pyrrhotine at low temperatures are discussed. Optical data are given for the intermediate pyrrhotine from 440 to 660 mµ. From the reflectivities measured in air and oil against a carborundum standard, values of n, k, and κ were calculated for ω and ε and represented in dispersion curves. Also, sections through the various ‘indicating surfaces’ at 546 mµ are shown. The accuracy of the values, which should be approximately the same for other pyrrhotine phases, is discussed.

ABSTRACTIn this work, we report the results of studies of the transverse magnetoresistance (MR) of single-crystal Bi nanowires with diameter d<80 nm. The single-crystal nanowire samples were prepared by the Taylor-Ulitovsky technique. Due to the semimetal-to-semiconductor transformation and high density of surface states with strong spin-orbit interactions, the charge carriers are confined to the conducting tube made of surface states. The non monotonic changes of transverse MR that are equidistant in a direct magnetic field were observed at low temperatures in a wide range of magnetic fields up to 14 T. The period of oscillations depends on the wire diameter d as for the case of longitudinal MR. An interpretation of transverse MR oscillations is presented.

The magnetic and magnetoresistive properties of nanostructured Fe/Cr multilayers with ultra-thin Fe layers (the nominal Fe thickness tFe is down to 0.3 Å) have been investigated at low temperatures (down to 2 K) in magnetic fields up to 90 kOe. Nanostructures were MBE grown in ultrahigh vacuum on single crystal MgO substrates. It is shown that Fe layers in nanostructures with tFe < 2 Å are not continuous but consist of separate ferromagnetic clusters. Such cluster-layered nanostructures exhibit superparamagnetic properties and the Kondo-like behavior of resistivity.
