A key to room-temperature ferromagnetism in Fe-doped ZnO: Cu
Successful synthesis of room-temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors,
ZnFeO, is reported. The essential ingredient in achieving
room-temperature ferromagnetism in bulk ZnFeO was found to be
additional Cu doping. A transition temperature as high as 550 K was obtained in
ZnFeCuO; the saturation magnetization at room
temperature reached a value of per Fe. Large
magnetoresistance was also observed below K.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures; to appear in Appl. Phys. Let
Production of metals and compounds by radiation chemistry
Preparation of metals and compounds by radiation induced chemical reactions involves irradiation of metal salt solutions with high energy electrons. This technique offers a method for the preparation of high purity metals with minimum contamination from the container material or the cover gas
Radiation-induced nickel deposits
Low cost, photographic process uses surface coating of nickel hypophosphite sensitive to X-rays and electron radiation. Exposed coated surface can be amplified to produce permanent visible image of wide tonal gradation in grays. Coating may be sodium, ammonium, or lithium hypophosphite or sodium phosphite, with nickel supplied in developer
Euler characteristic and quadrilaterals of normal surfaces
Let be a compact 3-manifold with a triangulation . We give an
inequality relating the Euler characteristic of a surface normally embedded
in with the number of normal quadrilaterals in . This gives a relation
between a topological invariant of the surface and a quantity derived from its
combinatorial description. Secondly, we obtain an inequality relating the
number of normal triangles and normal quadrilaterals of , that depends on
the maximum number of tetrahedrons that share a vertex in .Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur
