Some useful numerical calculations are presented to explain the EMAT behavior with general geometric arrangements. It is indicated that for the ferromagnetic material the magnetostriction effect dominates the EMAT phenomenon for ultrasonic wave generation in low magnetic field intensity, while the material does not reach its magnetizing saturation. But, with the increase of the bias magnetic field and saturation, the magnetostrictive terms will make no contributions to the ultrasonic generation and the Lorentz force becomes the only exciting mechanism. It is important to determine both the Lorentz and magnetostriction forces and select the appropriate working manner for achieving an optimized design.展开更多

Some studies on the feasibility of the MBN method for NDE of residual strains were also conducted and found applicable. However, these studies are mainly focused on the state of residual strains which were introduced through a one-cycle-loading process. In practice, however, structures may suffer from an unpredictable and complicated loading history, i.e., the final state of plastic strain may be induced by several times of large loads. Whether the loading history has influences on MBN signals or not is of great importance for the practical application of the MBN method. In this paper, several ferromagnetic specimens with the same final state of residual strain but of different loading history were fabricated and inspected by using a MBN testing system. The experimental results reveal that the loading history has a significant influence on the detected MBN signals especially for a residual strain in range less than 1%, which doubts the feasibility to apply the MBN method simply in the practical environment. In addition, micro-observations on the magnetic domain structures of the plastic damaged specimens were also carried out to clarify the influence mechanism of loading history on the MBN signals.展开更多

The results indicate that the permeability is always positive for 5 = (2q +0.5)π (5 is the initial phase difference of magnetic components hx and hy of incident electromagnetic wave, q is integer), which means that it is difficult to realize negative refraction. However, for 5 = 2qπ, 5 = (2q + 1)π, or 5 = (2q - 0.5)π, the negative permeability occurs at some range of free procession frequency, which means that the refraction can become negative under certain conditions. Further analysis reveals that for general positive permittivity there are various opportunities for realizing the negative refraction provided that some requirements are met. One concludes also that the refractive index for δ = 2qπ case is similar to 5 = (2q + 1)π The only difference between two cases of δ = 2qπ and 5 = (2q + 1)π is that the x-direction for δ = 2qπ corresponds to the y-direction for 5 = (2q + 1)π and the y-direction for 5 = 2qπ corresponds to the x-direction for δ = (2q + 1)π. The results are valuable for designing and analysing the complex negative refraction of magnetic materials.展开更多

Thus, this pseudobinary rare earth iron compound has found quite a number of applications such as in magnetomechanical transducers, actuators and adaptive vibration control systems. The simultaneous measurements of magnetostriction and magnetization at various fixed compressive pre-stresses applied in the axial direction for Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.95 samples are presented. The results show that the magnetostriction increases with increasing compressive stress until it reaches 1742 ×10^6 under 25 MPa, so does the coercive magnetic field. And the hysteresis loop area for magnetization and magnetostriction also increases with the increment of applied compressive stresses. But the maximum magnetic susceptibility χ(dM/dH) is obtained under zero stress field and the strain derivative dλ/dH increases to the highest amplitude of 0.039×10^-6 A^-1m at a stress level of 5 MPa. In the strain versus magnetization intensity curve, the initial fiat stage mainly consisting of a 180° domain wall motion becomes shorter with increasing stress. It means more initial domains are driven to the transversal direction under the compressive stress before magnetization, which is consistent with the improvement of the magnetostriction.展开更多

An experiment was designed to elevate the temperatures of six different materials (Au, Ag, Cu, Fe, Al, Ni) up to 600 ℃and precisely measured their weights. It is found all the materials weigh about 0.33 ‰ - 0. 82 ‰ less. For example the weight of silver sample weighted by a precision electronic scale in a manner of special design decreases about 0.8 ‰, when its temperature is elevated to 600 ℃. Thus different metals' gravitational forces or weights are adjusted with temperature variation.展开更多

Since most 2D FM materials come from van der Waals crystals, stabilizing them on a certain substrate without killing the ferromagnetism is still a challenge. Through systematic first-principles calculations, we proposed a new family of 2D FM materials which combines TaX (X= S, Se or Te) monolayer and A1203(0001) substrate. The TaX monolayers provide magnetic states and the A1203(0001) substrate stabilizes the former. Interestingly, the A1203(0001) substrate leads to a metal-to-insulator transition in the TaX monolayers and induces a band gap up to 303 meV. Our study paves the way to explore promising 2D FM materials for practical applications in spintronics devices.展开更多

