We present an investigation of heat transport in gapless graphene-based ferromagnetic/singlet superconductor/ferromagnetic junctions. We find that unlike the uniform increase in the thermal conductance versus temperature, the thermal conductance exhibits intensive oscillatory behavior versus width of sandwiched s-wave…

Hydrotalcite nanocrystals doped with Eu(III) ions were prepared by the microemulsion method. XRPD measurements revealed that europium ions are very likely incorporated in a low-symmetry hydrotalcite-type layer. TEM and AFM imaging indicated that nanocrystals have a 150 nm width and a plate shape. Luminescence measurem…
