We use a dual channel digital lock-in to perform electrical measurement of AC losses at power frequencies. A DC magnetic field between 2 and 400 mT is applied with a varying angle from parallel to perpendicular to the tape surface, thus having a complete v ...
We present an efficient exptl. method to evaluate whether the effective cross-relaxation rate between a pair of spins vanishes when applying an off-resonance spin-lock field. It is shown that the cross-relaxation rate can be made to vanish even when the tw ...
The magnetic field in a coil results in a transverse force on the strands pushing the cable towards one side of the jacket. A special cryogenic press has been built to study in a unique way the mechanical and electrical properties of full-size ITER Cable-i ...
A special sensor is proposed for magnetization measurement of superconductors with round cross section under pulsed transversal field. The sensor consists of a saddle shaped pick-up coil attached to the cylindrical superconducting sample, with a controlled ...
We develop a plane-wave pseudopotential scheme for noncollinear magnetic structures, based on a generalized local spin-density theory in which the direction of the magnetization is a continuous variable of position. We allow the atomic and magnetic structu ...
An entire microsystem for high accuracy magnetic field measurement based on vertical Hall devices has been simulated. In accordance with existing knowledge about semiconductor physics and experimental results, a functional SPICE- model for a vertical Hall ...
New piezoresistive silicon cantilevers designed specifically for torque magnetometry on microscopic samples have been microfabricated and tested. These levers have been optimized to detect the torque in two directions corresponding to flexion and torsion. ...
A silicon-based temperature stabilized axial Hall probe with an absolute accuracy of +/-40 ppm in the full range between 0 and 6 T is presented. The absolute calibration of the probe is performed against a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) probe. The applic ...
A new compact 2D planar fluxgate sensor using a ferromagnetic amorphous metal core is described. The fluxgate sensor consists of two orthogonal planar coils and an amorphous magnetic ring core mounted on a PCB substrate. Each planar coil is used alternativ ...
Retention of cesium in yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) was studied experimentally and discussed on the basis of its solubility estimated on a thermodynamic basis. The retention was investigated experimentally by determination of the temperature dependence ...
