    Notes: A Sm-poor mixture of Fe-substituted Sm2Co17, having the nominal stoichiometry of Sm0.080Co0.645Fe0.276, was ball-milled to explore the possibility of enhancing its remanence through direct microstructural refinement. With milling, the Sm2(Co0.7Fe0.3)17 compound disassociates to a body-centered-cubic supersaturated SmCoFe solid solution and a residual SmCoFe amorphous phase. Correspondingly, the coercive field values first increase, peaking at 0.83 kOe after 180 min of milling, then decrease with continued milling to 〈0.1 kOe after 1200 min. The remanence, as Mr/Ms, is measured to track closely the coercive field behavior, experiencing modest increases to 0.26 after just 120 min of milling. Magnetization values are found to increase first with the dissociation of the 2:17 phase, and again with the ejection of Sm from the bcc component. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Ba-hexaferrite thin films for recording media applications are often fabricated by a two-step process: sputter deposition of an amorphous precursor, followed by annealing to crystallize the BaFe12O19 phase. The magnetic anisotropy of the crystalline films can be either in-plane or perpendicular, depending on the sputtering process used in the first step. However, conventional structural characterization techniques have not been able to distinguish between different as-sputtered films. Using polarization-dependent extended x-ray absorption fine structure (PD-EXAFS), we have observed anisotropic local structure around both Ba and Fe atoms in the amorphous precursor films. Comparison of the results suggests that the amorphous films consist of networks of Fe atoms surrounded by their O nearest neighbors, with Ba atoms fitting into in-between spaces as network modifiers (there might also be some minor Fe network modifying contribution). The local structural anisotropy of the amorphous films appears to determine the orientation of the fast-growing basal plane directions during annealing, and thus the directions of the c axes and the magnetic anisotropy. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A low pressure metalo-organic chemical vapor deposition (LPMOCVD) technique to form Co2+ and Ce4+ doped yttrium iron garnet (Y3−xCexFe5−xCoxO12: Co,Ce:YIG) films is described. A large concentration of Co2+ doping with x=0.3–0.7 results in uniaxial anisotropy perpendicular to the plane of the film with high coercivity values and sufficiently high saturation magnetization values. This has been possible by an alternate doping scheme where commonly used compensator, Ge4+ at Fe3+ sites has been replaced by a new compensator Ce4+ at Y3+ sites in the Co-doped YIG films. The structural and compositional aspect of stabilized garnet phase in Co2+,Ce4+:YIG thin films and optical, thermomagnetic and magnetic hysteresis properties are presented. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The evolution of the local atomic environment around Fe atoms in very thin (15 nm), amorphous, partially crystallized and fully crystallized films of Fe80B20 was studied using extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements. The relative atomic fraction of each crystalline phase present in the annealed samples was extracted from the Fe EXAFS data by a least-squares fitting procedure, using data collected from t-Fe3B, t-Fe2B, and α-Fe standards. The type and relative fraction of the crystallization products follows the trends previously measured in Fe80B20 melt-spun ribbons, except for the fact that crystallization temperatures are ≈200 K lower than those measured in bulk equivalents. This greatly reduced crystallization temperature may arise from the dominant role of surface nucleation sites in the crystallization of very thin amorphous films. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: This note describes an improved anodization apparatus that provides enhanced safety and efficiency, and is suitable for large-scale volume production. The improved anodization apparatus also provides increased electrolyte temperature control, and allows flexibility in the size and shape of the substrate. Overall, this equipment will find wide applications in the fabrication of template-based semiconductor nanostructures, porous silicon, and other devices that require electrochemical processing. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The magnetic, structural, and transport properties of the Heusler alloy Co2MnSi are reported for sputtered thin films and a single crystal. X-ray diffraction reveals a phase pure L21 structure for all films grown between 573 and 773 K. Films grown at 773 K display a four-fold decrease in the resistivity relative to those grown at lower temperatures and a corresponding 30% increase in the residual resistivity ratio (ρ300 K/ρ5 K). We show that the higher growth temperature results in lattice constants, room temperature resistivities, and magnetic properties that are comparable to that of the bulk single crystal. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: An analysis of structure and discrimination in simple chiral fluids is presented. The chiral molecules consist of a central carbon bonded to four distinct groups. Molecular-dynamics simulations have been performed on a one-component chiral fluid and on two racemic mixtures. For the racemates, discrimination, as measured by differences in pair distribution functions, is present but found to be small. Intermolecular pair interaction energies are found to be good predictors of the magnitude and the sign (mirror-image pairs favored) of the differences observed in site–site distribution functions. For the one-component fluid, the quality of structural predictions from the reference-interaction-site method and Chandler–Silbey–Ladanyi (CSL) integral equation theories, with the hypernetted chain (HNC) and Percus–Yevick closures, has been examined. These theories generally provide a qualitatively correct description of the site–site distributions. Extensions beyond the HNC level have been explored: Two-field-point bridge diagrams have been explicitly evaluated and included in the CSL theory. The inclusion of these diagrams significantly improves the quality of the integral equation theories. Since the CSL theory has not been used extensively, and bridge diagrams have been evaluated in only a few instances, a detailed analysis of their impact is presented. For racemic mixtures, diagram evaluation is shown to be crucial. Specifically, the differences in site–site distributions for sites on identical and mirror-image molecules are found to originate from bridge diagrams which involve interactions between four-site, or larger, clusters. Discrimination cannot be predicted from an integral equation theory which neglects these diagrams. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The ab initio effective valence shell Hamiltonian (Hυ) method is used to compute the excitation energies and oscillator strengths for resonance transitions in Mg-like ions, as well as their lowest ionization potentials. The computed excitation energies and oscillator strengths from the Hυ method are in excellent agreement with experiment and with the best values from other high level correlated computations, where available. Several previous discrepancies between theory and experiment are now removed. The present work also investigates the dependence of the calculated Hυ oscillator strengths on the nature and choice of the valence orbitals and provides a comprehensive study of the convergence of Hυ calculations with respect to the enlargement of the valence space. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A comprehensive acute toxicity trial was conducted using a static water system to study the toxic effect of ammonia on haematology and enzyme profiles of Cirrhinus mrigala H. The LC50 of total ammonia-nitrogen (TAN) was 11.8 mg L−1 TAN (1.029 mg L−1 NH3-N). The sub-lethal test revealed that with increasing concentration of TAN, the total erythrocyte counts were reduced in lower concentrations (1–4 mg L−1 TAN) followed by higher levels in fish exposed to higher concentrations (8–16 mg L−1 TAN). In contrast, the total leucocyte counts were opposite. With increasing concentration of TAN, haemoglobin and serum protein content were reduced, whereas the blood glucose level increased. As the concentration of ammonia increased, there was a reduction in acetylecholinesterase activity in the brain and liver; alkaline phosphatase activity in the serum, brain and gill; and acid phosphatase (ACP) activity in the gill. The activity of lactate dehydrogenase in the gill, liver, kidney and brain increased with increased concentration of ammonia. In addition, activities of ACP in the serum and brain, alanine aminotransferase in the serum, brain and gill, and aspartate aminotransferase in the serum, brain and gill were increased.
