Magnetic and structural properties of Ni-substituted magnetoelectric Co4Nb2O9

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Virgile Yves Favre, Hadi Papi, Hossein Ahmadvand

The magnetic and structural properties of polycrystalline Co4-xNixNb2O9 (x = 1, 2) have been investigated by neutron powder diffraction, magnetization and heat capacity measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. For x = 1, the compound ...

Field-induced anisotropy in the quasi-two-dimensional weakly anisotropic antiferromagnet [CuCl(pyz)(2)]BF4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow

We measured NMR and magnetic susceptibility for the quasi-two-dimensional, weakly XY-like, spin-1/2 square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet [CuCl(pyz)(2)]BF4 (pyz = pyrazine = N2C4H4) near the critical temperature. The Neel temperature T-N and the order- ...

Structural disorder and magnetic correlations driven by oxygen doping in Nd2NiO4+delta (delta similar to 0.11)

We investigated the influence of oxygen overstoichiometry on apical oxygen disorder and magnetic correlations in Nd2NiO4+delta (delta similar to 0.11) in the temperature range of 2-300 K by means of synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction, neutron single-crys ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Amphiphilic Gold Nanoparticles

Francesco Stellacci, Paulo Henrique Jacob Silva, Zekiye Pelin Güven, Zhi Luo, Samuel Thomas Jones, Urszula Beata Cendrowska, Matteo Gasbarri

Gold nanoparticles covered with a mixture of 1-octanethiol (OT) and 11-mercapto-1-undecane sulfonic acid (MUS) have been extensively studied because of their interactions with cell membranes, lipid bilayers, and viruses. The hydrophilic ligands make these ...

Magnetic exchange parameters and anisotropy of the quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnet NiPS3

Diane Virginie Marie Lançon

Neutron inelastic scattering has been used to measure the magnetic excitations in powdered NiPS3, a quasitwo-dimensional antiferromagnet with spin S = 1 on a honeycomb lattice. The spectra show clear, dispersive magnons with a similar to 7 meV gap at the B ...

Spin Diffusion in Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Nuclear Magnetic Resonance

Arthur César Pinon

Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) is currently one of the most efficient ways of enhancing sensitivity in solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experiments. The DNP protocol consists in doping a sample with a small amount of paramagnetic species, t ...

Magnetic phase diagram of Ca-substituted EuFe2As2

The simultaneous presence of an Fe-related spin-density wave and the antiferromagnetic order of Eu-2(+) moments ranks EuFe2As2 among the most interesting parent compounds of iron-based pnictide superconductors. Here we explore the consequences of the dilut ...

Self-Similar Multiresonant Nanoantenna Arrays for Sensing from Near- to Mid-Infrared

Hatice Altug, Odeta Limaj, Daniel Rodrigo Lopez, Andreas Tittl, Aurélian Michel John-Herpin

Tailoring nanoscale light concentration and electromagnetic near-field enhancement over a broad spectral range is crucial for many photonics applications such as infrared spectroscopy, photodetection, and light harvesting. So far, broadband light enhanceme ...

Building Composite Iron-Manganese Oxide Flowerlike Nanostructures: A Detailed Magnetic Study

Davide Deiana

Here we show that it is possible to produce different magnetic core multiple shell heterostructures from monodisperse Fe3O4 spherical magnetic seeds by finely controlling the amount of a manganese precursor and using, in a smart and simple way, a cation-ex ...
