Book Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths

Download or read book Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths written by Karl A. Gschneidner and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1995 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 20 completes the second decade of volumes in this series and focuses on the physical aspects of metallic compounds. Research efforts on metallic rare earth compounds started in earnest about 50 years ago and received a significant boost with the discovery of the RCo5 permanent magnets about 12 years later. During this time much has been learned about the structure as well as the electrical, magnetic and thermal properties of approximately 2500 binary rare earth metallic compounds. However, if one considers the possible true ternary compounds and possible pseudo-binary ternary alloys formed by mixing two binary compounds, there is still a wealth of knowledge to be obtained from these still-to-be discovered materials. This volume makes a start in this direction. Chapter one deals with the Fermi surfaces of rare earth (Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd and Yb) intermetallic compounds. It begins with an introduction to the relevant theories required to describe the electrons near the Fermi surface and then to the basic experimental techniques to study these surfaces. The main portion of the chapter is devoted to a comparison of the experimental results with the band structure calculations for a large number of compounds. Chapter two examines the world of thin films of rare earth metals, alloys and compounds. The three main topics covered are the pure metals themselves, metallic alloys and compounds, and metalloid compounds. The next chapter is devoted to hydrogen in metals and their binary compounds RH2 and RH3. One of the critical problems is the purity of the starting rare earth metal itself because phase relations can be greatly affected by impurities and attention is therefore paid to the preparation of specimens and the phase diagrams. Structural properties, kinetics and thermodynamic behavior, as well as electronic, magnetic and thermal properties are reviewed as well. Also examined is the profound influence of hydrogen on the magnetic properties by the mediation of RKKY interaction in these materials. The final chapter is an update on the magnetic behaviors of lanthanide intermetallic compounds, an area which has seen many new developments in the last 15 years. The chapter is divided into two main parts. Part one is devoted to 3d magnetism where both the 3d metal and lanthanide element contribute to the magnetic behavior, and the second part is concerned with lanthanide magnetism itself.

Book Magnetic Properties of Rare Earth Metals

Download or read book Magnetic Properties of Rare Earth Metals written by R. Elliott and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rare earths have a unique place among the elements. Although very much alike chemically and in most phy~ical properties they each have very different and striking magnetic properties. The reason, of course, lies in their 4f electrons which determine the magnetic properties but have little effect on other chemical and physical behaviour. Although they are not rare, some indeed are among the more common heavy elements in the earth's crust, the difficulty of separation has meant that their intricate magnetic properties have only recently been unravelled. Now, however, the general pattern of their magnetism is well charted and the underlying theory is well understood. Both are thoroughly summarised in this book. It provides an excellent example of the kind of extensive synthesis which is possible with modem solid state physics. it represents only a high plateau in the ascent to complete understanding. But It will become clear to the reader that while the overall position is satisfactory there are many details still to be elucidated experimentally and much to be done theoretically before all the underlying forces are identified and estimated from a priori calculations. It is hoped that the book will provide a useful stimulus in this direction. It should also be of use to those who are interested in related disciplines, for example the rare earth compounds, or the transition metals. In addition rare earths promise to be important technologically as alloy constituents.

Book Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths

Download or read book Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths written by Karl Albert Gschneidner and published by North-Holland. This book was released on 1996 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume covers various physical aspects of a wide range of rare-earth materials. Magnetic phenomena dominate the contents of the first four chapters which deal with thin films and layered structures, and intermetallic and nonmetallic compounds. The remaining two chapters deal with coherent emission and electronic structure calculations of lanthanide molecules.The first chapter covers the state-of-the-art of the synthesis and properties of thin films of the rare-earth metals and layered superstructures of two rare-earth metals. The following chapter is a review of rare-earth-transition metal nanoscale multilayers and describes the recent advances in our understanding of magnetic structure, interfacial magnetism, and origin of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of lanthanide-transition-metal nanoscale multilayers. The next chapter deals with one of the important series of rare-earth intermetallic compounds, those which possess the ThNm 12 -type structure. The authors of the following chapter review the specific magnetic and magnetoelastic properties of certain crystals, which are determined by the localized electronic magnetic moments of the lanthanide ions in the crystal lattice and their interactions with each other and surrounding ions. The chapter on coherent emission differs from other reviews on the subject in that it concentrates on the broader issues. Here the emphasis is on superradiance, superfluorescence, amplification of spontaneous emission by other stimulated emision than the laser effect and coherent spontaneous emission. The final chapter describes the progress that has been made in electronic structure calculations of lanthanide-containing molecules, especially in the last 10 years.

