Ferromagnetic shape memory flapper

A new method for propulsion using a Ni₂MnGa ferromagnetic shape memory flapper is introduced. We optically examine the magnetic field induced strain of pure shear by means of a state of the art generator that provides alternating magnetic fields of 7000 Oe at frequencies of up to 100 Hz. Preliminary measurements show local shear deformation of about 5%, which open new frontiers in propulsion mechanisms.     

Secondary ion emission of Fe-Ni alloys in the temperature range including the Curie point

The temperature dependence of secondary ion emission was investigated for Fe-Ni ferromagnetic alloys with different Curie points T_c and elemental composition: 35% Ni 65% Fe (T_c=240°C), 40% Ni 60% Fe (T_c=360°C), and 50% Ni 50% Fe (T_c=530°C). The alloy 79% Ni 16% Fe 5% Mo (T_c=345°C) was also studied. The spatial distribution of Ni⁺ and Fe⁺ secondary ions emitted from the (1 1 1) face of invar and permalloy single crystals was shown to be anisotropic with pronounced ion-yield maximum for both components in the 〈1 1 0〉 directions. The shape of the energy distribution of Ni⁺ and Fe⁺ ions was found to be virtually identical for all the alloys under investigation with a most probable energy at 7 eV and a width at half-maximum of 12 eV. The temperature dependence of the Ni⁺ and Fe⁺ emission has a maximum near the Curie point of the investigated alloys and another maximum at the Curie point of nickel which may indicate the precipitation of nickel into microscopic islands on the surface as a result of heating and sputtering. Auger analysis of the surface composition in the surface layers showed a variation in concentration of oxygen and carbon atoms when Fe-Ni alloys pass from the ferromagnetic to the paramagnetic state and this must affect also the secondary ion emission of alloy components.     

Channel Thickness Dependence of the Magnetic Properties in (Ga,Mn)As FET Structures

We have fabricated a series of field-effect transistor structures with a thin (Ga,Mn)As channel with thickness t of 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, and 5.0 nm, and investigated the effect of electric-field E on their magnetic properties. The Curie temperature T _C showed a clear dependence on the magnitude of E, and its controllable range became larger with decreasing t and reached 15 K for the device with t=3.5 nm, which corresponded to 32% of T _C of the layer.     

Concentric Sub‐micrometer‐Sized Cables Composed of Ni Nanowires and Sub‐micrometer‐Sized Fullerene Tubes

Highly ordered arrays of submicrometer‐sized coaxial cables composed of submicrometer‐sized C₆₀ and C₇₀ tubes filled with Ni nanowires are successfully prepared by combining a sol–gel method with an electrodeposition process. The wall thickness of the submicrometer‐sized tubes can be adjusted by the concentration of fullerenes and the immersion time. The thermal stability of the submicrometer‐sized C₆₀ tubes is studied by Raman spectroscopy and it is found that these structures can be easily decomposed to form carbon nanotubes at relatively low temperatures (above 573 K) in an alumina template. These novel coaxial cable structures have been characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high‐resolution TEM (HRTEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field‐emission SEM (FESEM), Raman spectroscopy, elemental mapping, energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX) spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction (XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) experiments, and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) measurements. Magnetic measurements show that these submicrometer‐sized cables exhibit enhanced ferromagnetic behavior as compared to bulk nickel. Moreover, submicrometer‐sized C₇₀/Ni cables show uniaxial magnetic anisotropy with the easy magnetic axis being parallel to the long axis of the Ni nanowires. C₇₀/Ni cables also exhibit a new magnetic transition at ca. 10 K in the magnetization–temperature (M–T) curve, which is not observed for the analogous C₆₀/Ni structures. The origin of this transition is not yet clear, but might be related to interactions between the Ni nanowires and C₇₀ molecules. There is no preferred magnetization axis in submicrometer‐sized C₆₀/Ni cables, which implies that the Ni nanocrystals have different packing modes in the two composites. These different crystalline packing modes lead to different magnetic anisotropy in the two composites, although the Ni nanocrystals have the same face‐centered cubic (fcc) structure in both cases.

Impact of rare earth europium (RE-Eu3+) ions substitution on microstructural,optical and magnetic properties of CoFe2−xEuxO4 nanosystems

In this study, pure cobalt ferrite (CoFe₂O₄) nanoparticles and europium doped CoFe₂O₄ (CoFe_2−xEu_xO₄; x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) nanoparticles were synthesized by the precipitation and hydrothermal approach. The impact of replacing trivalent iron (Fe³⁺) ions by trivalent rare earth europium (RE-Eu³⁺) ions on the microstructure, optical and magnetic properties of the produced CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles was studied. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra exposed the consistency of a single cubic phase with the evidence of Eu₂O₃ phases for x ≥ 0.2. FTIR transmittance spectra showed that, the all investigated samples have three characteristic metal-oxygen bond vibrations corresponding to octahedral B-site (υ₁ and υ₂) and tetrahedral A-site (υ₃) around 415 cm⁻¹, 470 cm⁻¹ and 600 cm⁻¹ respectively. XRD and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy studies affirmed the integration of RE-Eu³⁺ ions within CoFe₂O₄ host lattice and decrease of average crystals size from 13.7 nm to 4.7 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed the crucial role played by RE-Eu³⁺ added to CoFe₂O₄ in reducing the particle size below 5 nm in agreement with XRD analysis. High resolution-TEM (HR-TEM) analysis showed that the as-synthesized spinel ferrite, i.e., CoFe_2−xEu_xO₄, nanoparticles are single-crystalline with no visible defects. In addition, the HR-TEM results showed that pure and doped CoFe₂O₄ have well-resolved lattice fringes and their interplanar spacings matches that obtained by XRD analysis. Magnetic properties investigated by the vibrating sample magnetometer technique illustrated transformation of magnetic state from ferromagnetic to superparamagnetic at 300 K resulting in introducing RE-Eu³⁺ in CoFe₂O₄ lattice. At low temperature (~5 K) the magnetic order was ferromagnetic for both pure and doped CoFe₂O₄ samples. Substitution of Fe³⁺ ions in CoFe₂O₄ nanoparticles with RE-Eu³⁺ ions optimizes the sample nanocrystals size, cation distribution and magnetic properties for many applications.
