Hole doping in compositionally complex correlated oxide enables tunable exchange biasing

Magnetic interfaces and the phenomena arising from them drive both the design of modern spintronics and fundamental research. Recently, it was revealed that through designing magnetic frustration in configurationally complex entropy stabilized oxides, exchange bias can occur in structurally single crystal films. This eliminates the need for complex heterostructures and nanocomposites in the design and control of magnetic response phenomena. In this work, we demonstrate through hole doping of a high entropy perovskite oxide that tuning of magnetic responses can be achieved. With detailed magnetometry, we show magnetic coupling exhibiting a variety of magnetic responses including exchange bias and antiferromagnetic spin reversal in the entropy stabilized ABO 3 perovskite oxide La 1-x Sr x (Cr 0.2 Mn 0.2 Fe 0.2 Co 0.2 Ni 0.2 )O 3 family. We find that manipulation of the A-site charge state can be used to balance magnetic phase compositions and coupling responses. This allows for the creation of highly tunable exchange bias responses. In the low Sr doping regime, a spin frustrated region arising at the antiferromagnetic phase boundary is shown to directly couple to the antiferromagnetic moments of the film and emerges as the dominant mechanism, leading to a vertical shift of magnetization loops in response to field biasing. At higher concentrations, direct coupling of antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic regions is observed. This tunability of magnetic coupling is discussed within the context of these three competing magnetic phases, revealing critical features in designing exchange bias through exploiting spin frustration and disorder in high entropy oxides.

Effects of annealing temperature on the magnetic properties of highly crystalline biphase iron oxide nanorods

We report on the effects of annealing temperatures ranging from 225 °C to 325 °C on the magnetic properties of high aspect ratio iron oxide nanorods consisting of a ferrimagnetic Fe 3 O 4 phase and an antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase in an as-prepared state. Annealing at the aforementioned temperatures under a constant flow of O 2 for 3 h leads to an increment of the volume fraction of the antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase and concomitant enhancement of the crystallinity of the ferrimagnetic Fe 3 O 4 phase. These opposing effects compete with each other, resulting in a decrease in global magnetization with increasing the annealing temperature. The desirable magnetic properties are achieved for the sample annealed at 250 °C. For all samples investigated, we observed an increase in low field magnetization at low temperatures after the sample is field cooled in the presence of a 1T magnetic field, which we attribute to the ordering of macro-spins of the weakly ordered antiferromagnetic α-Fe 2 O 3 phase in the presence of the cooling field. Our study will pave the way for determining the optimal conditions to enhance the magnetic characteristics in iron oxide nanorods, which will enable its use in spintronics and biomedical applications.

Emergent magnetism and exchange bias effect in iron oxide nanocubes with tunable phase and size

Abstract We report a systematic investigation of the magnetic properties including the exchange bias (EB) effect in an iron oxide nanocube system with tunable phase and average size (10, 15, 24, 34, and 43 nm). X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy reveal the presence of Fe 3 O 4 , FeO, and α -Fe 2 O 3 phases in the nanocubes, in which the volume fraction of each phase varies depending upon particle size. While the Fe 3 O 4 phase is dominant in all and tends to grow with increasing particle size, the FeO phase appears to coexist with the Fe 3 O 4 phase in 10, 15, and 24 nm nanocubes but disappears in 34 and 43 nm nanocubes. The nanocubes exposed to air resulted in an α -Fe 2 O 3 oxidized surface layer whose thickness scaled with particle size resulting in a shell made of α -Fe 2 O 3 phase and a core containing Fe 3 O 4 or a mixture of both Fe 3 O 4 and FeO phases. Magnetometry indicates that the nanocubes undergo Morin (of the α -Fe 2 O 3 phase) and Verwey (of the Fe 3 O 4 phase) transitions at ∼250 K and ∼120 K, respectively. For smaller nanocubes (10, 15, and 24 nm), the EB effect is observed below 200 K, of which the 15 nm nanocubes showed the most prominent EB with optimal antiferromagnetic (AFM) FeO phase. No EB is reported for larger nanocubes (34 and 43 nm). The observed EB effect is ascribed to the strong interfacial coupling between the ferrimagnetic (FiM) Fe 3 O 4 phase and AFM FeO phase, while its absence is related to the disappearance of the FeO phase. The Fe 3 O 4 / α -Fe 2 O 3 (FiM/AFM) interfaces are found to have negligible influence on the EB. Our findings shed light on the complexity of the EB effect in mixed-phase iron oxide nanosystems and pave the way to design exchange-coupled nanomaterials with desirable magnetic properties for biomedical and spintronic applications.

