Raman scattering, X-ray photoemission spectra and superconductivity of a tiny Ag diffusion to MgCNi3

The tiny Ag diffusion to MgCNi3 has been prepared by solid states reaction. Its structure was characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The results show that a small mount of Ag substitute for Ni sites, and much of Ag are in vacancy sites of the MgCNi3. We have further studied the surface properties of Ag-MgCNi3 using Raman scattering spectra, and X-ray photoemission spectra (XPS). Raman spectroscopy shows that the Ag-MgCNi3 has a special Raman peak around 842.1 cm-1 compared to that of C. The superconductor transition temperature (about 6.6 K) of Ag-MgCNi3 was lower than that of pure MgCNi3. It was interpreted properly by the conventional BCS phonon mechanism.

Optical and magnetic properties of Co-TiO2 sandwich Composite films grown by magnetron sputtering

The transition metal ions doped with TiO2 films are of magnetic properties at room temperatures and have stimulated many scientists to study other properties. The Co-TiO2 sandwich composite films have been recently grown on glass and silicon substrates by using alternately radio frequency reactive and direct current magnetron sputtering. The microstructural properties of these films were characterized with Raman spectra and X-ray photoemission spectra (XPS). It shows an anatase TiO2 containing Co nano-layer. Optical absorption spectra have red shift with Co nano-layer increasing, which originated from the quantum confinement and tunnel effects. Magnetic properties show that the saturation magnetization, remanent magnetic induction and coercivity are about 4.35 emu /g, 1.02 emu/g and 569.6 Oe respectively for 12 nm Co layer between the two TiO2 layers.

Superconducting properties and c-axis superstructure of Mg1-xAlxB2

The superconducting and structural properties of a series of Mg1-xAlxB2 samples have been investigated. X-ray diffraction results confirmed the existence of a structural transition associated with the significant change in inter-boron layer distance as reported previously by Slusky et al. Moreover,transmission-electron-microscopy observations revealed the existence of a superstructure with doubled lattice constant along the c-axis direction. We propose that this superstructure is essentially related to the structural transition. The modifications of superconducting transition temperature Tc, the normal state resistivity, and the upper critical field Bc2 by Al doping are discussed in terms of Al-substitution induced changes in the electronic structure at the Fermi energy.

X-ray photoemission study of polycrystalline Mg(1-x)Al(x)B(2)

Polycrystalline Mg(1-x)Al(x)B(2) (x = 0, 0.1, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 1) samples have been prepared by a conventional solid state reaction. The Mg 2p, Al 2p and B 1s core level binding energies have been studied using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS). It is found that Mg 2p, Al 2p and B 1s core level binding energies increase with the Al content in Mg(1-x)Al(x)B(2) when x = 0.5, and the maxima in the binding energies of Mg 2p and Al 2p are observed in sample Mg(0.5)Al(0.5)B(2). In contrast to the Mg 2p and Al 2p core levels, the B 1s binding energy shows a minimum when x = 0.5.

Preparation and Superconductivity of a MgB2 Superconducting Tape

A MgB2 superconducting tape has been successfully prepared by a new way of boron diffusion into Mg tape. This tape superconductor has a Tc of 39 K with a sharp transition width of 0.4 K, high bulk critical current density jc of 6.7*10^5 A/cm^2 in zero field at 6 K, higher irreversibility line comparing to that of a high pressure synthesized bulk sample and very small crystalline grain with size in the scale of 10-200 nm.

Structural features, stacking faults, and grain boundaries in MgB2 superconducting materials

The structural properties of MgB2 superconductors have been analyzed by means of convergent-beam electron diffraction, high-resolution transmission-electron microscopy, and theoretical simulations. The MgB2 crystal has been identified to have a hexagonal structure with the space group of P6/mmm. Microstructural features of MgB6 materials depend evidently upon the synthesis pressures. Stacking faults and grain boundaries in a sample with the critical current density greater than 105A/cm2 have been extensively investigated.

Superconductivity and Aluminum Ordering in Mg1-xAlxB2

Superconductivity and structural properties of Mg1-xAlxB2 materials have been systematically investigated. Evident modifications in both superconductivity and microstructure are identified to originate from the Al ordering along the c-axis direction. The resultant superstructure phase has an optimal composition of MgAlB4 with the superconducting transition at around 12K. Brief diagrams illustrating the superconductivity and structural features of Mg1-xAlxB2 materials along with the increase of Al concentration are presented.
