Sharma, Sudesh ; Chaudhary, Sujeet ; Kashyap, Subhash C. ; Malik, Vivek K.

In: Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2011, vol. 509, no. 27, p. 7434-7438

In the present paper, DC magnetization investigation on the insulating nanocrystalline powder samples of Ti1−xMnxO₂ (x = 0, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15) prepared by simple chemical route is reported. Structural measurements revealed phase pure anatase structure of TiO₂ when x ≤ 0.05 and a mixture of anatase and rutile TiO₂ along with the...

Magnetic induction in high-Tc superconductor/ferromagnet heterostructures

Hoppler, Justin ; Bernhard, Christian (Dir.)

Thèse de doctorat : Université de Fribourg, 2009 ; Nr. 1638.

The magnetic induction in superlattices comprising thin layers of the high-Tc superconductor YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO) and the ferromagnet La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 (LCMO) has been investigated by polarised neutron reflectometry measurements. The data provide evidence for a surprisingly strong mutual interaction of the superconducting and the ferromagnetic order parameters. In the region of the interfaces a...

Morphology and orientational behavior of silica-coated spindle-type hematite particles in a magnetic field probed by small-angle x-ray scattering

Reufer, Mathias ; Dietsch, Hervé ; Gasser, Urs ; Hirt, Ann ; Menzel, Andreas ; Schurtenberger, Peter

In: Journal of Physical Chemistry B, 2010, vol. 114, no. 14, p. 4763-4769

Form factor and magnetic properties of silica-coated spindle-type hematite nanoparticles are determined from SAXS measurements with applied magnetic field and magnetometry measurements. The particle size, polydispersity and porosity are determined using a core−shell model for the form factor. The particles are found to align with their long axis perpendicular to the applied field. The...

Cobalt substituted ZnO thin films: a potential candidate for spintronics

Bhatti, Kanwal Preet ; Malik, Vivek Kumar ; Chaudhary, Sujeet

In: Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics, 2008, vol. 19, no. 8-9, p. 849-854

Cobalt doped zinc oxide thin films have been deposited using spray pyrolysis method. These single phasic films exhibited [100] preferential texture and small decrease in the lattice parameter on cobalt substitution. The films having different Co concentration have almost similar surface morphology and microstructure. These Zn1−xCoxO (x ≤ 0.10) thin...