Large Area Transfer of Bismuth‐Based Layered Oxide Thin Films Using a Flexible Polymer Transfer Method

Magnetic and ferroelectric oxide thin films have long been studied for their applications in electronics, optics, and sensors. The properties of these oxide thin films are highly dependent on the film growth quality and conditions. To maximize the film quality, epitaxial oxide thin films are frequently grown on single-crystal oxide substrates such as strontium titanate (SrTiO 3 ) and lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO 3 ) to satisfy lattice matching and minimize defect formation. However, these single-crystal oxide substrates cannot readily be used in practical applications due to their high cost, limited availability, and small wafer sizes. One leading solution to this challenge is film transfer. In this demonstration, a material from a new class of multiferroic oxides is selected, namely bismuth-based layered oxides, for the transfer. A water-soluble sacrificial layer of Sr 3 Al 2 O 6 is inserted between the oxide substrate and the film, enabling the release of the film from the original substrate onto a polymer support layer. The films are transferred onto new substrates of silicon and lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 ) and the polymer layer is removed. These substrates allow for the future design of electronic and optical devices as well as sensors using this new group of multiferroic layered oxide films.

Selective capture and recovery of uranium oxide colloids from aqueous soil suspensions using high gradient magnetic filtration

High Gradient Magnetic Filtration (HGMF) is a promising method for the selective capture and recovery of uranium oxide from surface soils. To date, however, magnetic filtration of uranium oxide has only been demonstrated at a proof-of-principle scale using relatively small filters (<5 cm 3 ) at low flowrates (<60 mL/min). Here, to explore the efficacy of magnetic filtration of uranium oxide at a larger scale, a newly designed HGMF apparatus that is more than an order of magnitude larger than our earlier filters (106 cm 3 ) was designed, fabricated, and tested at relatively high flowrates. Filtration experiments were performed using aqueous uranium oxide particle suspensions with Arizona Road Dust (ARD) as a soil simulant. At a flowrate of 125 mL/min, the apparatus’ uranium capture rate was exceptionally high (96 %), but selectivity was poor due to the high rate of capture for diamagnetic soil constituents (e.g., 77 % for silicon). All particles were captured at a lower rate when the flowrate was increased to 250 mL/min, but uranium selectivity was significantly increased due to the more substantial reduction in diamagnetic particle capture (i.e., capture rate of 77 % and 15 % for uranium and silicon, respectively). When backwashing the apparatus at the same flowrates used during filtration experiments, the rate of uranium recovery tended to be fairly low. Nevertheless, higher flowrates (1 L/min) and sonication were both shown to be highly effective methods of increasing uranium recovery. Magnetic field simulations were also performed to investigate potential optimizations to the design of the apparatus. These simulations showed that the intensity of the applied magnetic field could be increased by increasing the thickness of the steel magnetic housing. Additionally, stochastic trajectory simulations were performed to investigate the potential mechanisms of particle capture.