The structural and magnetic properties of samples with different thermal treatment were characterized by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction (SR-XRD), high resolution transmission electron mi- croscopy (HRTEM), Rutherford backscattering/channeling and the superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer. The SR-XRD results reveal the formation of hcp and fce phases of Co clusters, and the SR-XRD and HRTEM show that Co nanocrystals (NCs) have been formed in TiO2 after ion implantation. With increasing of annealing temperature, the transition of hcp to fcc Co is observed, and the Co NCs sizes were increased with increasing post-annealing temperature. At annealing temperature 1073 K, the lattice damaged is significantly removed compared with the virgin sample. The Co NCs forming inside TiO2 are the major contribution of the measured ferromagnetism.展开更多

Magnetic memory signals were measured during the test process. The results show that only one point of Hp(y) zero value exists in all measured magnetic signal curves during the loading process, which should be a sign of intersection of positive-negative magnetic poles after magnetic ordered state appears and does not indicate the position of surface crack precut. The analysis shows that the surface crack precut can not interrupt the magnetic ordered state occurred during the test completely, hence its Hp(y) value is not zero. However, the crack extending to a penetrated defect at the instant of specimen′s fracture leads to the discontinuance of magnetic ordered state.展开更多

文摘Based on the proper assumptions and approximations, the coupling mechanism of the electromagnetic acoustic transducer (EMAT) for ultrasonic generation within ferromagnetic material was studied by analyzing the eddy current distribution, Lorentz force, magnetostriction force and magnetization force. Some useful numerical calculations are presented to explain the EMAT behavior with general geometric arrangements. It is indicated that for the ferromagnetic material the magnetostriction effect dominates the EMAT phenomenon for ultrasonic wave generation in low magnetic field intensity, while the material does not reach its magnetizing saturation. But, with the increase of the bias magnetic field and saturation, the magnetostrictive terms will make no contributions to the ultrasonic generation and the Lorentz force becomes the only exciting mechanism. It is important to determine both the Lorentz and magnetostriction forces and select the appropriate working manner for achieving an optimized design.

The simultaneous measurements of magnetostriction and magnetization at various fixed compressive pre-stresses applied in the axial direction for Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.95 samples are presented. The results show that the magnetostriction increases with increasing compressive stress until it reaches 1742 ×10^6 under 25 MPa, so does the coercive magnetic field. And the hysteresis loop area for magnetization and magnetostriction also increases with the increment of applied compressive stresses. But the maximum magnetic susceptibility χ(dM/dH) is obtained under zero stress field and the strain derivative dλ/dH increases to the highest amplitude of 0.039×10^-6 A^-1m at a stress level of 5 MPa. In the strain versus magnetization intensity curve, the initial fiat stage mainly consisting of a 180° domain wall motion becomes shorter with increasing stress. It means more initial domains are driven to the transversal direction under the compressive stress before magnetization, which is consistent with the improvement of the magnetostriction.
文摘The authors discovered in first time that the weight of materials or its gravitational force by earth related to its temperature and its ferromagnetism. An experiment was designed to elevate the temperatures of six different materials (Au, Ag, Cu, Fe, Al, Ni) up to 600 ℃and precisely measured their weights. It is found all the materials weigh about 0.33 ‰ - 0. 82 ‰ less. For example the weight of silver sample weighted by a precision electronic scale in a manner of special design decreases about 0.8 ‰, when its temperature is elevated to 600 ℃. Thus different metals' gravitational forces or weights are adjusted with temperature variation.

文摘Two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic (FM) materials have great potential for applications in next-generation spin- tronic devices. Since most 2D FM materials come from van der Waals crystals, stabilizing them on a certain substrate without killing the ferromagnetism is still a challenge. Through systematic first-principles calculations, we proposed a new family of 2D FM materials which combines TaX (X= S, Se or Te) monolayer and A1203(0001) substrate. The TaX monolayers provide magnetic states and the A1203(0001) substrate stabilizes the former. Interestingly, the A1203(0001) substrate leads to a metal-to-insulator transition in the TaX monolayers and induces a band gap up to 303 meV. Our study paves the way to explore promising 2D FM materials for practical applications in spintronics devices.

文摘Ferromagnetic materials play an important role in memory materials,but conventional control methods are often limited by issues such as high power consumption and volatility.Multiferroic heterostructures provide a promising alternative to achieve low power consumption and nonvolatile electric control of magnetic properties.In this paper,a two-dimensional multiferroic van der Waals heterostructure OsCl_(2)/Sc_(2)CO_(2),which is composed of ferromagnetic monolayer OsCl_(2)and ferroelectric monolayer Sc_(2)CO_(2),is studied by first-principles density functional theory.The results show that by reversing the direction of the electric polarization of Sc_(2)CO_(2),OsCl_(2)can be transformed from a semiconductor to a half-metal,demonstrating a nonvolatile electrical manipulation of the heterostructure through ferroelectric polarization.The underlying physical mechanism is explained by band alignments and charge density differences.Furthermore,based on the heterostructure,we construct a multiferroic tunnel junction with a tunnel electroresistance ratio of 3.38×10^(14)%and a tunnel magnetoresistance ratio of 5.04×10^(6)%,allowing control of conduction states via instantaneous electric or magnetic fields.The findings provide a feasible strategy for designing advanced nanodevices based on the giant tunnel electroresistance and tunnel magnetoresistance effects.

