|
 | We have developed a technique to orient particles of Y-type hexaferrite in which the c-axis of the particles are oriented perpendicular to a plane As such, that plane becomes necessarily the easy plane of magnetization. For microwave device application the easy plane of magnetization is chosen as the plane to deposit a metallic microstrip and related circuit patterns. The technique entails the rotation of an external magnetic field in the ... |

 | CoFe2O4/alpha-Fe2O3 (ferrimagnetic/antiferromagnetism) bilayered films were prepared on alpha-Al2O3(102) single-crystalline substrates by helicon plasma sputtering. A well-crystallized epitaxial alpha-Fe2O3(102) layer was formed on the substrate, while CoFe2O4 grown on alpha-Fe2O3(102) was a polycrystalline layer with a (100)-preferred orientation. The alpha-Fe2O3(102) films without CoFe2O4 layers clearly showed a spin-flip transition at about 400 K. The spins aligned perpendicular to the film plane at room temperature changed their direction within the film plane ... |

|
 | Ca-substituted YIG single crystal films (Ca:YIG) show p-type conduction while Si or Ge doped YIG garnets (Si:YIG or Ge:YIG) have n-type conduction. Both garnet films maintain their superior magnetic properties of pure YIG, while their electrical resistance approaches that of a semiconductor. Bilayers of Si/Ca doped YIG film were grown as a p/n junction and found to have significant p/n junction diode behavior. However, a voltage of 60 to 80 ... |

|
 | Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) is a ferrimagnetic oxide, Y3Fe5O12 and a good insulator. When five to ten percent of the Y(3+) is replaced by Ca(2+), an uncompensated state exists. The resulting material has perturbed magnetic properties, semiconducting electrical properties with activation energies from 0.2 to 0.4 eV and resistivities as low as 300 ohms cm at room temperature, and modified optical properties. In the past year the conductivity studies have ... |

 | A non-magnetic alloy of a volume Vcu of copper and a volume Vmn of manganese Vmn/Vcu is made equal to - Xcu/Xmn where Xcu is the susceptibility of the copper and Xmn is the susceptibility of the manganese. Vmn/Vcu is experimentally predicted to be 1.04 percent by volume. The present invention relates to a non-magnetic alloy and method for making the non-magnetic alloy. Most materials are magnetic to some ... |

|
 | One of the major issues revolving around high temperature superconducting (HTS) microwave technology is that, while researchers have applied it to components of various systems, far fewer integrated systems have been designed; such integrated designs are essential for HTS technology to be successfully implemented for practical applications. A variety of HTS microwave components (such as filters and delay lines) have been demonstrated that perform better, weigh less, and occupy less ... |

|
 | A microprocessor-controlled magnetometer which accurately locates and identifies compact ferrous objects in real-time is described. The person- portable instrument consists of a cart-mounted cesium magnetometer, optical encoder, microcontroller, interface and laptop computer. The instrument guides the operator to collect simultaneous magnetic field and position data in a horizontal plane above an object. Custom algorithms estimate location and dipole moment and use the latter to classify the object. Data collection takes ... |

|
 | The objective of this research was to investigate electromagnetic interactions among components within microstrip-based circuits fabricated adjacent to the layered surround characteristic of a high-speed MMIC environment. EM fields maintained by currents immersed in layered dielectric/ferrimagnetic media are exploited to study the complete propagation-mode spectrum of microstrip lines and their interactions with the coupled microstrip devices which they interconnect. Topics studied include: (1) electromagnetics of layered dielectric/ferrimagnetic media; (2) mathematical ... |

 | We here present the analysis and computer program for obtaining the dispersion relation, group delay, magnetostatic wave power, radiation resistance, radiation reactance and insertion loss for forward volume waves and backward volume waves. Included are the consideration of ground planes, apodization of the fundamental mode, multistrip meander line and parallel grating and isolated independent conductors for a uniform current distribution without variable coupling.

 | Millimeter wave circulators are disclosed for use with millimeter wavelength dielectric waveguides. The structure comprises a prism of magnetized ferrimagnetic material with the waveguide ends bonded to the lateral faces of the prism. The waveguide ends and the lateral faces are congruent rectangles. The prisms may have triangular bases in which case a Y-junction circulator results, or square bases with waveguide ends attached to three out of four of the ... |

|
 | A ferrimagnetic sphere that is biased to the subsidiary resonance mode and placed within a microwave slotted resonant structure functions as a frequency selective microwave power limiter. When the power level of a signal at the input port exceeds a threshold level, the device prevents the power level at the output port from increasing further. A weak signal present simultaneously passes with relatively little attenuation if it is slightly offset ... |

| Local Site Distortion Model of Magnetostriction. |

|
 | A new model is proposed to explain the magnetostriction effects in ferrimagnetic spinels and garnets with Mn(3+), co(2+), and Fe(2+) ions substituted into octahedral sites. Considerable experimental evidence has revealed that small amounts of each of these ions will alter substantially the magnitude of either the lambda 100 or lambda 111 magnetostriction constant, depending on the particular ion. The theory is based on the concept that Jahn-Teller effects produce local ... |

|
 | The red, crystalline mixed-valence compound pentafluorodiiron(II,III)dihydrate, Fe2F5.2H2O, has been examined using Mossbauer spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibilities. At 48K the material orders ferrimagnetically as the result of spin compensation of iron (III) by iron(II). Above this critical temperature, the observation of distinct quadrupole-split Mossbauer absorptions for iron(II) and iron(III) sites demonstrates the non-equivalence of oxidation states and established Fe2F5.2H2O as a Class II mixed-valence compound. In the temperature range 49=300 K, ... |

|
 | The field-induced transitions in a DySb crystal have been studied by neutron diffraction and magnetization measurements in fields up to approx. 60 kOe applied parallel to each of the principal axes. In the case, the transition from the A to an intermediate ferrimagnetic (Q) state is first-order at 4.2 K (critical field H(c) approx. equal 21 kOe) but is continuous from approx. 6 K up to T(N), as H(c) approaches ... |