Emergent Magnetic State in (111)-Oriented Quasi-Two-Dimensional Spinel Oxides

We report on the emergent magnetic state of (111)-oriented CoCr 2 O 4 ultrathin films sandwiched between Al 2 O 3 spacer layers in a quantum confined geometry. At the two-dimensional crossover, polarized neutron reflectometry reveals an anomalous enhancement of the total magnetization compared to the bulk value. Synchrotron X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements demonstrate the appearance of a long-range ferromagnetic ordering of spins on both Co and Cr sublattices. Furthermore, brillouin function analyses and ab-initio density functional theory calculations further corroborate that the observed phenomena are due to the strongly altered magnetic frustration invoked by quantum confinement effects, manifested by the onset of a Yafet–Kittel-type ordering as the magnetic ground state in the ultrathin limit, which is unattainable in the bulk.

Effect of particle size on the capture of uranium oxide colloidal particles from aqueous suspensions via high-gradient magnetic filtration

The effectiveness of High Gradient Magnetic Filtration (HGMF) in capturing uranium oxide particles from suspensions was investigated in this study. Two sets of experiments were performed to evaluate the importance of size on the capture of uranium oxide particles. The first considered two batches sieved into size bins of< 5, 5–10, 10–15, and 15–20 µm, while the second was performed using two suspensions with diameters smaller than 1.0 µm and between 1.0 and 1.5 µm. Iron oxide experiments, with particles between 0.3 and 0.8 µm, were performed for calibration purposes. In all experiments, a surfactant (Triton-X100 or sodium dodecyl sulfate) was used to prevent particle aggregation and limit the influence of non-magnetic capture mechanisms. A magnetic field of approximately 1.1 Tesla was generated using a water cooled electromagnet. HGMF was performed using tubular filters packed with ferromagnetic stainless-steel wool. Of the initial four uranium oxide particle sizes, magnetic capture was only observed for particles with a diameter of less than 5 µm, while larger particles experienced no magnetic and minimal total capture. For particles with diameters smaller than 1.0 µm and between 1.0 and 1.5 µm, capture efficiencies increased by 39 ± 9% and 34 ± 6% respectively, solely due to the magnetic field. Although the magnetic force is proportional to particle diameter, the capture efficiency decreased as diameter increased. So these results suggest that Brownian diffusion, which is influential for micron sized particles and increases with decreasing particle size, is acting in conjunction with the magnetic force to influence the efficacy of HGMF for uranium oxide. This important finding underscores the effectiveness of Brownian diffusion in increasing the rate of collision between particles and collector fibers. A stochastic trajectory model was developed to incorporate the influence of Brownian motion on particle behavior and filter removal efficiency. Modeling results are discussed and compared for uranium and iron oxide particles.

99m Tc-, 90 Y-, and 177 Lu-Labeled Iron Oxide Nanoflowers Designed for Potential Use in Dual Magnetic Hyperthermia/Radionuclide Cancer Therapy and Diagnosis

Development of a complex based on iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) for diagnosis and dual magnetic hyperthermia/radionuclide cancer therapy accomplishing high yields of radiolabeling and great magnetic heat induction is still a challenge. We report here the synthesis of citric acid, poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and poly(ethylene glycol) coated IONPs and their labeling with three radionuclides, namely, technetium (99mTc), yttrium (90Y), and lutetium (177Lu), aiming at potential use in cancer diagnosis and therapy. Polyol-synthesized IONPs are a flowerlike structure with 13.5 nm spherically shaped cores and 24.8 nm diameter. PAA-coated nanoparticles (PAA@IONP) showed the best characteristics such as easy radiolabeling with very high yields (>97.5%) with all three radionuclides, and excellent in vitro stabilities with less than 10% of radionuclides detaching after 24 h. Heating ability of PAA@IONP in an alternating external magnetic field showed intrinsic loss power value of 7.3 nH m2/kg, which is one of higher reported values. Additionally, PAA@IONP itself presented no significant cytotoxicity to the CT-26 cancer cells, reaching IC50 at 60 μg/mL. However, under the external magnetic field, they show hyperthermia-mediated cells killing, which correlated with the magnetic field strength and time of exposure. Since PAA@IONP are easy to prepare, biocompatible, and with excellent magnetic heat induction, these nanoparticles radiolabeled with high-energy beta emitters 90Y and 177Lu have valuable potential as agent for dual magnetic hyperthermia/radionuclide therapy, while radiolabeled with 99mTc could be used in diagnostic imaging.

