Ferroelectricity and Curie temperature are demonstrated for epitaxial Y-doped HfO2 film grown on (110) yttrium oxide-stabilized zirconium oxide (YSZ) single crystal using Sn-doped In2O3 (ITO) as bottom electrodes. The XRD measurements for epitaxial film enabled us to investigate its detailed crystal structure including orientations of the film. The ferroelectricity was confirmed by electric dis...

High pressure magnetization and Curie temperature measurements have been performed on several amorphous Y,Ni,-, alloys. The results seem to indicate that ferromagnetism disappears in a rather inhomogeneous way.

Recent theoretical work for Ga1−xMnxN predicts ferromagnetism in this materials system with Curie temperatures above room temperature. Ferromagnetic behavior observed in Ga1−xMnxN is still controversial, as there are conflicting experimental reports owing to the disparity in c

In this study, we develop a local heating method and monitoring method for hyperthermia using the Ferromagnetic Implant with Low Curie Temperature (FILCT) under a high frequency magnetic field. We describe the experimental setup and in vitro experimental results.

The angular and temperature (10-250 K) variation of the Knight shift of single-crystalline U(Pt0.95Pd0.05)3 has been measured in transverse field (B=0.6 T) μSR experiments. By analysing the temperature variation of the Knight shift with a modified Curie-Weiss expression the muon localization site in this hexagonal material is determined at (0,0,0).

Dilute ferromagnetic oxides having Curie temperatures far in excess of 300 K and exceptionally large ordered moments per transition-metal cation challenge our understanding of magnetism in solids. These materials are high-k dielectrics with degenerate or thermally activated n-type semiconductivity. Conventional super-exchange or double-exchange interactions cannot produce long-range magnetic or...

intruduction: red beds have been widely studied by palaeomagnetic methods for what they can tell us about the history of sedimentary basins and their subsequent deformation (collinson, 1974, turner, 1979a,b and 1981, mccabe and elmore, 1989, elmor, et al., 1993 and 2000). this study has investigated the palaeomagnetism of the cambrian red sediments (dezou and dahou formation) of the eastern mar...

Magnetic and magneto-optical properties were measured at room temperature in the Mn-diffused surface layer of a CdGeP2 single crystal. The magnetization curve measured using VSM clearly shows a ferromagnetic hysteresis loop with Hc=0.4 kOe superposed on the diamagnetic component. The ferromagnetic Curie temperature was determined as 320 K from the magnetization vs. temperature curve. The magnet...

A ferroelectric heater under A.C. field was demonstrated by using lead zirconate titanate and barium titanate ceramics. The temperature of the ceramics was increased from room temperature to its curie temperature of phase transition under an A.C. field. The heating characteristics greatly depend on the compositions of ceramics. It is proposed that the heating behavior is related to the domain s...
