چکیده

The temperature and field dependencies of magnetization of NdFeAsO0.94F0.06 bulk sample are shown to exhibit the Curie-Weiss behaviour, both in the superconducting and normal states. To address the origin of the strong paramagnetic signal, particularly to reveal contributions from antiferromagnetic second phases in sintered NdFeAsO0.94F0.06, the magnetic response of Nd2O3 was measured and compared with NdFeAsO0.94F0.06. Our measurements show that paramagnetism of NdFeAsO0.94F0.06 is an intrinsic property dominated by Nd ions contribution, which cannot be explained by magnetic second phases.

Nanoglasses: a new kind of noncrystalline materials

Nanoglasses are a new class of noncrystalline solids. They differ from today's glasses due to their microstructure that resembles the microstructure of polycrystals. They consist of regions with a melt-quenched glassy structure connected by interfacial regions, the structure of which is characterized (in comparison to the corresponding melt-quenched glass) by (1) a reduced (up to about 10%) den...

Synthesis and Characterization of Refractory Oxides Doped with Transition Metal Ions

In this study, the oxygen-deficient TiO 2 , SrTiO 3 systems and transition metal ion (Cr or V) doped TiO 2 , SrTiO 3 and SrZrO 3 systems have been investigated. We prepare samples as polycrystals, single crystals and thin films for various desires. Their structural, physical and electronic properties are measured by bulk-sensitive techniques (X-Ray Diffraction, SQUID and Electro Paramagnetic Re...

Elastic and Transport Properties in Polycrystals of Cracked Grains: Cross-Property Relations and Microstructure

Abstract Some arguments of Bristow (1960) concerning the effects of cracks on elastic and transport (i.e., electrical or thermal conduction) properties of cold-worked metals are reexamined. The discussion is posed in terms of a modern understanding of bounds and estimates for physical properties of polycrystals — in contrast to Bristow’s approach using simple mixture theory. One type of special...

Thermoelectric transport properties of pristine and Na-doped SnSe(1-x)Te(x) polycrystals.

SnSe, a "simple" and "old" binary compound composed of earth-abundant elements, has been reported to exhibit a high thermoelectric performance in single crystals, which stimulated recent interest in its polycrystalline counterparts. This work investigated the electrical and thermal transport properties of pristine and Na-doped SnSe1-xTex polycrystals prepared by mechanical alloying and spark pl...

Two-dimensional rigid polycrystals whose grains have one ductile direction

We consider polycrystals with perfectly plastic grains. We study the two-dimensional problem that results if the textures and applied stresses are compatible with antiplane deformation. We show that the order of magnitude of recently introduced outer bounds on the strength domain of polycrystals is sharp even under the assumption of square symmetry on the texture. We also conclude that the fact...