Magnetic Ni-N-Ni Centers in N-substituted NiO

Here, to explore how anion substitution modifies the existing magnetism in strongly correlated oxides, we investigate local electronic states and magnetic ordering in nickel oxide (NiO) induced by substituting oxygen (O) with nitrogen (N). Each N introduces an additional N 2p hole and modifies the magnetic moment of a neighboring nickel (Ni) cation site, as the exchange interaction between this hole and the Ni $e_{g}$ electrons exceeds the Ni-O-Ni superexchange interaction. This leads to the formation of Ni-N-Ni centers consisting of five spins, without perturbing the antiferromagnetic NiO lattice. These centers are studied using density functional theory and confirmed through high-resolution spectroscopy on N-substituted NiO thin films grown by molecular beam epitaxy. This type of magnetic design may enable future advances in quantum technologies based on strongly correlated materials, such as quantum sensors and spin-based qubits.

Studies on the structure and the magnetic properties of high-entropy spinel oxide (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4

The study of high-entropy materials has attracted enormous interest since they could show new functional properties that are not observed in their related parent phases. Here, we report single crystal growth, structure, thermal transport, and magnetic property studies on a novel high-entropy oxide with the spinel structure (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4 . We have successfully grown high-quality single crystals of this high-entropy oxide using the optical floating zone growth technique for the first time. The sample was confirmed to be a phase pure high-entropy oxide using x-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. Through magnetization measurements, we found (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4 exhibits a cluster spin glass state, though the parent phases show either antiferromagnetic ordering or spin glass states. Furthermore, we also found that (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4 has much greater thermal expansion than its CoAl 2 O 4 parent compound using high resolution neutron Larmor diffraction. We further investigated the structure of this high-entropy material via Raman spectroscopy and extended x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (EXAFS) measurements. From Raman spectroscopy measurements, we observed (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4 to display a combination of the active Raman modes in its parent compounds with the modes shifted and significantly broadened. This result, together with the varying bond lengths probed by EXAFS, reveals severe local lattice distortions in this high-entropy phase. Additionally, we found a substantial decrease in thermal conductivity and suppression of the low temperature thermal conductivity peak in (MgMnFeCoNi)Al 2 O 4 , consistent with the increased lattice defects and strain. These findings advance the understanding of the dependence of thermal expansion and transport on the lattice distortions in high-entropy materials.

Entropy Engineering and Tunable Magnetic Order in the Spinel High-Entropy Oxide

Spinel oxides are an ideal setting to explore the interplay between configurational entropy, site selectivity, and magnetism in high-entropy oxides (HEOs). In this work, we characterize the magnetic properties of the spinel (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni) 3 O 4 and study the evolution of its magnetism as a function of nonmagnetic gallium substitution. Across the range of compositions studied here, from 0 to 40% Ga, magnetic susceptibility and powder neutron diffraction measurements show that ferrimagnetic order is robust in the spinel HEO. However, we also find that the ferrimagnetic order is highly tunable, with the ordering temperature, saturated and sublattice moments, and magnetic hardness all varying significantly as a function of Ga concentration. Through X-ray absorption and magnetic circular dichroism, we are able to correlate this magnetic tunability with strong site selectivity between the various cations and the tetrahedral and octahedral sites in the spinel structure. In particular, we find that while Ni and Cr are largely unaffected by the substitution with Ga, the occupancies of Mn, Co, and Fe are each significantly redistributed. Ga substitution also requires an overall reduction in the transition metal valence, and this is entirely accommodated by Mn. Finally, we show that while site selectivity has an overall suppressing effect on the configurational entropy, over a certain range of compositions, Ga substitution yields a striking increase in the configurational entropy and may confer additional stabilization. In conclusion, spinel oxides can be tuned seamlessly from the low-entropy to the high-entropy regime, making this an ideal platform for entropy engineering.

