We propose a ferromagnetic spintronic system, which consists of two serial connected resonant-tunneling diodes. One diode is nonmagnetic whereas the other comprises a ferromagnetic emitter and quantum well. Using a self-consistent coherent transport model we show that the current-voltage characteristic of the ferromagnetic diode can be strongly modulated by changing the relative orientation of ...

We present a new scenario for the breakdown of ferromagnetic order in a two-dimensional quantum magnet with competing ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic interactions. In this, dynamical effects lead to the formation of two-magnon bound states, which undergo Bose-Einstein condensation, giving rise to bond-centered nematic order. This scenario is explored in some detail for an extended Heisenber...

High Curie temperature ferromagnetism has been realized in atomically thin MoS2 and WS2 nanosheets. The ultrathin nanosheet samples were prepared via a novel, simple and efficient chemical vapor deposition method; different kinds of transition metal disulfides (MoS2 and WS2) could be obtained by sulphuring the corresponding cation sources (MoO3 and WCl6). Through related morphological and struc...

In a coupled ferroelectric-ferromagnetic system, i.e., a composite multiferroic, the propagation of magnetic or ferroelectric excitations across the whole structure is a key issue for applications. Of special interest is the dynamics of localized magnetic or ferroelectric modes (LM) across the ferroelectric-ferromagnetic interface, particularly when the LM's carrier frequency is in the band of ...

We report the coexistence of ferromagnetic order and superconductivity in UCoGe at ambient pressure. Magnetization measurements show that UCoGe is a weak ferromagnet with a Curie temperature T(C)=3 K and a small ordered moment m(0)=0.03 micro(B). Superconductivity is observed with a resistive transition temperature T(s)=0.8 K for the best sample. Thermal-expansion and specific-heat measurements...

Electrospun polymer fibers were prepared containing mixtures of different proportions of ferromagnetic and superparamagnetic nanoparticles. The magnetic properties of these fibers were then explored using a superconducting quantum interference device. Mixed superparamagnetic/ferromagnetic fibers were examined for mesoscale magnetic exchange coupling, which was not observed as theoretically pred...

The relative volume of spin states in the phase space is introduced for the ±J model of spin glasses. Analysis of its temperature dependence shows that the Nishimori line separates the pure ferromagnetic-like region in the high-temperature side of the ferromagnetic phase from the randomness-dominated region in the low-temperature side. The peak value of the relative volume of the perfect ferrom...

We conducted in vitro and in vivo experiments to study magnetic resonance imaging of intraocular foreign bodies. Diamagnetic and paramagnetic foreign bodies were imaged without artifact and without movement during the imaging process, while ferromagnetic foreign bodies produced large amounts of artifact that prevented meaningful images. All fetromagnetic foreign bodies moved during in vitro ima...