文摘Crystalline Co nanocomposites in the rutile TiO2 were synthesized by 180 keV Co ion beam implantation at temperature of 623 K with the fluence of 4×10^16 cm^-2. The structural and magnetic properties of samples with different thermal treatment were characterized by synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction (SR-XRD), high resolution transmission electron mi- croscopy (HRTEM), Rutherford backscattering/channeling and the superconducting quantum interference device magnetometer. The SR-XRD results reveal the formation of hcp and fce phases of Co clusters, and the SR-XRD and HRTEM show that Co nanocrystals (NCs) have been formed in TiO2 after ion implantation. With increasing of annealing temperature, the transition of hcp to fcc Co is observed, and the Co NCs sizes were increased with increasing post-annealing temperature. At annealing temperature 1073 K, the lattice damaged is significantly removed compared with the virgin sample. The Co NCs forming inside TiO2 are the major contribution of the measured ferromagnetism.

文摘Static tensile test and tensile-tensile fatigue test of medium carbon steel sheet specimens with surface crack precut were performed on MTS810 hydraulic testing machine to clear the meaning of the point of Hp(y) value zero. Magnetic memory signals were measured during the test process. The results show that only one point of Hp(y) zero value exists in all measured magnetic signal curves during the loading process, which should be a sign of intersection of positive-negative magnetic poles after magnetic ordered state appears and does not indicate the position of surface crack precut. The analysis shows that the surface crack precut can not interrupt the magnetic ordered state occurred during the test completely, hence its Hp(y) value is not zero. However, the crack extending to a penetrated defect at the instant of specimen′s fracture leads to the discontinuance of magnetic ordered state.

文摘High-quality Fe-doped TiO_(2) films are epitaxially grown on MgF_(2) substrates by pulsed laser deposition.The x-ray diffraction and Raman spectra prove that they are of pure rutile phase.High-resolution transmission electron microscopy(TEM)further demonstrates that the epitaxial relationship between rutile-phased TiO_(2) and MgF_(2) substrates is 110 TiO_(2)||110 MgF_(2).The room temperature ferromagnetism is detected by alternative gradient magnetometer.By increasing the ambient oxygen pressure,magnetization shows that it decreases monotonically while absorption edge shows a red shift.The transport property measurement demonstrates a strong correlation between magnetization and carrier concentration.The influence of ambient oxygen pressure on magnetization can be well explained by a modified bound magnetization polarization model.

文摘The electromagnetic properties of Ba2Co1.8Cu0.2Fe12O22 (Co2Y) and Ba3Co2Fe23.4Zn0.6O41 (Co2Z) were studied by measuring microwave scattering parameters.In the transmission spectra of Ba2Co1.8Cu0.2Fe12O22,a forbidden band emerges due to ferromagnetic resonance,and the permeability will turn to negative in the vicinity of the ferromagnetic resonance frequency.In the complex permittivity spectra of Ba3Co2Fe23.4Zn0.6O41,the negative permittivity can be obtained due to dielectric resonance.Therefore,Co2Y and Co2Z can be used to construct left-handed materials possessing negative permeability and negative permittivity simultaneously.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)transition metal oxyhalides and nitrogen-halides(T_(M)BXs,where T_(M)=transition metal,B=O-group and N-group elements,X=halogen)have emerged as promising candidates for exploring multiferroic orders and spintronic applications.In this study,we conduct a systematic firstprinciples high-throughput screening combined with machine learning to identify novel 2D ferromagnetic and multiferroic materials within T_(M)BX family.From a comprehensive dataset comprising 672 T_(M)BX monolayers,we identify 78 ferromagnetic systems,of which 38 exhibit high Curie temperatures(TC≥200 K),significantly expanding the known library of 2D magnetic materials.A machine learningmodel is developed to elucidate the key factors governing ferromagnetism,revealing that the second-nearest neighbor exchange interaction(J_(2))plays a dominant role in determining TC.Furthermore,we discovered seven ferromagnetic-ferroelectric multiferroic systems,revealing unique polarization switching pathways.Notably,spin transport simulations using the nonequilibriumGreen’s function formalism demonstrate exceptional spin filtering capabilities(~100%)and giant biasdependent tunneling magnetoresistance(>10^(5)%).These findings deepen the fundamental understanding of 2D multiferroics and establish a desired platformfor future experimental exploration and the development of next-generation spintronic devices.
