Extraordinary optical properties of a superconducting periodic multilayer in near-zero-permittivity operation range
Optical properties in a one-dimensional periodic multilayer structure consisting of superconducting and dielectric films are rigorously studied. Due to the temperature- and wavelength-dependent refrac...

Neutron structural studies on the superconducting (Nd1−xCax)(Ba1.6La0.4)Cu3Oz system
We have investigated the influence of Ca ion substitution on the structural and superconducting properties of (Nd1−xCax)(Ba1.6La0.4)Cu3Oz system. Magnetization, x-ray diffraction, and neutron di...

We report magnetic behavior of a dilute ferromagnetic alloy Ni1−xMnx, 0<x<25%. Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) is used to examine the local magnetic moment on each element, and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry is used to evaluate the magnetization of the alloy as a whole. Both MCD and hysteresis loops show a collapse in moment at x[approximate]15% measured at 100 K. The Mn doping appears to disturb the long-range ordering of the host nickel spins which, in the concentration range studied, is a precursor disordered ferromagnet prior to a spin-glass phase. ©2009 American Institute of Physics
