The effect of Fe-substitution at the Mn-site in La0.7Ca0.3Mn1-xFexO3 (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03 and 0.05) on its structure, electrical and magnetic properties has been studied. These properties were investigated via X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, temperature-dependent resistance measurements and temperature-dependent AC magnetic susceptibility measurements. XRD analysis showed all samples are single phase materials. Temperature dependent resistance measurements between 30–300 K showed all samples to undergo insulator-metal transition as temperature decreases. Increase in Fe doping for x = 0, 0.01, 0.03 and 0.05 caused the transition temperature TIM to decrease from 257 K, 244 K, 205 K and 162 K respectively. The magnetic susceptibility measurements showed the samples to exhibit paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transition as temperature decreased. Increase in Fe substitution x at the Mn-site progressively decreased the Curie temperature TC from 250 K at x = 0 to 170 K at x = 0.05.

ABSTRACTThin films of lanthanum manganates doped with Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+ and Pb2+ have been deposited on Si(100) substrate and their electrical and magnetic properties were discussed with respect to the composition, structure and nature of the dopant. Buffer layers of YSZ and La0.8Al0.2O3 were employed and their effect on the materials was studied. Interesting magnetotransport properties were found in some of the films, where there is a large difference between the insulator-metal transition temperature and a ferromagnetic transition temperature.

ABSTRACTLa-Ba-Cu-O and Y-Ba-Cu-O superconducting systems have been successfully prepared by gel techniques with high degree of chemical homogeneity. The precursor gel was synthesized from mixture of the corresponding metallic nitrates and di-carboxylic acids. The sintered oxides prepared from the different dicarboxylic acids were all Tc = 90K perovskite superconductors. However differences in electrical and magnetic properties were also observed. Effects due to the different acids elucidated by magnetic susceptibility measurements and X-ray diffraction analysis will be discussed.

The electrical and magnetic properties of ( Y 1-x-y Zr x Ca y) Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ ceramics are investigated by using resistivity, ac and dc susceptibility measurements. X-ray powder diffraction has been used to find the lattice parameters of the samples. The samples are orthorhombic, except the sample with x=0.15 and y=0.2 which is tetragonal. All the samples are superconducting. There is no significant change in Tc for the Zr-doped ( Y 1-x Zr x) Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ samples, while for the ( Y 0.85-y Zr 0.15 Ca y) Ba 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ compounds the Tc decrease with the dopant content and they show temperature dependent dc magnetic susceptibility, in the normal state.

The mineral having chemical compositional formula MgAl2O4 is called “spinel”. The ferrites crystallize in spinel structure are known as spinel-ferrites or ferro-spinels. The spinel structure has an fcc cage of oxygen ions and the metallic cations are distributed among tetrahedral (A) and octahedral (B) interstitial voids (sites). A compound of Co0.85Ca0.15-yMgyFe2O4 (y=0.05, 0.10, 0.15) is synthesized in polycrystalline form, using the stoichiometric mixture of oxides with conventional standard ceramic technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD).The XRD analysis confirmed the presence of cubic structure. The intensity of each Bragg plane is sensitive to the distribution of cations in the interstitial voids of the spinel lattice. The computer program Powder X software for XRD analysis has been utilized for this purpose. The compositions of Co0.85Ca0.15-yMgyFe2O4 (y=0.05, 0.10, 0.15) ferrites have been prepared by standard ceramic method with double sintering at 950°C, 1100°C. In present study, we report the structural, electrical and magnetic properties of above said compound.

Nanocrystalline CoFeHfO thin films have been fabricated by RF sputtering method. Co52Fe23Hf10O15 thin film is observed, exhibit good magnetic properties with magnetic coercivity (Hc) of 0.18 Oe; anisotropy fild (Hk) of 49 Oe; saturation magnetization (4лMs) of 21 kG, and electrical resistivity (ρ) of 300 01cm. The frequency response of permeability of the film is excellent. The effect of microstructure on the electrical and magnetic properties of thin film was studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that excellent soft magnetic properties were associated with granular nannoscale grains of α-CoFe and α-Co(Fe) phases.

