ABSTRACT Integrating coherent light sources at the nanoscale with spasers is one of the most promising applications of plasmonics. A spaser is a nano-plasmonic counterpart of a laser, with photons replaced by surface plasmon polaritons and the resonant cavity replaced by a nanoparticle supporting localized plasmonic modes. -

We confirm that the magnetic behavior is intrinsic property of Co-doped ZnO nanocrystalline films. Oxygen vacancies play an important mediation role in Co–Co ferromagnetic coupling. The thermal irreversibility of field-cooling and zero field-cooling magnetizations reveals the presence of superparamagnetic behavior in our films, while no evidence of metallic Co clusters was detected.

Local vs. Global Variables for Spin Glasses C. M. Newman∗ D. L. Stein† newman@ cims.nyu.edu dls @ physics.arizona.edu Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences Depts. of Physics and Mathematics New York University University of Arizona New York, NY 10012, USA Tucson, AZ 85721, USA Abstract We discuss a framework for understanding why spin glasses differ so remarkably from ho- mogeneous systems like ferromagnets, in the context of the sharply divergent low temperature behavior of short- and infinite-range versions of the same model. Our analysis is grounded in understanding the distinction between two broad classes of thermodynamic variables – those that describe the global features of a macroscopic system, and those that describe, or are sen- sitive to, its local features. In homogeneous systems both variables generally behave similarly, but this is not at all so in spin glasses. In much of the literature these two different classes of variables were commingled and confused. By analyzing their quite different behaviors in finite- and infinite-range spin glass models, we see the fundamental reason why the two sys- tems possess very different types of low-temperature phases. In so doing, we also reconcile apparent discrepancies between the infinite-volume limit and the behavior of large, finite vol- umes, and provide tools for understanding inhomogeneous systems in a wide array of contexts. We further propose a set of ‘global variables’ that are definable and sensible for both short- range and infinite-range spin glasses, and allow a meaningful basis for comparison of their arXiv:cond-mat/0503344 v1 15 Mar 2005 low-temperature properties. -
Label-Free Detection and Manipulation of Single Biological Nanoparticles
Article type: Advanced Review Article title: Label-free detection and manipulation of single biological nanoparticles Authors: Full name and affiliation; email address if corresponding author; any conflicts of interest First author Michael C. DeSantis Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA Second author Wei Cheng Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences, College of Pharmacy, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA Department of Biophysics, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA [email protected] Third author [Type information here] Abstract In the past several years, there have been significant advances in the field of nanoparticle detection for various biological applications. Of considerable interest are synthetic nanoparticles being designed as potential drug delivery systems as well as naturally occurring or biological nanoparticles, including viruses and extracellular vesicles. Many infectious diseases and several human cancers are attributed to individual virions. Because these particles likely display different degrees of heterogeneity under normal physiological conditions, characterization of these natural nanoparticles with single-particle sensitivity is necessary for elucidating information on their basic structure and function as well as revealing novel targets for therapeutic intervention. Additionally, biodefense and point-of-care clinical testing demand ultrasensitive detection of viral pathogens particularly with high specificity. Consequently, the ability to perform label-free virus sensing has motivated the This is the author manuscript accepted for publication and has undergone full peer review but has not been through the copyediting, typesetting, pagination and proofreading process, which may lead to differences between this version and the Version of Record.

Arxiv:1902.01645V1 [Cond-Mat.Mtrl-Sci] 5 Feb 2019 Magnetic Phases of Fe-Cr Alloys Are Fairly Complex
The Dynamics of Magnetism in Fe-Cr Alloys with Cr Clustering Jacob B. J. Chapman,∗ Pui-Wai Ma, and S. L. Dudarev UK Atomic Energy Authority, Culham Science Centre, Oxfordshire, OX14 3DB, United Kingdom The dynamics of magnetic moments in iron-chromium alloys with different levels of Cr clustering show unusual features resulting from the fact that even in a perfect body-centred cubic structure, magnetic moments experience geometric magnetic frustration resembling that of a spin glass. Due to the long range exchange coupling and configuration randomness, magnetic moments of Cr solutes remain non-collinear at all temperatures. To characterise magnetic properties of Fe-Cr alloys, we explore the temperature dependence of magnetisation, susceptibility, Curie temperature and spin- spin correlations with spatial resolution. The static and dynamic magnetic properties are correlated with the microstructure of Fe-Cr, where magnetisation and susceptibility are determined by the size of Cr precipitates at nominal Cr concentrations. The Curie temperature is always maximised when the solute concentration of Cr in the α phase is close to 5 to 6 at.%, and the susceptibility of Fe atoms is always enhanced at the boundary between a precipitate and solid solution. Interaction between Cr and Fe stimulates magnetic disorder, lowering the effective Curie temperature. Dynamic simulation of evolution of magnetic correlations shows that the spin-spin relaxation time in Fe-Cr alloys is in the 20 to 40 ps range. I. INTRODUCTION and 84 at.% Cr, Fe magnetic moments prevent long range AFM-like correlations, causing the moments to freeze 15 Iron and chromium are the main components of steels. -

Low-Field-Enhanced Unusual Hysteresis Produced By

Instead of alleged superparamagnetic behavior, a pressure-induced magnetization process was found at zero magnetic field, showing gradual enhancement in a low-field regime up to H 5 kOe. The simultaneous application of pressure and magnetic field reconfigures the MnP clusters with antiferromagnetic alignment, followed by onset of a field-induced metamagnetic transition. An unusual hysteresis in magnetization after pressure cycling is observed, which is also enhanced by application of the magnetic field, and indicates reversible metamagnetism of MnP clusters. We relate these effects to the major contribution of structural changes in the composite, where limited volume reduction by 1.8% is observed at P ∼ 5.2 GPa.
