The synergistic character of the defect-induced magnetism in diluted magnetic semiconductors and related magnetic materials.

In this work, we introduce a new perspective in explaining the origin of magnetism in dilute magnetic semiconductors, carbon-based materials and other related materials. According to our proposal, the magnetism in these materials is the result of the synergistic action of defect-induced electronic processes mostly of local character which can provide magnetic moments and develop a ferromagnetic...

Nanostructure Materials Magnetic Nanofluids Properties and Some Applications

Magnetic nanofluids (known also as ferrofluids or magnetic fluids) are a special category of smart nanomaterials, in particular magnetically controllable nanofluids [1]. These types of nanofluids are colloids of magnetic nanoparticles, such as Fe3O4, γ-Fe2O3, CoFe2O4, Co, Fe or Fe-C, stably dispersed in a carrier liquid [2]. Consequently, these nanomaterials manifest simultaneously fluid and ma...

Magnetism in BEDT-TTF materials

Strong commensurate antiferromagnetism proximate to superconductivity is found in some members of the κ-(ET) family, while a spin gap (SG) is found in the θ-(ET). Both κand θ-(ET) materials have frustrated triangular lattice structures. We show from calculations of spin-spin correlations within the effective half-filled band triangular lattice proposed for the κ-ET, as well as for the real latt...
