    Notes: Neutron inelastic scattering experiments have been performed on UF4 and NpF4. We had anticipated observing a number of sharp magnetic transitions in these experiments because the tetravalent metal ions are expected to have localized f states. However, very few transitions were observed, three and two in UF4 and NpF4, respectively. Except for the lowest-lying level (at 1.5 meV) in UF4 the transitions are wider than the instrumental resolution, suggesting a strong interaction between the electronic states and lattice vibrations. The levels observed do not correspond to those predicted by a crystal-field scheme recently proposed from optical spectroscopy. However, the paucity of observed levels in our experiments excludes us proposing an alternative scheme. The 1.5 meV energy level in UF4 is in good agreement with that deduced from specific heat and magnetic susceptibility data. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The spin-flop transition in the antiferromagnetic layered manganite La1.4Sr1.6Mn2O7 was studied using magnetization measurements and a high-resolution magneto-optical imaging technique. We report the direct observation of the formation of ferromagnetic domains appearing at the first order spin-flop transition. The magnetization process proceeds through nucleation of polarized domains at crystal defect sites and not through the expansion of polarized domains due to domain wall motion. A small magnetic hysteresis is caused by the difference between the mechanisms of nucleation and annihilation of domains in the mixed state. These results establish a direct link between the magnetic structure on the atomic scale as seen in neutron scattering and the macroscopic properties of the sample as seen in magnetization and conductivity measurements. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Magnetization experiments were performed on a series of single crystals of the bilayer manganites La2−2xSr1+2xMn2O7. The magnetic anisotropy constants were determined by fitting expressions based on the tetragonal anisotropy energy to the magnetization curves. It is shown that there is a significant dipolar contribution to the first order anisotropy constant arising from the layered crystal structure. This contribution determines the magnetization direction in the doping range x=0.32–0.33 where the anisotropy due to the electronic structure is small. With increasing doping the magnetic anisotropy changes from strong uniaxial anong the c axis (K(approximate)2.5×106 erg/cm3) at x=0.3 to strong easy plane (K(approximate)−3.7×106 erg/cm3) at x=0.4 in an almost linear fashion. This evolution is explained through the change of the orbital nature of the eg electrons from predominantly d3z2−r2 to predominantly dx2−y2. On the samples displaying easy-plane anisotropy a small anisotropy in the basal plane of about −7×104 erg/cm3 was determined with (110) being the easy axis. An estimate of the spin-wave gap based on these results is in reasonable agreement with experimental determinations. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: As with many other oxide-based compounds that exhibit electronic behavior, structural defects have a strong influence on the electronic properties of the CMR manganites. In this work, we have studied the effect of grain boundaries on the transport properties and on the local orientation of magnetization. Thin films of the perovskite-related La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 compound were deposited onto bicrystal substrates using pulsed laser deposition. Transport measurements showed an enhancement of magnetoresistance across the grain boundary. The structure of the boundary was evaluated by electron microscopy. In contrast with the highly meandering boundaries typically observed in bicrystals of high-temperature superconductors, the boundaries in these films are relatively straight and well defined. However, magneto-optical imaging showed that the local magnetization was oriented out of the plane at the grain boundary while it was oriented within the plane in the grains on either side. This coordinated reorientation of local magnetization near the grain boundary leads to enhanced magnetoresistance across the boundary in low fields. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A high-resolution magneto-optical imaging technique is used to reveal the formation of twins occurring during a martensitic phase transition at ∼105 K in La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 (LCMO) films grown on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates. The magnetic contrast arises due to the magneto-elastic tilts of the Mn- magnetic moments in the twins. Different magnetic structures are found in LCMO films grown on MgO, NGO, and LAO substrates showing the importance of the substrate material for the manganite film properties. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: YBa2Cu3O7−x compounds were extruded into long wires with the diameter of 1 mm after sintering. The sintered wires were subsequently zone melted to develop a highly textured microstructure. Magnetization experiments at 77 K indicated a Jc value of 1×105 A/cm2 at 1 T. Transport measurements at 77 K showed a greatly enhanced field dependence of the critical current density. Transmission electron microscopy revealed an important grain-boundary feature which eliminated the weak-link behavior. Large amounts of dislocations have also been found in the zone-melted sample which may contribute to flux pinning in the system.

    Notes: We have measured ac magnetoresistance in fields up to 8 T in a variety of YBa2Cu3O7−δ single crystals containing (a) twin boundaries only in one direction, (b) multi-twin domain structure, and (c) growth steps. We find two components of the resistance: an angular dependent Lorentz force induced "excess resistivity'' superimposed on an angular independent resistivity. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the angular-dependent resistivity exhibit a strong correlation with crystal defects, whereas the angular-independent resistivity remains virtually unchanged. In addition, we find crystals exhibiting both ohmic and non-ohmic behavior in their I-V characteristics depending on crystal imperfections.

    Notes: Measurements of the magnetization hysteresis of the same crystal in the twinned and untwinned state reveal that pinning due to twinning planes may contribute a substantial, anisotropic fraction of the observed critical currents. A linear scaling between magnetization hysteresis and sample dimension shows that the twinned and untwinned crystal does not exhibit any subgranular effects.

    Notes: The magnetization behavior of permalloy films containing a square array of holes has been studied using magnetometry, magneto-optical imaging, and magnetic force microscopy. Two types of domain boundaries are observed. The hole array induces a strongly pinned, complex domain structure on the microscopic level (i.e., within one unit cell of the hole array). We show that magnetization reversal occurs through the nucleation and motion of a domain wall that separates areas of oppositely polarized microscopic domain patterns. These walls display highly mobile kinks that induce the reversal of the microscopic patterns. The interplay between intrinsic anisotropy and pinning by the hole array induces a pronounced anisotropy in the domain patterns and switching mechanism. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Using magnetization hysteresis loops we have determined the irreversibility line of polycrystalline samples of HgBa2CuO4+δ and Hg0.8Pb0.2Ba2CuO4+δ. The irreversibility line is found at rather high temperatures. It does not show the drastic depression with increasing temperature as is observed in highly anisotropic Bi/Tl-based CuO superconductors. At 77 K the irreversibility field is around 0.3 T, which is substantially higher than in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10. The advantages of this material for large-scale applications are outlined.
