Magnetism of hexagonal Mn{sub 1.5}X{sub 0.5}Sn (X = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co) nanomaterials
Abstract
Mn{sub 1.5}X{sub 0.5}Sn (X = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co) nanomaterials in the hexagonal Ni{sub 2}In-type crystal structure have been prepared using arc-melting and melt spinning. All the rapidly quenched Mn{sub 1.5}X{sub 0.5}Sn alloys show moderate saturation magnetizations with the highest value of 458 emu/cm{sup 3} for Mn{sub 1.5}Fe{sub 0.5}Sn, but their Curie temperatures are less than 300 K. All samples except the Cr containing one show spin-glass-like behavior at low temperature. The magnetic anisotropy constants calculated from the high-field magnetization curves at 100 K are on the order of 1 Merg/cm{sup 3}. The vacuum annealing of the ribbons at 550 °C significantly improved their magnetic properties with the Curie temperature increasing from 206 K to 273 K for Mn{sub 1.5}Fe{sub 0.5}Sn.

The spinel oxides Zn{sub x}Mg{sub 1.5-x}Mn{sub 0.5}FeO{sub 4} (x = 0.0 to 0.6) and MgAl{sub x}Cr{sub x}Fe{sub 2-2x}O{sub 4} (x = 0.0 to 0.6) abbreviated as ZMMFO and MACFO respectively, were synthesized by standard ceramic processing. The compositional purity of all the specimens was checked by EDAX technique. The X-ray diffractometry was employed to determine the lattice constants and distribution of cations in the interstitial voids. The initial decrease of cell edge parameter (a) for ZMMFO up to x = 0.2 and thereafter expected rise in the ‘a’ and the initial slower rate of reduction in the lattice constant formore »

Synthesis, magnetic and electric transport properties of mixed-valence manganites La{sub 0.5+x}Sr{sub 1.5−x}Mn{sub 0.5}Cr{sub 0.5}O{sub 4} (x=0.1, 0.2 and 0.3)
A series of mixed-valence manganites La{sub 0.5+x}Sr{sub 1.5−x}Mn{sub 0.5}Cr{sub 0.5}O{sub 4} were synthesized by sol–gel method. Rietveld profile analysis shows that the phases crystallize with tetragonal unit cell in the space group I4/mmm. The lattice parameter c increases with increase in x while a parameter almost remains constant. The Weiss constant (θ) is positive for all the phases and found to increase with increase in x. The ferromagnetic interactions becomes more dominant with increase in x due to increase in Mn{sup 3+}–O–Mn{sup 4+} and Mn{sup 3+}–O–Cr{sup 3+} double exchange interactions. Resistivity can be described by the polaron hopping and themore » -
Permeability and giant magnetoimpedance in Co{sub 69}Fe{sub 4.5}X{sub 1.5}Si{sub 10}B{sub 15} (X=Cr, Mn, Ni) amorphous ribbons
The magnetoimpedance (MI) has been measured in the amorphous ribbons of the soft ferromagnetic alloy Co{sub 69}Fe{sub 4.5}X{sub 1.5}Si{sub 10}B{sub 15} (X=Cr, Mn, Ni) as functions of frequency (f). For all of the three samples, at low frequency, f{le}5MHz, the MI ratio increases with increasing frequency, but the MI ratio decreases at high frequency, f{ge}5MHz. The MI profiles are not changed at low frequency regions of f{le}1MHz in the amorphous ribbons. The MI ratio at high frequency of f=5MHz becomes 57% in Co{sub 69}Fe{sub 4.5}Cr{sub 1.5}Si{sub 10}B{sub 15}, but the MI ratio becomes 30% in Co{sub 69}Fe{sub 4.5}Mn{sub 1.5}Si{sub 10}B{submore » -
Local electronic structure and magnetism of 3 d transition-metal impurities (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) in La sub 2 minus x Sr sub x CuO sub 4 (US)
Local-density-functional calculations have been performed to study the electronic structure and magnetism of 3d transition-metal ions (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) substituting for the Cu ion in La{sub 2{minus}{ital x}}Sr{sub {ital x}}CuO{sub 4}. These systems are simulated by small clusters which are surrounded by over 5000 point charges. It is found that all the substituting ions possess local magnetic moments. Through a systematic comparison we find that the Cu-O system has the smallest {ital p}-{ital d} separation and the largest {ital p}-{ital d} hybridization. The Cu-O system has the smallest local magnetic moment, which can be reduced to zeromore » -
Structural, magnetic, and electron transport properties of Mn{sub 3−x}Pt{sub x}Sn (x = 0, 0.5, 1) nanomaterials
The structural, magnetic, and electron-transport properties of Mn{sub 3−x}Pt{sub x}Sn (x = 0, 0.5, 1) nanomaterials prepared by arc-melting, melt-spinning, and annealing were investigated. It was found that the hexagonal structure is the most stable structure for Mn{sub 3}Sn and the samples show an antiferromagnetic spin order at room temperature. The Pt-containing samples are mainly tetragonal but contain a small amount of other impurity phases, including hexagonal Mn{sub 3}Sn and Mn{sub 2}Sn. At room temperature, the Pt-containing samples show ferri- or ferromagnetic spin order with a Curie temperature of about 370 K. The measured high-field magnetization and anisotropy constant for Mn{sub 2}PtSn are 405 emu/cm{supmore »
