    Stretched exponential behavior in remanent lattice striction of a (La,Pr)1.2_{1.2}Sr1.8_{1.8}Mn2_{2}O7_{7} bilayer manganite single crystal

    We have investigated the time dependence of remanent magnetostriction in a (La,Pr)1.2_{1.2}Sr1.8_{1.8}Mn2_{2}O7_{7} single crystal, in order to examine the slow dynamics of lattice distortion in bilayered manganites. A competition between double exchange and Jahn-Teller type orbital-lattice interactions results in the observed lattice profile following a stretched exponential function. This finding suggests that spatial growth of the local lattice distortions coupled with eg_{g}-electron orbital strongly correlates with the appearance of the field-induced CMR effect.Comment: 3 figure

    Resistive relaxation in field-induced insulator-metal transition of a (La0.4_{0.4}Pr0.6_{0.6})1.2_{1.2}Sr1.8_{1.8}Mn2_{2}O7_{7} bilayer manganite single crystal

    We have investigated the resistive relaxation of a (La0.4_{0.4}Pr0.6_{0.6})1.2_{1.2}Sr1.8_{1.8}Mn2_{2}O7_{7} single crystal, in order to examine the slow dynamics of the field-induced insulator to metal transition of bilayered manganites. The temporal profiles observed in remanent resistance follow a stretched exponential function accompanied by a slow relaxation similar to that obtained in magnetization and magnetostriction data. We demonstrate that the remanent relaxation in magnetotransport has a close relationship with magnetic relaxation that can be understood in the framework of an effective medium approximation by assuming that the first order parameter is proportional to the second order one.Comment: 6 pages,5 figure

    Evidence for Carrier-Induced High-Tc Ferromagnetism in Mn-doped GaN film

    Get PDF
    A GaN film doped with 8.2 % Mn was grown by the molecular-beam-epitaxy technique. Magnetization measurements show that this highly Mn-doped GaN film exhibits ferromagnetism above room temperature. It is also revealed that the high-temperature ferromagnetic state is significantly suppressed below 10 K, accompanied by an increase of the electrical resistivity with decreasing temperature. This observation clearly demonstrates a close relation between the ferromagnetism with extremely high-Tc and the carrier transport in the Mn-doped GaN film.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figure

    The decomposition of level-1 irreducible highest weight modules with respect to the level-0 actions of the quantum affine algebra Uq(sl^n)U'_q(\hat{sl}_n)

    Full text link
    We decompose the level-1 irreducible highest weight modules of the quantum affine algebra Uq(sl^n)U_q(\hat{sl}_n) with respect to the level-0 Uq(sl^n)U'_q (\hat{sl}_n)--action defined in q-alg/9702024. The decomposition is parameterized by the skew Young diagrams of the border strip type.Comment: 22 pages, AMSLaTe

    On irreducibility of tensor products of evaluation modules for the quantum affine algebra

    Full text link
    Every irreducible finite-dimensional representation of the quantized enveloping algebra U_q(gl_n) can be extended to the corresponding quantum affine algebra via the evaluation homomorphism. We give in explicit form the necessary and sufficient conditions for irreducibility of tensor products of such evaluation modules.Comment: 22 pages. Some references are adde

    Taming C60 fullerene: Tuning intramolecular photoinduced electron transfer process with subphthalocyanines

    Full text link
    Two subphthalocyanine-C60 conjugates have been prepared by means of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of (perfluoro) or hexa(pentylsulfonyl) electron deficient subphthalocyanines to C60. Comprehensive assays regarding the electronic features-in the ground and excited state-of the resulting conjugates revealed energy and electron transfer processes upon photoexcitation. Most important is the unambiguous evidence-in terms of time-resolved spectroscopy-of an ultrafast oxidative electron transfer evolving from C60 to the photoexcited subphthalocyanines. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of an intramolecular oxidation of C60 within electron donor-acceptor conjugates by means of only photoexcitationFinancial support from the MICINN and MEC, Spain (CTQ- 2011-24187/BQU and PRI-PIBUS-2011-1128) is acknowledged.
