Patterned magnetic thin films are of interest due to the potential for new technological applications and also because of their modified physical behaviour as the lateral dimensions are reduced. The functionality of patterned films can be intelligently des ...
Planar tetracoordinate carbons (ptC's) can be stabilized by four-membered ring perimeters composed of four bare transition metal atoms. DFT analyses of the MOs, electronic structures, energies, and magnetic properties of these CM4 species (where M represen ...
Heat and charge transport perpendicular to the plan in five Co/Cu stacks are studied using AC temperature gradients in the presence of a DC current. Large peaks in AC voltage response versus applied field are observed. This effect, measured only in reversi ...
Motivated by the ever-increasing experimental effort devoted to the properties of frustrated quantum magnets in a magnetic field, we present a careful and detailed theoretical analysis of a one-dimensional version of this problem, a frustrated ladder with ...
The thesis presents experimental results on the growth and magnetism of metallic nanostructures on the vicinal Pt surface. The aim of the research project consists of two parts: First, to find conditions for growing nanostructures of dimensionalities from ...
We discuss high-field magnetic properties of the quasi two dimensional frustrated dimer spin system SrCu2(BO3)2, which is a realization of the Shastry-Sutherland spin model and shows magnetization plateaus at 1/8, 1/4 and 1/3 of the saturated magnetization ...
Magnetic anomalies observed by the Mars Global Surveyor mission are attributed to crustal remanence. SNC (Shergotty-Nakhla-Chassigny) meteorites are likely samples of the Martian crust and are amenable to mineralogical and magnetic measurements essential t ...
Individual Mn impurities deposited on Ge(100), Ge(111), and GaAs(110) substrates present magnetic moments significantly larger compared to the average Mn magnetization in bulklike Ga1-xMnxAs and MnxGe1-x dilute magnetic semiconductors. The Mn magnetic mome ...
Due to their high and variable coordination numbers leading to poorly predictable threedimensional coordination spheres, the trivalent lanthanide metal ions are challenging molecular objects for introduction into thermotropic liquid crystals. Conversely, t ...
We have performed time-resolved pump–probe measurements on arrays of 1 μ m -wide Fe wires and on a 50 μ m -wide Fe stripe. A photoconductive switch was used as a source of fast-risetime magnetic field pulses. The magnetization dynamics were detected by the ...