Book Heat Capacities  Magnetic Properties  and Resistivities of Ternary RPdBi Alloys where R

Download or read book Heat Capacities Magnetic Properties and Resistivities of Ternary RPdBi Alloys where R written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four and a half decades research on the rare earths, their compounds, and their alloys has yielded significant insights into the nature of materials. The rare earths can be used to systematically study a series of alloys or compounds. Magnetic ordering, crystalline fields, spin fluctuations, the magnetocaloric effect, and magnetostriction are a small sample of phenomena studied that are exhibited by the rare earth family. A significant portion of research has been conducted on the abundant RM2 and RM phases, where R is the rare earth and M is a transition metal. The natural progression of science has led to the study of related RMX ternary phases, where X is either another transition metal or semimetal. There are now over 1,000 known RMX phases. The focus of this study is on RPdBi where R = La, Nd, Gd, Dy, Er, and Lu. Their heat capacities, magnetic properties, and resistivities are studied.

Book Study of New Ternary Rare Earth Intermetallic Germanides with Polar Covalent Bonding

Download or read book Study of New Ternary Rare Earth Intermetallic Germanides with Polar Covalent Bonding written by Riccardo Freccero and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thesis focuses on the syntheses, structural characterizations and chemical bonding analyses for several ternary R–M–Ge (R = rare earth metal; M = another metal) intermetallics. The challenges in understanding the main interactions governing the chemistry of these compounds, which lead to our inability to predict their formation, structure and properties, are what provided the motivation for this study. In particular, the R2MGe6 (M = Li, Mg, Al, Cu, Zn, Pd, Ag), R4MGe10-x (M = Li, Mg), R2Pd3Ge5, Lu5Pd4Ge8, Lu3Pd4Ge4 and Yb2PdGe3 phases were synthesized and structurally characterized. Much effort was put into the stabilization of metastable phases, employing the innovative metal flux method, and into the accurate structure solution of twinned crystals. Cutting-edge position-space chemical bonding techniques were combined with new methodologies conceived to correctly describe the Ge–M, Ge–La and also La–M polar-covalent interactions for the La2MGe6 (M = Li, Mg, Al, Cu, Zn, Pd, Ag) series. The present results constitute a step forward in our comprehension of ternary germanide chemistry as well as providing a good playground for further investigations.

Book Rare earth Transition metal Intermetallics

Download or read book Rare earth Transition metal Intermetallics written by Mi-Kyung Han and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to explore novel rare-earth, transition metal compounds and to investigate their structure and bonding and how these influence their properties. We have focused on the synthesis, characterization and electronic structure investigations, as well as physical properties of ternary rare-earth Fe-rich intermetallics, e.g., LaFe[subscript 13-x]Si[subscript x], and RE[subscript 2-x]Fe4Si[subscript 14-y], etc. The LaFe[subscript 13-x]Si[subscript x], (1.0 [equal to or less than] x [equal to or less than] 5.0) compounds with structures related to the cubic NaZn13−type are an important series of compounds to study for possible efficient magnetic refrigeration. A systematic structural study of the compositional variation in LaFe[subscript 13-x]Si[subscript x], exhibits a structural transformation from the cubic NaZn13−structure type to a tetragonal derivative due to preferential ordering of Fe and Si atoms. Temperature-dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction at various temperatures and electronic structure calculations (both Extended Hückel and TB-LMTO) was performed on the cubic phases to examine the origin of the large magnetic entropy change. The giant magnetocaloric effect of cubic LaFe[subscript 13-x]Si[subscript x] alloys results from coupling between magnetic ordering and structural transformation. In light of the potential superstructures that could be observed for RE[subscript 2-x]Fe4Si[subscript 14-y] as well as possible modifications of semiconducting [Beta]-FeSi2, we report herein a thorough examination of the chemical composition and structure of RE[subscript 2-x]Fe4Si[subscript 14-y] (RE = Y, Gd-Lu) using a combination of electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction, and demonstrate a new superstructure for this class of compound. The structures are built up of rare-earth silicide planes with approximate compositions "RE1.2Si1.9" alternating with [Beta]-FeSi2-derived (hkl)-type slabs. Investigation by transition electron microscopy (TEM) reveals a superstructure in the crystallographic ab-plane. Fe Mössbauer spectra confirm two different iron environments in superstructure. Magnetic susceptibilities suggest weak magnetic coupling between rare-earth elements, and resistance measurements indicate poor metallic behavior with a large residual resistivity at low temperatures, which is consistent with disorder. Electronic structure calculations on model structures identify a pseudogap in the densities of states for specific valence electron counts that helps to provide a useful electron counting scheme for this class of rare-earth/transition metal/main group compound.
