We have investigated the low-temperature magnetoresistive properties of a thin epitaxial Pd0.92Fe0.08 film at different directions of the current and the applied magnetic field. The obtained experimental results are well described within an assumption of a single-domain magnetic state of the film. In a wide range of the appled field directions, the magnetization reversal proceeds in two steps via the intermediate easy axis. An epitaxial heterostructure of two magnetically separated ferromagnetic layers, Pd0.92Fe0.08/Ag/Pd0.96Fe0.04, was synthesized and studied with the dc magnetometry. Its magnetic configuration diagram has been constructed and the conditions have been determined for a controllable switching between stable parallel, orthogonal, and antiparallel arrangements of magnetic moments of the layers.

Crystallographic Orientations

We have measured the differential current-voltage characteristics of normal metal-NbSe3 direct point contacts (without insulating barrier) formed along different crystallographic orientations under applied magnetic field with different orientations. At low temperature two energy gaps, $\Delta_{p1}$ and $\Delta_{p2}$, corresponding to the high and the low-temperature CDW were observed simultaneously as a singulanty of the excess resistance which is attributed to an analog of Andreev reflection, in which the incident electron reflects on the Peierls energy gap barriers with its charge unchanged. An applied magnetic field up to 8.5 T does not lead to a change in the density of states and in the Peierls energy gaps, suggesting that the large magnetoresistance observed in NbSe3 might not result from the change in the CDW order parameter with magnetic field but rather from the increase of scattering of non-condensed to CDW carriers.

Mgo Substrate

We investigated the structure, magnetic and magnetoresistive properties of antiferromagnetically coupled [Fe(85Å)/Cr(tCr)]12 superlattices with the Cr layers thickness tCr = 12.4 and 13.6 Å, grown simultaneously on (100)MgO and (211)MgO substrates. It is shown that the (211)MgO substrate is appropriate for the growth of (210)Fe/Cr multilayers with a strong uniaxial in-plane anisotropy. The stepwise behavior of magnetization and magnetoresistance is revealed in the case when the magnetic field is applied along the easy axis in a film plane of (211)MgO/[(210)Fe/Cr]12 superlattices. The steps on M(H) and ΔR(H)/R dependences are caused by the flip of the magnetic moments of individual Fe layers. The qualitative information about the sequence of spin-flip transitions is extracted from the comparative analysis of magnetization and magnetoresistance data.

Single crystals of trigonal neodymium scandoborate NdSc3(BO3)4 were grown by the group method from a solution-melt based on bismuth trimolybdate. The molar heat capacity C(T) was studied in the temperature range 2-300 K and magnetic fields up to 9 T. The experimental curve was approximated by the combined Debye-Einstein model. The lattice contribution was determined from ab-initio calculations. Schottky anomaly was observed in the low-temperature region C(T) with the applied magnetic field.

The Magnetic Field

We have investigated the internal aggregate structures of a colloidal suspension composed of magnetic plate-like particles with a magnetic moment normal to the particle axis by means of three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations. In concrete, we have attempted to clarify the influences of the magnetic field strength, magnetic interactions between particles, and volumetric fraction of particles, on particle aggregation phenomena. In order to discuss quantitatively the aggregate structures of particles, we have focused on the radial distribution and orientational pair correlation function. For no applied magnetic field cases, long column-like clusters are formed as magnetic particle-particle interactions increase. Characteristics of these clusters are that particles incline in a certain direction with their magnetic moments alternating in direction between the neighboring particles. For applied magnetic field cases, the magnetic moments of the particles incline in the magnetic field direction, so that the columnar clusters are not formed. The brick wall-like aggregates are formed as the influences of the magnetic field and magnetic particle-particle interactions become significantly dominant.

High Magnetic Fields

We report low-temperature magnetotransport in the normal state of the electron-doped superconductors, Nd 2-x Ce x CuO 4, Pr 2-x Ce x CuO 4, and La 2-x Ce x CuO 4, by suppressing the superconductivity with high magnetic fields. The normal state ρ-T curve shows an up-turn at low temperatures, which has a log T dependence with saturation at lowest temperatures. The up-turn is gradually suppressed with increasing magnetic field, resulting in negative magnetoresistance. We discuss these findings on the basis of the Kondo scattering originating from the magnetic moments of Cu 2+ ions.

Ba Substitution

Polycrystalline samples of double layered (DL) manganite system La 1.2( Sr 1-x Ba x)1.8 Mn 2 O 7(0.0≤×≤0.4) were prepared by the sol-gel method. The anisotropic lattice expansion is observed with the substitution of Ba 2+ into Sr 2+ sites. The electrical resistivity and magnetoresistance (MR) measurements were carried out over the temperature range 4.2 K–300 K. The substitution of Ba results in the suppression of T IM , insulator-to-metal transition temperature. A low temperature upturn of resistivity is seen in all the samples of the system, which is attributed to the spin-glass-like transition. The conduction mechanism above T IM is explained by Mott variable range hopping (VRH) mechanism. The variation of MR with temperature and applied magnetic field is discussed. From the temperature dependent MR curves, it is observed that the large MR values are present over a wide temperature range and the maximum MR values occur at [Formula: see text]. The x=0.4 sample exhibits ~31% of MR with the application of a mere 0.4 T field at 5 K, which accounts for ~35% enhancement of MR of parent compound (~23% of MR% at 0.4 T at 5 K). The MR — H data is fitted to the power law ρ = ρ0-αHn, and it is found that the low temperature MR varies as square root of the applied magnetic field, as expected in conventional metals.

Ferromagnetism being known to have a detrimental effect on superconductivity, we consider the Josephson current amplitude for junctions built up of antiferromagnetic metallic weak links. It is assumed that the latter consist of ferromagnetic layers with magnetizations aligned alternatively along perpendicular-to-the-layers direction. Currents between two superconducting electrodes flow along the layers. Such antiferromagnetic structure realizes itself in mixed valence manganites (the so-called A-phase), in an array of parallel ferromagnetic domains, or even in artificial GMR heterostructures. It is shown that even minor canting of magnetic moments in the presence of magnetic fields causes remarkable oscillations in the value of the Josephson current amplitude.

Low Temperature Specific Heat

Specific-heat measurements on single-crystalline samples of U ( Pt 1− x Pd x )3 ( x = 0.00, 0.05 and 0.10) reveal anomalously large values for c/T at low temperatures. The data for UPt 3 have previously been analyzed by making use of the enhanced value of the low-temperature Grüneisen parameter. By this analysis, the heavy-electron contribution to the specific heat has been separated from the normal part that is largely due to the phonon term. Taking this latter term to be the same for all three compounds, the heavy-electron contribution has been evaluated for temperatures below 20 K. This contribution is compared with a spin-1/2 Kondo-type of specific heat. The resulting curves for the x = 0.00 and x = 0.10 alloys are very similar and mainly differ in the temperature at which the maximum is found. The effect of an applied magnetic field within the hexagonal plane, however, shifts the maximum to lower temperatures for x = 0.00 whereas for x = 0.10 a shift towards higher temperatures is found.
