    Author : Hans Lidbaum; Klaus Leifer; Peter Svedlindh; Josef Zweck; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transmission electron microscopy; TEM; magnetism; multilayer; superlattice; thin films; amorphous metals; electron energy-loss magnetic circular dichroism; EMCD; electron diffraction; Magnetism; Magnetism; Surfaces and interfaces; Ytor och mellanytor; Physics; Fysik; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid State Physics; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot fasta tillståndets fysik; Materiefysik; Physics of Matter;

    Abstract : Structural characterization is essential for the understanding of the magnetic properties of thin films and multilayers. In this thesis, both crystalline and amorphous thin films and multilayers were analyzed utilizing transmission electron microscopy (TEM). READ MORE

  2. 2. Theory of Crystal Fields and Magnetism of f-electron Systems

    Author : Massimiliano Colarieti Tosti; Olle Eriksson; Walter Temmerman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical physics; Crystal Field; Magnetism; Electronic Structure; Teoretisk fysik; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : A parameter free approach for the calculation of the crystal field splitting of the lowest Russel-Saunders J-multiplet in f-electron systems has been developed and applied to selected compounds. The developed theory is applicable to general symmetries and is based on symmetry constrained density functional theory calculations in the local density or in the generalised gradient approximation.

  3. 3. Spin ice under uniaxial pressure and magnetic frustration in garnets

    Author : Richard Edberg; Patrik Henelius; Santiago A. Grigera; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetism; fysik; spin is; frustrerad magnetism; värmekapacitet; heat capacity; spin ice; physics; magnetism; Material and Nano Physics; Material- och nanofysik;

    Abstract : Frustration is the inability to simultaneously satisfy all interactions. The interest in magnetic frustration has grown during the last decades. The research has among other findings been promoted by the discovery of spin ice which is a frustrated magnetic compound with an exotic ground state and unusual excitations. READ MORE

  4. 4. X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy on Nano-Magnet Arrays and Thin Films : Magnetism and Structure

    Author : Andreas Persson; Dimitri Arvanitis; Cormac McGuinness; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; self organization; nano-magnet; xmcd; exafs; peem; magnetism; Surfaces and interfaces; Ytor och mellanytor; Magnetism; Magnetism; Materiefysik; Physics of Matter;

    Abstract : The magnetic and structural properties of nano magnet arrays and ferromagnetic thin films are investigated. Circular x-rays are used and extensive use is made in this Thesis of the X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) technique. By means of the XMCD magneto-optic sum rules the values of the orbital and spin moments are determined. READ MORE

  5. 5. Configurational and Magnetic Interactions in Multicomponent Systems

    Author : Björn Alling; Igor A. Abrikosov; Lars Hultman; Stefan Blügel; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetic interactions; Configurational thermodynamics; Curie temperature; theoretical physics; magnetism; TiAlN; TiN; AlN; CrN; TiCrN; nitrides; NiMnSb; NiCuMnSb; Heusler alloys; spintronics; half-metallic; spinodal decomposition; first-principles; ab-initio; Magnetism; Magnetism;

    Abstract : This thesis is a theoretical study of configurational and magnetic interactions in multicomponent solids. These interactions are the projections onto the configurational and magnetic degrees of freedom of the underlying electronic quantum mechanical system, and can be used to model, explain and predict the properties of materials.