In this research, we report a detailed study of the structural, electrial and magnetic properties of the ruthenium pyrochlore with the composition (Er_2-x Sr_x) Ru_2O_7 0<=x<=0.10 prepared by solid-state reaction in air at ambient pressure.  The synthesized products were characterized using powder X-ray diffraction. The structure of the samples was refined with the Rietveld method, showing that the lattice parameters are more sensitive to the Strontium and Erbium sites. Scanning electron microscopy shows that the crystal size varies between 0.27 and 0.62 mu m. In all polycrystalline samples, the electrical resistance decreases with increasing temperature, indicating that the samples are nonmetallic. The slope of the temperature-dependent resistance profiles systematically decreases with increasing x, proving that the carrier concentration increases with increasing the Sr content. Zero-field-cooled and field cooled magnetization measurements show an irreversible behavior where the split is systematically enhanced by increasing x.

The new filled skutterudite TbFe4P12 has been prepared at around 4 GPa and 1050 °C. Powder X-ray diffraction of TbT4P12 (T = Fe and Ru) has been studied with synchrotron radiation at ambient pressure. The crystal structures of both compounds were refined by Rietveld methods at ambient pressure. The positional parameters, bond lengths and bond angles have been obtained for TbT4P12 (T = Fe and Ru). The electrical and magnetic properties of TbFe4P12 have been investigated at low temperatures. The susceptibility of this phosphide follows a Curie-Weiss behavior at higher temperatures. The linear slope of the χ−1 vs. T curve from 15 to 300 K yields an effective magnetic moment of 9.48 μB. This value is close to the magnetic moment of the Tb3+ ion calculated from Hund’s rule, 9.72 μB. The ferromagnetic transition of TbFe4P12 was observed at around 10 K, and an electrical anomaly based on the magnetic ordering was detected. The relationship between the crystal structure and the physical properties of TbT4P12 (T = Fe and Ru) is discussed.

Cr doping in charge-ordered Pr0.75Na0.25Mn1-xCrxO3 and Nd0.75Na0.25Mn1-yCryO3 have been synthesized using conventional solid-state method to investigate its effect on structural, electrical transport and magnetic properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis for both compounds showed that the samples were crystallized in an orthorhombic structure with Pnma group. The unit cell volume value      decrease as the Cr-doped increased indicating the possibility of Mn3+ ion was replaced by Cr3+ due to the different of ionic radius. The temperature dependence of electrical resistivity showed an insulating behavior down to the lower temperature the both parent compound (x = 0 and y = 0). Successive substitution of Cr at Mn-site in Pr0.75Na0.25Mn1-xCrxO3 manganites induced the metal-insulator (MI) transition temperature around TMI~120 K and TMI~122 K for x = 0.02 and x = 0.04 samples respectively suggestively due to the enhancement of double-exchange (DE) mechanism as a result of suppress the CO state. Analysis of resistivity data of dlnρ/dT-1 vs. T in Nd0.75Na0.25Mn1-yCryO3 manganite, showed a peak around 210 K and 160 K for y = 0 and 0.02 samples respectively while no peak was observed for y = 0.05 sample indicate the charge-ordered (CO) weakened. AC susceptibility, χ’ measurements in Pr0.75Na0.25Mn1-xCrxO3 exhibits paramagnetic to ferromagnetic-like with curie temperature, TC increases from 132 K for x = 0.02 to 141 K for x = 0.04 with Cr content indicate the suppression of CO state meanwhile in Nd0.75Na0.25Mn1-yCryO3 showed paramagnetic to anti-ferromagnetic transition as Neel temperature TN increases from 115 K for y = 0.02 to 125 K for y = 0.05.

In this research, influence of adding Li2CO3 (at 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%) on electrical and magnetic properties of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Fe2O4 (with 60% Ni and 40% Mg) ferrite has been studied. The samples are prepared by solid state reaction method and sintered at 1300∘C for 6[Formula: see text]h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show the samples belong to single-phase cubic structure without any impurity phase. The magnetic properties (saturation magnetization and coercivity) of the samples have been investigated by VSM and found that the higher concentration of Li2CO3 reduces the hysteresis loss. DC resistivity increases with Li2CO3 contents whereas it decreases initially and then becomes constant at lower value with temperature which indicates that the studied samples are semiconductor. The dielectric dispersion occurs at a low-frequency regime and the loss peaks are formed in a higher frequency regime, which are due to the presence of resonance between applied frequency and hopping frequency of charge carriers. Notably, the loss peaks are shifted to the lower frequency with Li2CO3 additions.
