We demonstrate that the ground state of this compound is in bicollinear antiferromag- netic order with Fe local moments (- 2.6 μB) that are ferromagnetically aligned along a diagonal direction and antiferromagnetically aligned along the other diagonal in the Fe-Fe square lattice, sim- ilar to the alignment discovered in the parent compound of superconductor α-FeTe. This bicollinear antiferromagnetic order results from the interplay among the nearest, next-nearest, and next-next- nearest neighbor exchange interactions, which are mediated by Te 5p orbitals. This finding may aid our understanding of the interplay between magnetism and superconductivity in the family of iron-based materials.展开更多

It is found that, form from long-range ferromagnetic order to spin-cluster glass with the increase of Sm doping amount, the samples transstate and anti-ferromagnetic state; and when x = 0.60, the transport property becomes abnormal under magnetic background; and the magnetic structure changes and extra magnetic coupling induced by doping leads to colossal magnetoresistance effect. The transport mechanism of metallic conduction at low temperature is mainly electron-magneton interaction and can be fitted by the formula ρ = ρ0 + AT^4.5, and the insulatorlike transport mechanism on high temperature range is mainly the function of variable-range hopping and can be fitted by the formula ρ = ρ0exp(T0/T)^1/4. In the formulas above, p is resistivity, T is temperature, and A, ρ0, T0 are constants.展开更多

The ESR results indicate that the polycrystalline ceramic Nd:YAG has barely native defects and impurity ions localization defects, compared to an Nd:YAG crystal with the same Nd doping concentration, due to its density structure by sintering in a vacuum pure raw material and additives during the fabrication. It may conclude that the high quality ceramic Nd:YAG may have greater ability on optical characteristic, mechanical performance, and laser damage than that of the crystals, which is a promising candidate to use on laser diode-pumped solid-state lasers.展开更多
