The structure and thermomagnetic properties of pulsed laser deposited polycrystalline Ni–Mn–Ga alloy films, grown onto thermally oxidized Si(100) wafers, have been investigated. The 300-nm-thick films were deposited at substrate temperatures between 500 and 600 °C from targets made from slices of a Ni2MnGa single crys…
Textured polycrystalline Fe-Ga alloys exhibit magnetostrictive strains of 100 ppm or greater and may function as a mechanically robust actuator/sensing material. Current efforts seek to combine the 300+ ppm magnetostrictive strain performance of [100] oriented single crystals with the mechanical properties of polycrys…
Amorphous silicon nitride (a-SiNx) overcoats are deposited on magnetic disks by rf-reactive sputtering to study their coverage and properties. According to the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis, a-SiNx has a low coverage-limit of ∼10 Å compared with that of the reference a-CNx (∼20 Å). The lower coverage-limit…
Anomalous positive magnetoresistance (MR) in high temperature organic-based magnet V(TCNE)x (TCNE=tetracynoethylene) thin films is reported. MR increases linearly with applied magnetic field and shows a maximum at the ferrimagnetic ordering temperature. The suggested roles of oppositely spin polarized π* electronic su…
The role of internal stresses on the pyroelectric properties of ferroelectric thin films is analyzed theoretically via a thermodynamic model. The pyroelectric coefficient as a function of the misfit strain is calculated for (001) Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 epitaxial thin films. It is shown that this property is highly dependent o…
Polycrystalline ferroelectric thin films of SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) and PbZr0.53Ti0.47O3 (PZT) were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate by pulsed laser deposition using an eclipse method and the surface potentials were observed by Kelvin probe force microscopy. The data suggest that the surface charge trap is a dominant eff…
Dielectric and magnetic properties of A-site substituted YMnO3 epitaxial films were studied. Stoichiometric epitaxial YMnO3 films clearly show ferroelectric behavior in P–E and C–V measurements. The I–V property is well explained by the Pool–Frenkel-type carrier emission with p-type conduction due to the existence of…
High-rate dry etching characteristics of aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) have been investigated in inductively coupled plasma (ICP) using BCl 3 /CH 4 /H 2 plasma chemistry. Etch rates were measured as a function of BCl 3 flow rate in BCl 3 /CH 4 /H 2 mixture and dc-bias voltage. Measurement of etch rate, and etched si…
The O( 3 P ) + C 2 H 6 reaction has been studied at two levels of theory. First, we have carried out high-level ab initio calculations of the various asymptotes and stationary points that are relevant to collision energies associated with low Earth orbit (LEO) conditions. CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ calculations indicate that C−C…
Abstract Two sets of homemade apparatus have been utilized to fabricate collagen/chitosan porous membranes by quenching its acetic solution and subsequently extracting the solvent with ethanol. The influence of chitosan concentration on the surface morphology of the collagen/chitosan membranes was studied using a quen…
ZnO based heterostructure, which contains magnetic impurities in the barrier layer, is grown on c-cut sapphire substrate by pulsed laser deposition. The temperature dependence of the mobility of the Zn0.9Mn0.1O/ZnO heterostructure exhibits the suppression of ionized impurity scattering below 100 K. The carrier concent…
A model for the dc plasma used in carbon nanotube growth is presented, and one-dimensional simulations of an acetylene/ammonia/argon system are performed. The effect of dc bias is illustrated by examining electron temperature, electron and ion densities, and neutral densities. Introducing a tungsten filament in the dc…
Recent reports of room temperature ferromagnetism in thin films of TiO2 doped with small amounts of cobalt have excited a great deal of interest due to the possible applications of this ferromagnetic, transparent semiconductor to spintronics devices. Ferromagnetism has been reported for TiO2 grown in both the anatase…
A field-emission display (5-in.) using thick-film carbon nanotube emitters is fabricated. A thick-film insulating layer and an emitter layer are employed for low-cost manufacturing and scalability to a large panel. A self-focus cathode for this display is proposed. An auxiliary electrode in contact with the cathode el…
Our study presents experimental results on Co2MnSi thin-film preparation and resulting magnetic properties of the Co2MnSi Heusler alloy. The focus of our work is on the important role of the microstructure and the magnetic properties relationships of Co2MnSi thin films prepared using dc magnetron sputtering. We examin…
We have investigated FexTi1−xO2−δ (x=0.02, 0.06, and 0.08) thin films grown on α-Al2O3 substrates by pulsed-laser deposition. X-ray diffraction results indicate that the films are single phase and of reduced-rutile type. Detailed microstructural observations reveal no measurable magnetic impurities in the films. Vibra…
We have studied the exchange coupling behavior of the epitaxial Nd–Co(11̄00)/Sm–Co exchange-spring bilayers. A shifted and asymmetric magnetic hysteresis loop of Nd–Co was recorded at room temperature with the exchange field Hex=−625 Oe. The magnitude of Hex increases with increasing temperature from 300 to 350 K, whi…
Mn–Zn ferrite thin films were deposited by sputtering a Mn0.6Zn0.4Fe2 alloy target, which was fabricated by powder metallurgy, in a mixture gas of Ar and O2. A 12 nm thick Pt underlayer was deposited at a substrate temperature of 300 °C. All specimen films were prepared in a reactive facing targets sputtering system.…
The magnetocaloric properties of the HoNi2 intermetallic compound are presented. Theoretical results predicted that the crystalline electric field is responsible for the second peak in the magnetic entropy change curve at low temperatures in HoNi2 single crystal oriented in the [100] direction. We present the isotherm…
FePt (for 40–60 at. % Fe) exhibits an order–disorder transformation. The disordered phase is face centered cubic and magnetically soft while the ordered phase is tetragonal and shows high magnetic anisotropy. Since the changes in volume between the two phases are small, it is easy for the soft and hard phases to coexi…
