    Title: Local structure of hexagonal ferrites studied by NMR Author: Karel Kouřil Department/Institute: Department of Low Temperature Physics Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: prof. RNDr. Helena Štěpánková, CSc. Abstract: Hexagonal ferrites of M, W, X and Y structure types were studied by means of NMR, electronic structure calculations and magnetoelectric experi- ments. Presented results deal with cation distribution, localization of ferrous ions, interpretation of NMR spectra of studied materials and effects of size reduction. In oriented layers M type strontium ferrite and submicron particles of M type barium ferrite pronounced effects of reduced size were observed on 57 Fe NMR spectra. Performance of magnetoelectric barium-strontium Y type hexaferrites with divalent zinc cations improved upon thermal treatment of samples while distribution of zinc was not significantly altered. In Sc sub- stituted BaM, Sc content was found to be uniform throughout TSSG grown crystal. In LaSrM systems electron localization in 2a sublattice was observed, co-substitution with La+Zn, La+Co and La+Cu was found to lead to partial charge compensation. In strontium ferrites of type W and X localization of ferrous ions in octahedral sites in SS block pair was observed.

    Scalable dissolution-dynamic nuclear polarization with rapid transfer of a polarized solid

    Get PDF
    In dissolution-dynamic nuclear polarization, nuclear spins are hyperpolarized at cryogenic temperatures using radicals and microwave irradiation. The hyperpolarized solid is dissolved with hot solvent and the solution is transferred to a secondary magnet where strongly enhanced magnetic resonance signals are observed. Here we present a method for transferring the hyperpolarized solid. A bullet containing the frozen, hyperpolarized sample is ejected using pressurized helium gas, and shot into a receiving structure in the secondary magnet, where the bullet is retained and the polarized solid is dissolved rapidly. The transfer takes approximately 70 ms. A solenoid, wound along the entire transfer path ensures adiabatic transfer and limits radical-induced low-field relaxation. The method is fast and scalable towards small volumes suitable for high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy while maintaining high concentrations of the target molecule. Polarization levels of approximately 30% have been observed for 1-13C-labelled pyruvic acid in solution

    PRODUCTION OF PROTOTYPE PARTS USING DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING TECHNOLOGY

    Get PDF
    Unconventional methods of modern materials preparation include additive technologies which involve the sintering of powders of different chemical composition, granularity, physical, chemical and other utility properties. The technology called Rapid Prototyping, which uses different technological principles of producing components, belongs to this type of material preparation. The Rapid Prototyping technology facilities use photopolymers, thermoplastics, specially treated paper or metal powders. The advantage is the direct production of metal parts from input data and the fact that there is no need for the production of special tools (moulds, press tools, etc.). Unused powder from sintering technologies is re-used for production 98% of the time, which means that the process is economical, as well as ecological.The present paper discusses the technology of Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), which falls into the group of additive technologies of Rapid Prototyping (RP). The major objective is a detailed description of DMLS, pointing out the benefits it offers and its application in practice. The practical part describes the production and provides an economic comparison of several prototype parts that were designed for testing in the automotive industry

    Radical-induced hetero-nuclear mixing and low-field 13^{13}C relaxation in solid pyruvic acid

    Radicals serve as a source of polarization in dynamic nuclear polarization, but may also act as polarization sink, in particular at low field. Additionally, if the couplings between the electron spins and different nuclear reservoirs are stronger than any of the reservoirs’ couplings to the lattice, radicals can mediate hetero-nuclear polarization transfer. Here, we report radical-enhanced 13^{13}C relaxation in pyruvic acid doped with trityl. Up to 40 K, we find a linear carbon T1T_{1} field dependence between 5 mT and 2 T. We model the dependence quantitatively, and find that the presence of trityl accelerates direct hetero-nuclear polarization transfer at low fields, while at higher fields 13^{13}C relaxation is diffusion limited. Measurements of hetero-nuclear polarization transfer up to 600 mT confirm the predicted radical-mediated proton–carbon mixing

