Ferromagnetic nanoparticles are building blocks of future high density recording media and high performance permanent magnets. However, it is very challenging to produce nanoparticles with ferromagnetism at room temperature. The author describes recent progress in preparing ferromagnetic nanoparticles. Ferromagnetic nanoparticles can be used as building blocks for advanced bulk and thin fi lm m...

Magnetization, resistivity, thermal expansion, thermopower, and neutron powder diffraction data are presented for the perovskite manganite Pr0.7Ba0.3MnO3. A distinct ferromagnetic insulating state, similar to that observed in the La0.88Sr0.12MnO3 system, is observed in the temperature range between the paramagneticferromagnetic transition at TFM'180 K and the broad metal-insulator transition ne...

Possible consequences of ferromagnetic transition in dense matter suggested recently by Kutschera and Wójcik, for the magnetic properties of neutron stars, are studied. Specific model of dense matter, in which a small admixture of protons is completely polarized due to their interaction with neutrons, is considered. Magnetic field of neutron stars with a ferromagnetic core are calculated within...

It is shown that exchange interactions of spins across the boundary between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers can cause a shift in the observed hysteresis loop of the ferromagnetic layer. The effect may be interpreted as a self-energy shift of each ferromagnetic spin due to emission and reabsorption of virtual antiferromagnetic spin waves. Emission of these waves by one ferromagnetic s...

Colossal electroresistance (CER) has been observed in the ferromagnetic insulating (FMI) state of a manganite. Notably, the CER in the FMI state occurs in the absence of magnetoresistance (MR). Measurements of electroresistance (ER) and current induced resistivity switching have been performed in the ferromagnetic insulating state of a single crystal manganite of composition Nd0.7Pb0.3MnO3 (NPM...

The paper presents a modern method of computer modeling, concerning the low-voltage extinguishing chambers employed in modular apparatuses. focus was put on presenting phenomenon increasing blow-out, through use ferromagnetic plates, dividing electric arc inside electrical apparatus. material for production results distortion magnetic field generated by arc. This creates force that draws toward...

natural vibration analysis of plates represents an important issue in engineering applications. in this paper, a new and simplify method for vibration analysis of circular and rectangular plates is presented. the design of an effective robust controller, which consistently attenuates transverse vibration of the plate caused by an external disturbance force, is given. the dynamics of the plate i...

this paper provides an overview of how the surface properties of ferromagnetic nanoparticles dispersed in fluids is modified by natural and biocompatible polymers. among common magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite (fe3o4) and maghemite (g-fe203) are popular candidates because of their biocompatibility. natural polymeric coating materials are the most commonly used biocompatible magnetic nanopartic...
