Fe/Cr(001)超晶格层间耦合和自旋极化的第一性原理计算

采用基于密度泛函理论的平面波赝势法对Fe／Cr（001）起晶格的层间耦合和自旋极化进行了系统地研究．结果表明：理想Fe／Cr超晶格的层间耦合随反铁磁Cr层层数的增加呈短周期性振荡；在较稳定的结构中，整个Cr层都以较大的磁矩被极化，且极化程度受铁磁层原子数的影响较大．     

A carbon- and oxygen-isotope record of recent environ- mental change from Qinghai Lake, NE Tibetan Plateau

An understanding of natural climatic variability is essential for evaluating anthropogenic impacts on recent and future climate[1—3]. Due to the lack of lengthy instrumental records, such an understanding must be gained from natural archives of climate change. Palaeolimnological indicators of past lake levels may provide a sensitive record of changes in effective precipitation in closed basins. This approach is particularly relevant on the Tibetan Plateau, where instrumental records are very…     

Nanoengineering of Flux Pinning Sites in High－Tc Superconductors

Volume pinning forces were determined for a variety of bulk high-Tc superconductors of the 123-type from magnetization measurements. By means of scaling of the pinning forces, the acting pinning mechanisms in various temperature ranges were identified. The Nd-based superconductors and some YBCO crystals exhibited a dominating pinning of the δTc-type (i.e., small, superconducting pinning sites). In contrast to this, the addition of insulating 211 particles provided pinning of the δl-type; providing effective pinning in the entire temperature range acting as a “background” pinning mechanism for the peak effect. Due to the small coherence lengths of the high-Tc compounds, effective pinning sites are defects or particles of nanometer size relative to ε^3. Integral magnetic measurements of the magnetization as a function of temperature in large applied magnetic fields (up to 7 T) revealed that practically all high-Tccompounds were spatially inhomogeneous, which could becaused by oxygen deficiency (YBCO), solid solutions of Nd/Ba (NdBCO and other light rare earth compounds), intergrowths (Bi-based superconductors), and doping by pair-breaking dopants like Zn, Pr. This implies that the superconducting sample consists of stronger and weaker superconducting areas, coupled together. In large applied fields, this coupling gets broken and the magnetization versus temperature curves revealed more than one superconducting transition. In contrast, irradiation experiments by neutrons, protons,and heavy-ions enabled the artificial introduction of very effective pinning sites into the high-Tc superconductors, thus creating a large variety of different observations using magnetic data. From all these observations, we construct a pinning diagram for bulk high-Tc superconductors explaining many featuresobserved in high-Tc samples.

Ni2MnGa铁磁形状记忆材料

铁磁形状记忆合金 (FSMA)是在一定温度范围马氏体相稳定同时又具铁磁性的一类特殊的形状记忆合金。Ni2MnGa铁磁形状记忆合金近年来成为呈现磁场驱动大应变的新型驱动材料 ,这些应变来自磁场诱发马氏体孪晶的重排 ,而不是磁场对奥氏体至马氏体相变的作用。孪晶变体的重排在宏观上呈现为正或切应变 ,一非化学计量比Ni2 MnGa单晶于室温加 0 .4T磁场能产生6 %的应变 ,Ni Mn Ga单晶在高至 15 0Hz的交变磁场仍可得到 2 .5 %的应变。本文阐述了与这种磁控形状记忆效应相关的孪晶界迁动的磁学和晶体学理论。马氏体相的大磁晶各向异性能使磁化沿c轴方向有利 ,穿过孪晶界c轴刚好转动 90度 ,同时 ,这个孪晶界也构成了约 90度的畴界。在各向异性的情况下 ,孪晶界的迁动仅有相邻孪晶变体的Zeeman能差驱动 ,μ0 ΔMis·Hi。磁场和外应力对应变的影响通过对一简单的自由能表达式取极小值来表示 ,自由能表达式包括Zeeman能、磁晶各向异性能和外应力以及在某些情况下需考虑的内部弹性能 ,模型的所有参数可通过应力 应变曲线和磁化曲线测量得到。铁磁形状记忆合金的磁场诱发应变可类比传统热弹性形状记忆效应 ,与更为人们所熟知的磁致伸缩现象不同。     

Fe对NiAl合金中缺陷电子密度的影响

NiAl合金具有许多优异的物理性能:它的密度低,仅为5.86g/cm~3;它的熔点高达1640℃;它有高的热传导性,是Ni基高温合金的4～8倍;它还具有良好的抗氧化性能.由于NiAl合金具有这些优点,使得它可望成为新一代高温结构材料但单晶和多晶NiAl合金在室温下很脆,这阻碍了它的现时应用Geoyge等人研究了微量B,C,Be对NiAl合金的断裂和晶界化学的影响,结果表明,用B,C,Be对NiAl合金微合金化,没有达到提高合金塑性的目的.而Rachinger等人的实验结果表明,用Cr,Co,Fe,Mn等元素对NiAl合金化能使NiAl有序能减小.Fe含量较高的Ni-20AI-30Fe经挤压后,其室温塑性延伸率达8%目前还没弄清这些合金元素影响NiAl合金力学性能的微观机制.本文通过测量NiAl,Ni_(48)Al_(45)Fe_7和Ni_(50)A1_(20)Fe_(30)的正电子寿命谱,揭示NiAl合金室温脆性的本质.研究Fe对NiAl合金缺陷电子密度的影响.
