ABSTRACTBy vapor-phase pyrolysis of Fe(CO) 5 and NH3 induced by CW CO2 laser, γ'-Fe4N and ε- Fe3N nanoparticles(≤35nm) were prepared in Ar and N2 atmospheres. In Ar, γ'-Fe4N accompanied by a little α-Fe was formed at low temperatures below 650°C, while higher temperatures favored the formation of γ-Fe. In N2 atmospheres, a mixture of Fe4N and Fe3N nanoparticles were obtained at high temperatures. In addition, the influences of synthesis parameters on the structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the nanoparticles were discussed.

ABSTRACTIron nitride thin films have potential applications in the biomedicine and energy. The magnetic properties of these films can be tuned by incorporating copper nitride. In this study, iron copper nitride thin films have been fabricated by magnetron sputtering technique either by co-sputtering iron nitride and copper nitride or by layer stacking of the materials. The structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the films have been studied by scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, x-ray reflectivity and vibrating sample magnetometry.

Magnetic properties of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7−Δy was investigated by dc- and ac-magnetic susceptibility as a function of oxygen deficiency Δy. The susceptibility in the normal state at low temperatures is dominated by the Curie-Weiss law, while the susceptibility at high temperatures deviates from the Curie-Weiss law. The deviations were successfully explained by assuming the triplet spin-pair excitation from the antiferromagnetically coupled Cu 2+ ions in the ground state.

The nano-crystalline iron nitride films with a mixture of γ- Fe 4 N , ε Fe 3 N and α Fe 2 N phases were synthesized on copper substrate by sol–gel technology. The structure, morphology and magnetic properties of the samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer. The films are ferromagnetic at room temperature. Magnetic properties such as coercive forces and saturation magnetization were found to be 398 Oestered and 32.92 emu/cm3, respectively.


Spurious kinks in estimated palaeogeotherms may result from small errors in the calibration of the geothermometers and geobarometers. New data indicate that the equilibrium solubility of alumina in enstatite is even less than shown by recent studies, and that the slopes (d T /d P ) of the isopleths of equal alumina content are steeper than hitherto believed. Consequently, pressures of equilibration estimated from current formulations of the orthopyroxene-garnet geobarometer will be too high at high temperatures (> 1200 °C) and too low at low temperatures.

Abstract Personality has been observed in a variety of animal taxa with important implications in ecology and evolution. Exploring the influence of environmental temperature during early life on personality could help to understand the ontogeny of this phenotypic trait in animals. In this study, we reared newborn mosquitofish Gambusia affinis at high (30°C) and low (25°C) water temperatures and measured their shyness and exploration upon sexual maturity. We tested the repeatability of each behavioral trait; the correlation between them; and the effects of rearing temperature, sex, and body length on the behaviors. When growing up at low temperatures, female fish exhibited repeatability in shyness and exploration, and males exhibited marginal repeatability in shyness. However, neither of the 2 behaviors were repeatable when the fish were reared at high temperatures. There was a negative correlation between shyness and exploration, indicating that the 2 behaviors comprise a behavioral syndrome in this species. Mosquitofish reared at high temperatures were more explorative than those reared at low temperatures, while there was no difference in shyness between the 2 treatments. Body length and sex had no significant effects on the average values of the 2 behaviors. The results indicate that environmental temperature during early life could shape the personality of mosquitofish and modify the average of the behavioral traits. These findings might provide insights to understand the ontogeny of animal personality and how changes in environmental temperature influence animal dispersal by shaping their personality.