    Biphasic NMR of Hyperpolarized Suspensions─Real-Time Monitoring of Solute-to-Solid Conversion to Watch Materials Grow

    Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a key method for the determination of molecular structures. Due to its intrinsically high (i.e., atomistic) resolution and versatility, it has found numerous applications for investigating gases, liquids, and solids. However, liquid-state NMR has found little application for suspensions of solid particles as the resonances of such systems are excessively broadened, typically beyond the detection threshold. Herein, we propose a route to overcoming this critical limitation by enhancing the signals of particle suspensions by >3.000-fold using dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (d-DNP) coupled with rapid solid precipitation. For the proof-of-concept series of experiments, we employed calcium phosphate (CaP) as a model system. By d-DNP, we boosted the signals of phosphate 31^{31}P spins before rapid CaP precipitation inside the NMR spectrometer, leading to the inclusion of the hyperpolarized phosphate into CaP-nucleated solid particles within milliseconds. With our approach, within only 1 s of acquisition time, we obtained spectra of biphasic systems, i.e., micrometer-sized dilute solid CaP particles coexisting with their solution-state precursors. Thus, this work is a step toward real-time characterization of the solid–solution equilibrium. Finally, integrating the hyperpolarized data with molecular dynamics simulations and electron microscopy enabled us to shed light on the CaP formation mechanism in atomistic detail

    Activated sintering of Cr2O3-based composites by hot pressing

    The paper presents and discusses questions on structure formation during the sintering process of Cr2O3-based composites using the hot pressing method, when a chemical reaction between the components takes place. The task was difficult because Cr2O3 decomposes when sintered at temperatures above 1300 degrees C. The proposed novel method allowed for interaction between aluminum and chromia, thus avoiding the decomposition of the latter. Here, ultrafine aluminum powder played the role of the active agent forming a liquid phase and reacting with Cr2O3. The appearance of the solid solutions of (Cr,Al)(2)O-3 with different stoichiometry of Cr and Al depended on the aluminum content in the initial mixture. The solid solution significantly strengthened boundaries between composite phases, resulting in the composite material of high fracture toughness between 5 and 7 MPa m(1/2) and bending strength of ca. 500 MPa. The best mechanical properties exhibited the cermet with 22 wt.% of the restored chromium.Web of Science1517art. no. 596

    Radical-Induced Low-Field 1H Relaxation in Solid Pyruvic Acid Doped with Trityl-OX063

    Get PDF
    In dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), radicals such as trityl provide a source for high nuclear spin polarization. Conversely, during the low-field transfer of hyperpolarized solids, the radicals’ dipolar or Non-Zeeman reservoir may act as a powerful nuclear polarization sink. Here, we report the low-temperature proton spin relaxation in pyruvic acid doped with trityl, for fields from 5 mT to 2 T. We estimate the heat capacity of the radical Non-Zeeman reservoir experimentally and show that a recent formalism by Wenckebach yields a parameter-free, yet quantitative model for the entire field range

    The dipolar endofullerene HF@C60

    The cavity inside fullerenes provides a unique environment for the study of isolated atoms and molecules. We report encapsulation of hydrogen fluoride inside C60 using molecular surgery to give the endohedral fullerene HF@C60. The key synthetic step is the closure of the open fullerene cage while minimizing escape of HF. The encapsulated HF molecule moves freely inside the cage and exhibits quantization of its translational and rotational degrees of freedom, as revealed by inelastic neutron scattering and infrared spectroscopy. The rotational and vibrational constants of the encapsulated HF molecules were found to be redshifted relative to free HF. The NMR spectra display a large 1H-19F J coupling typical of an isolated species. The dipole moment of HF@C60 was estimated from the temperature-dependence of the dielectric constant at cryogenic temperatures and showed that the cage shields around 75% of the HF dipole
