This thesis presents our studies on nanostructures growth and magnetism, mainly based on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE), and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements. In most of these experiments, nanos ...
Ferroelectric perovskites exhibit superior dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Architecting ferroelectrics in the small scale holds interest in both application and fundamental research. Compared to their 2D counterparts – thin films, f ...
We present a multifrequency electron spin resonance study in the range of 4-420 GHz of the quasi-one-dimensional, nondimerized, quarter-filled Mott insulators, delta-(EDT-TTF-CONMe2)(2)X (X=AsF6, Br). In the high-temperature orthorhombic phase above T simi ...
A detailed description of a merged beam apparatus for the study of low energy molecular scattering is given. This review is intended to guide any scientist who plans to construct a similar experiment, and to provide some inspiration in describing the appro ...
The manner in which 90. ferroelectric-ferroelastic domains respond to changes in temperature has been mapped in BaTiO3 single crystals using atomic force microscopy. Domain periodicity remains unaltered until approximately 2 degrees C below the Curie tempe ...
Ferroelectrics are widespread in technology(1), being used in electronics and communications(2), medical diagnostics and industrial automation. However, extension of their operational temperature range and useful properties is desired(3-5). Recent developm ...
Orthorhombic Lead metaniobate (PbNb2O6) exhibits ferroelectric properties and has a Curie temperature, TC of 570 degrees C. This work reports on investigations made on ferroelectric Lead metaniobate, (PN) and its solid solutions with bismuth and titanium P ...
The main objective of this theoretical study was to investigate under which conditions a magnetic energy conversion device (MECD) - utilizing industrial waste heat - is economically feasible. Furthermore, it was evaluated if magnetic energy conversion (MCE ...
We report the observation of weak magnetism in superlattices of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 using beta-detected nuclear magnetic resonance. The spin lattice relaxation rate of Li-8 in superlattices with a spacer layers of 8 and 6 unit cells of LaAlO3 exhibits a strong p ...
A point defect relaxation peak has been observed in a ternary 18-carat gold alloy with the composition Au62.5Pd32.5In5. It shows a Curie Weiss dependence on the temperature, as is commonly observed for a Zener peak. However, the peak is absent in the binar ...
