Magnetoresistance in actinide and lanthanide intermetallics
Magnetoresistance studies in narrow 5f band materials show that a giant drop of electrical resistance accompanies frequently field-induced reorientation of uranium magnetic moments in antiferromagnets. We show that a strong spin-dependent scattering, originating in the strong 5f hybridization with conduction electron states, is the most plausible origin of this effect, the magnitude of which by...
متن کاملMagnetic properties of Gd intermetallics
Using first-principles calculations, based on disordered local moment theory, combined with the selfinteraction corrected local spin density approximation, we study magnetic interactions in GdX intermetallics for X = Cu, Zn, Ga, Cd, and Mg. Our predicted magnetic orders and ordering temperatures both at zero and other pressures agree well with experiments including the large increase in the Cur...
متن کاملLattice disorder in strongly correlated lanthanide and actinide intermetallics.
Lanthanide and actinide intermetallic compounds display a wide range of correlated-electron behavior, including ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, nonmagnetic (Kondo) ground states, and so-called 'non-Fermi liquid' (NFL) behavior. The interaction between f electrons and the conduction band is a dominant factor in determining the ground state of a given system. However, lattice disorder can cre...
متن کاملThermoelectric Properties of In0.3Ga0.7N Alloys
We report on the experimental investigation of the potential of InGaN alloys as thermoelectric (TE) materials. We have grown undoped and Si-doped In0.3Ga0.7N alloys by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition and measured the Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity of the grown films with the aim of maximizing the power factor (P). It was found that P decreases as electron concentration (...
متن کاملThermoelectric properties of SnSe2 monolayer.
The 2H (MoS2-type) phase of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) has been extensively studied and exhibits excellent electronic and optoelectronic properties, but the high phonon thermal conductivity is detrimental to the thermoelectric performances. Here, we use first-principles methods combined with Boltzmann transport theory to calculate the electronic and phononic transport propertie...
