2. 1. On the Properties of Some Strongly Correlated Systems - Analytical and Numerical Studies

   Author : Jurij Smakov; KTH; []
   Keywords : mean field theory; magnetic multilayers; Curie temperature; compensation temperature; scanning tunneling microscopy; tunneling; superconductivity; local density of states; Josephson effect; tunneling Hamiltonian formalism; impurities in superconducto;

   Abstract : This thesis is dedicated to analytical and numerical studiesof a few models of strongly correlated systems and thedevelopment of techniques for such studies. The common name"strongly correlated" refers to systems in which theinteractions (correlations) between the constituent particleslead to nontrivial properties, such as various types ofmagnetism, superconductivity, and exotic phases.

4. 2. Aspects of microstructural evolution in chromium steels in high temperature applications

   Author : Åsa Gustafson; KTH; []
   Keywords : Cr-steels; nucleation; coarsening; model; DICTRA; precipitates; carbides; carbo-nitrides; MX; VN; M23C6; TiC; TEM; EFTEM; Curie-temperature;

   Abstract : In this thesis 9-12 % Cr steels, used for high-temperaturecomponents in fossil-fired power plants are considered. Thecreep strength of thees steels depend on their microstructurethat consists of a matrix of tempered lath martensite withdensely distributed precipitates. READ MORE

5. 3. Alkali Metal Aurivillius Phases Structure and Electrical Properties

   Author : Stefan Borg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neutron powder diffraction; phase transition; X-ray powder diffraction; Aurivillius phases; impedance spectroscopy; Curie temperature; electron microscopy;

   Abstract : The quest for new materials is crucial for the development of smaller and more efficient electronic components. Aurivillius phases have recently received considerable attention due to their wide-ranging properties and are considered promising candidates in e.g. memory devices, microwave filters and fuel cells.

6. 4. 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.

7. 5. Tailored Properties of Ferromagnetic Thin Films

   Author : Peter Warnicke; Peter Svedlindh; Peter Grünberg; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; micromagnetics; domain wall; vortex; pinning potential; nanowire; spin dynamics; spin transfer torque; magnetic anisotropy; MFM; Permalloy; PMA; magnetic multilayer; Curie temperature; DMS; GaMnAs; magnetic bioseparation; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

   Abstract : Magnetic thin films and patterned nanostructures have been studied with respect to their magnetic properties using SQUID-magnetometry, magnetic force microscopy, electrical measurements, and micromagnetic calculations. Properties of vortex domain walls, trapped in Permalloy nanowires with artificial constrictions, were investigated experimentally and by numerical calculations. READ MORE
