Colossal magnetoresistance is a rare phenomenon in which the electronic resistivity of a material can be decreased by orders of magnitude upon application of a magnetic field. Such an effect could be the basis of the next generation of memory devices. Here we report CMR in the antiferromagnetic oxypnictide NdMnAsO(1-x…

A neptunium analog of the LaFeAsO tetragonal layered compound has been synthesized and characterized by a variety of experimental techniques. The occurrence of long-range magnetic order below a critical temperature ${T}_{\mathrm{N}}$ $=$ 57 K is suggested by anomalies in the temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibili…

Experiments on quasi-one-dimensional systems such as quantum wires and metallic chains on surfaces suggest the existence of electron-electron interactions of substantial range and hence physics beyond the Hubbard model. We therefore investigate one-dimensional, quarter-filled chains with a Coulomb potential with varia…

The activation of dioxygen is a key step in CO oxidation catalyzed by gold nanoparticles. It is known that small gold cluster anions with even-numbered atoms can molecularly chemisorb O(2) via one-electron transfer from Au(n)(-) to O(2), whereas clusters with odd-numbered atoms are inert toward O(2). Here we report sp…

This paper describes the corrosion behaviour of SiO2 glass hollow fibres by hydrofluoric acid (HF). The decrease of corrosion rate after 6 h etching could be explained by the change of surface area and concentration of the HF solution. The small and positive ΔS implies that the decrease in disordering takes place due…
