ABSTRACTTransport and magnetic properties of layered cobalt oxide (BiPb)2Sr3Co2O9 are investigated in detail under magnetic field up to 8 T. Parent compound, Bi2Sr3Co2O9, is a typical band insulator with Co ions being in a low-spin 3+ state because of the well-separated dε and dγ levels possibly due to a strong crystal field. We have tried to introduce holes mainly by Pb substitution for Bi. The hole-doped sample shows metallic behavior in a resistivity measurement between 300 and 30 K. Below 30 K, however, the resisitivity increases. Under the magnetic field the resistivity is strongly suppressed in this region. We observed more than 30% resistivity drop at 2 K under H = 8 T, which is comparable to insulating (La,Sr)CoO3 system. We discuss the mechanism of hole doping and the origin of negative magnetoresistance with tranport and magnetic properties, and point out that the conventional double-exchange mechanism cannot be applied to this system. This means that some new mechanism is necessary to explain this phenomenon.

For nanocrystalline alloy Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 thermomechanical treatment was carried out simultaneously with nanocrystallizing annealing (1) or after it (2). It was shown that a change in magnetic properties for the case 1 is essentially greater than for the case 2. Complex effect of thermomagnetic and thermomechanical treatments on magnetic properties was studied in the above-mentioned nanocrystalline alloy as well as in the amorphous alloy Fe5Co70.6Si15B9.4., During the annealings both field and stress were aligned with the long side of the specimens. It was shown that the magnetic field, AC or DC, decreases an effect of loading. Moreover, the magnetic field, AC or DC, applied after stress-annealing can destroy the magnetic anisotropy already induced under load.

The electronic structure and magnetic properties of diluted Ca[Formula: see text]TMxS (TM[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]V, Cr and Co) in the rocksalt structure at concentrations [Formula: see text], 0.125 and 0.25 were studied using the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave approximation of the density functional theory with the Wu-Cohen generalized gradient approximation (WC-GGA) and the Tran–Blaha-modified Becke–Johnson (TB-mBJ) potential. Features such as lattice constant, bulk modulus, spin-polarized band structures, total and local densities of states and magnetic properties have been computed. The electronic structure show that Ca[Formula: see text](V, Cr)xS at all the studied concentrations and the diluted Ca[Formula: see text]CoxS with [Formula: see text] compounds are half-metallic ferromagnets with spin polarization of 100%. The calculated total magnetic moments for Ca[Formula: see text]VxS and Ca[Formula: see text]CoxS show the same integer value of 3[Formula: see text][Formula: see text] per formula unit and Ca[Formula: see text]CrxS exhibit a total magnetic moment of 4[Formula: see text][Formula: see text], which confirm the half-metallic behavior of these compounds. We also calculated the values of the band edge spin splitting of the valence and conduction bands and the exchange constants. We have found that the ferromagnetic state is stable by the p-d exchange associated with the double-exchange mechanism. The diluted Ca[Formula: see text](V,Cr,Co)xS are found to be new promising candidates for spintronic applications.

The magnetic field of the Sun is mainly concentrated into intense magnetic flux tubes having field strengths of the order of 1 kG. In this paper an overview is given of the thermal and magnetic properties of these flux tubes, which are known to exhibit a large range in size, from the smallest magnetic elements to sunspots. Differences and similarities between the largest and smallest features are stressed. Some thoughts are also presented on how the properties of magnetic flux tubes are expected to scale from the solar case to that of solar-like stars. For example, it is pointed out that on giants and supergiants turbulent pressure may dominate over gas pressure as the main confining agent of the magnetic field. Arguments are also presented in favour of a highly complex magnetic geometry on very active stars. Thus the very large starspots seen in Doppler images probably are conglomerates of smaller (but possibly still sizable) spots.

A series of thin-film nanocomposites based on ferromagnetic metal Co and insulator SiO were prepared using an electron-beam method. The magnetoresistive and magnetic properties of these structures deposited at room temperature and then annealed to 700 K were investigated. The results showed that at the Co concentration 40 [Formula: see text]x [Formula: see text] 60 at.%, thin-film nanocomposites exhibit magnetoresistance (MR) that is conditional on spin-dependent tunnelling of electrons. This range of concentrations corresponds to the prepercolation area according to the magnetic investigations. For samples with x [Formula: see text] 70 at.%, the anisotropic character of MR peculiar to the homogeneous ferromagnetic materials appears. According to the magnetic properties study, this range of concentrations corresponds to the area after transition through the percolation threshold. The annealing process in temperature range from 300 K to 700 K in the magnetic field slightly influenced the magnetoresistive properties of the thin-film nanocomposites based on Co and SiO for all range of concentrations.

Transport phenomena in manganites (ABO3), and indirectly the transition temperature from metallic to insulator state (TMI), can be controlled by hole doping and the average ionic size at A positions (). In agreement with Zener theory, the strength of double exchange is determined by the Mn-O length (dMnO) and Mn-O-Mn angles () of the Mn-O-Mn bonds. We will investigate the influence of substitution of Mn with V on the crystalline structure and transport characteristics in La0.54Ho0.11Sr0.35Mn1-xVxO3 manganites. The samples were prepared by sol-gel method to improve the purity and homogeneity of the samples. By XRD it was established that the samples contain only ABO3 perovskite phases, except the samples with x0.1. The resistance of the samples vs temperature was determined by four probes method. The specific magnetization was obtained by using a Foner type magnetometer, working at 1.4 T, between 77 and 400 K.

AbstractThe magnetization and magnetic susceptibility of Bridgman-grown Pb1-xGdxTe have been measured over a temperature range from 2 to 300 K and in magnetic fields from 0.01 to 50 κOe. The x-values of the crystals ranged from 0.03 to 0.07. The magnetic susceptibility followed a Curie-Weiss behavior, χ = C/(T + θ), with positive θ implying an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between Gd ions. The magnetic field dependence of the magnetization was fitted to a modified Brillouin function with parameter values that agreed fairly well with those from Curie-Weiss plots. The magnitude of θ was comparable to the value found for Pb1-xMnxTe for similar x values; but since the ion spin is bigger for Gd this suggests that the exchange interaction in Gd-doped PbTe is roughly half the value in Mn-doped PbTe.

Effect of the magnetic field on the rate of phase breaking is studied. It is shown that the magnetic field resulting in the decrease of phase relaxation rate [Formula: see text] makes the negative magnetoresistance due to suppression of the electron interference to be smoother in shape and lower in magnitude than that found with constant [Formula: see text]-value. Nevertheless our analysis shows that experimental magnetoconductance curves can be well fitted by the Hikami–Larkin–Nagaoka expression.1 The fitting procedure gives the value of τ/τϕ, where τ is the quasi-momentum relaxation time, which is close to the value of τ/τϕ(B = 0) with an accuracy of 25% or better when the temperature varies within the range from 0.4 to 10 K. The value of the prefactor α found from this procedure lies within the interval 0.9–1.2.

Mechanical properties of polymer composite materials, containing ferromagnetic small dispersed particles of carbonyl iron that create structures along force lines of the magnetic field have been investigated. In paper the influence of the polymer matrix material and the orientation of ferromagnetic particles inside it on the properties of polymer composites are considered in the regimes of horizontal shear, vertical shear and periodical (sinusoidal) deformation of the samples. Magnetic properties at the change of magnetic field induction B in the range of 0 to 1 T are determined.
