We show that ferromagnetic films separated by a spacer of amorphous Si are exchange coupled for Si thicknesses ${d}_{\mathrm{Si}}\ensuremath{\le}40$\AA{}. For $14\AA{}<{d}_{\mathrm{Si}}<22\AA{}$ we observe antiferromagnetic coupling. The coupling strength of approximately 5 \ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{} ${1…

I present observations of interfacial tension between miscible pairs of silicate liquid and propose a theoretical model that quantitatively accounts for them. Viscoelastic rheology of the liquids permits the establishment of gradient stress completely analogous to thermal stress in Maxwell solids; this is expected whe…

The addition of 0.4–8.6 at. % Co to Cu thin films strongly influences the temperature evolution of microstructure, stress, and resistivity. For concentrations near 1 at. % Co in coevaporated Cu-Co on oxidized Si, normal grain growth begins at about 75 °C, about 50 °C lower than in pure Cu. There is an abrupt decrease…

We provide a theoretical explanation for the observed quasiuniversality of the ratio of the long-time to short-time self-diffusion coefficients in the colloidal liquids at freezing. We also predict that the mean-squared displacement at freezing, plotted against a suitably renormalized time, yields a universal curve sh…

Abstract The structure of oriented polyaniline (PANI) films were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, XPS, SEM, and X‐ray diffraction, and their electrical properties were measured as a function of the protonation state, elongation ratio, temperature, and applied pressure. A maximum conductivity at room temperat…

The relaxation time of the magnetization of a big magnetic molecule is evaluated. Isotropic exchange is assumed to be dominant, resulting in a fixed spin modulus s (equal to 20 in the case of interest). A perturbation of the form AS z 2 results from spin-orbit coupling and produces an energy barrier As 2 which separat…

\nThe growth of micron-size carbon fibres from thermal decomposition of hydrocarbons catalyzed by a metal has been widely studied. Coil-shaped fibres often grow among straight or twisted filaments. Their internal structure has not been studied in detail as yet. In the present work, the thermal cracking of acetylene on…

The extremely large zero-field splitting of Fe 3+ ions at the tetragonal FeF 5 O site in Fe 3+ :KMgF 3 crystals has been interpreted on the basis of a second- to sixth-order perturbation approach, in which the spin-orbit coupling is regarded as the perturbation to the crystal-field and electrostatic interactions.
