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.
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.

This book was released on 2016-01-23 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rare Earth and Transition Metal Doping of Semiconductor Material explores traditional semiconductor devices that are based on control of the electron's electric charge. This book looks at the semiconductor materials used for spintronics applications, in particular focusing on wide band-gap semiconductors doped with transition metals and rare earths. These materials are of particular commercial interest because their spin can be controlled at room temperature, a clear opposition to the most previous research on Gallium Arsenide, which allowed for control of spins at supercold temperatures. Part One of the book explains the theory of magnetism in semiconductors, while Part Two covers the growth of semiconductors for spintronics. Finally, Part Three looks at the characterization and properties of semiconductors for spintronics, with Part Four exploring the devices and the future direction of spintronics. - Examines materials which are of commercial interest for producing smaller, faster, and more power-efficient computers and other devices - Analyzes the theory behind magnetism in semiconductors and the growth of semiconductors for spintronics - Details the properties of semiconductors for spintronics

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.

This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent developments in electronic structure theory have led to a new understanding of magnetic materials at the microscopic level. This enables a truly first-principles approach to investigations of technologically important magnetic materials. Among the advances treated here have been practical schemes for handling non-collinear magnetic systems, including relativity, and an understanding of the origins and role of orbital magnetism within band structure formalisms. This book provides deep theoretical insight into magnetism, mahneatic materials, and magnetic systems. It covers these recent developments with review articles by some of the main originators of these developments.
