FeSiB amorphous thin films with thicknesses from 25 to 600 nm have been produced by rf sputtering on Si(3)N(4) substrates. A spin reorientation transition has been observed on the as-prepared samples, as a function of thickness and temperature. Spin reorientation transition is shown to depend on the thermal treatments to which the as-prepared samples have been submitted. Static hysteresis loops obtained as a function of temperature, and magnetic force microscopy images taken at room temperature at the remanence and as a function of an applied magnetic field, have been employed to study the magnetic domain configuration of all the samples, and to see how it is affected by sample thickness, measurement temperature and annealing conditions.

Disordered to ordered phase transformation: Correlation between microstructure and magnetic properties in Fe-Pd thin films

S. Bahamida, A. Fnidiki, M. Coisson, E. S. Olivetti, G. Barrera, F. Celegato, P. Tiberto, M. Boudissa

Summary: The kinetics of the transformation from the disordered to the ordered phase in Fe56Pd44 thin films were studied. It was found that the transformation reached completion after 20 minutes of annealing time, with the grain size growing exponentially. The resulting film had a high density of defects, which were linearly related to the average order parameter of the alloy. The evolution of the transformed phase followed Avrami's law with an exponent of 0.4, indicating nucleation-controlled transformation without grain growth.

Electrochemical Synthesis, Magnetic and Optical Characterisation of FePd Dense and Mesoporous Nanowires

Deepti Raj, Gabriele Barrera, Federico Scaglione, Federica Celegato, Matteo Cialone, Marco Coisson, Paola Tiberto, Jordi Sort, Paola Rizzi, Eva Pellicer

Summary: Dense and mesoporous FePd nanowires were successfully fabricated using template- and micelle-assisted pulsed potentiostatic electrodeposition. The structural and magnetic properties of the nanowires were investigated, and it was found that the mesoporous core and dense shell structure slightly affected the magnetic properties. Moreover, the mesoporous nanowires showed excellent performance as SERS substrates for the detection of 4,4'-bipyridine, attributed to the mesoporous morphology and the close proximity of the embedded nanowires enabling localized surface plasmon resonance.

Summary: Liquid Crystalline Networks (LCNs) with different surface topographies obtained by self-assembly can efficiently control cell alignment and differentiation, providing biological models that cannot be reproduced spontaneously on standard culture dishes. These materials can guide the organization of different cell lines, including single cell alignment or high-density cell cultures. The rough surfaces formed by the spontaneous assembly of liquid crystals can control biological models without the need for lithographic patterning or complex fabrication procedures, opening up possibilities for in vitro formation of well-aligned muscle tissue.

Oleg I. Utesov

Summary: The elementary excitations spectrum of anisotropic frustrated antiferromagnets in the fan phase is discussed. It is found that the low-energy part of the spectrum consists of a gapless phason branch with linear dispersion and a gapped optical branch corresponding to the fan structure amplitude oscillations. In the high-energy part of the spectrum, the excitations are similar to the magnons of the fully polarized phase.

Vapor bubbles departure frequency at ferrofluid boiling on a single nucleation site in a uniform horizontal magnetic field

Alexander Ya. Simonovskii, Alexander A. Yanovskii, Arthur R. Zakinyan

Summary: In this study, the departure frequency of vapor bubbles during boiling of ferrofluid in a horizontal magnetic field is experimentally investigated. Two methods, visual and inductive, are used to measure the frequency of bubble departure. The results show that the bubble departure frequency can decrease with increasing magnetic field strength and increase with increasing temperature of the heat-emitting surface. A linear stability analysis is conducted to analyze the influence of the magnetic field on the frequency of bubble formation during ferrofluid boiling.

Thermodynamic, entanglement and spin Hall conductivity on kagome-honeycomb lattice system

Leonardo S. Lima

Summary: This study investigates the thermodynamic quantities, such as entropy, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility, in the next-nearest-neighbors Heisenberg model on a honeycomb-kagome lattice. The linear spin-wave approach is applied to obtain the temperature-dependent behavior of these quantities. Additionally, the entanglement negativity, a quantifier of quantum entanglement, and the spin Hall conductivity are also studied. The results show that all the thermodynamic quantities, as well as the entanglement negativity and spin Hall conductivity, exhibit an increasing trend with temperature. Furthermore, it is found that all the analyzed quantities approach zero in the low-temperature limit, consistent with experimental observations.