Degradation of Magnetic Materials for High-Temperature Active Magnetic Bearing Applications in CO₂-Based Environments

High-temperature Active Magnetic Bearings (AMBs) are a promising alternative to conventional bearings in hermetically sealed turbomachinery for supercritical CO₂ (sCO₂) systems. They offer reduced CO₂ leakage, lower windage losses, enhanced misalignment tolerance, reduced wear, and built-in diagnostic capabilities. A critical challenge, however, is ensuring long-term material stability in harsh CO₂-rich environments. This study investigated the degradation behavior of permanent and soft magnetic materials (Alnico 9C, Alnico 5-7C, SmCo 18-T550, Hiperco-50, and coated variants) after up to 6,000 hours of exposure in gaseous CO₂, sCO₂, or air at 450 °C and 550 °C. The evaluation included post-exposure mass change measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis, and magnetic property assessments. The results demonstrate oxidation rates, microstructural evolution, and retention of magnetic performance across conditions. The findings offer essential insights into the thermal corrosion behavior of magnetic materials under CO₂ rich environments and serve as a reference for material selection in AMB system designs.

Study of Structural, Electronic, and Magnetic Properties of Cubic Lanthanide Based on Oxide Perovskite-Type NdGaO{sub 3}

Based on the density functional theory (DFT), the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave with local orbital (FP-L/APW+lo) technique is now employed in this approach to understand the structural, electronic, and magnetic properties of simple cubic oxide perovskite NdGaO{sub 3} compound. In all this investigation, the exchange-correlation (XC) energy is selected in the framework of spin-polarized generalized gradient approximation (spin-GGA). The structural analysis unveils that the ferromagnetic (FM) phase is the stable ground state of the cubic NdGaO{sub 3} compound, where the equilibrium lattice parameters (lattice constant (a{sub 0}), bulk modulus (B{sub 0}), and its first pressure derivative (B′)) are determined in both FM and paramagnetic (PM) phases. The spin-polarized electronic properties (band structure and density of states) of the cubic NdGaO{sub 3} oxide perovskite are studied under the platform of equilibrium lattice parameters; this investigation demonstrates the half-metallic behavior of the studied cubic NdGaO{sub 3} compound because the spin-up case displays the metallic nature, whereas the semiconducting character is observed in spin-down case. The magnetic properties reveal that the total magnetic moment of the cubic NdGaO{sub 3} compound is equal to 3 μ{sub B} and its contribution is mostly generated by Nd atoms, whereas feeble local magnetic moments are installed in non-magnetic Ga and O sites. Through the electronic and magnetic results, we conclude that the cubic perovskite NdGaO{sub 3} compound is classified as a half-metallic ferromagnetic material.

Scale-invariant magnetic textures in the strongly correlated oxide NdNiO 3

Strongly correlated quantum solids are characterized by an inherently granular electronic fabric, with spatial patterns that can span multiple length scales in proximity to a critical point. Here, we use a resonant magnetic X-ray scattering nanoprobe with sub-100 nm spatial resolution to directly visualize the texture of antiferromagnetic domains in NdNiO 3 . Surprisingly, our measurements reveal a highly textured magnetic fabric, which we show to be robust and nonvolatile even after thermal erasure across its ordering temperature. The scale-free distribution of antiferromagnetic domains and its non-integral dimensionality point to a hitherto-unobserved magnetic fractal geometry in this system. These scale-invariant textures directly reflect the continuous nature of the magnetic transition and the proximity of this system to a critical point. The present study not only exposes the near-critical behavior in rare earth nickelates but also underscores the potential for X-ray scattering nanoprobes to image the multiscale signatures of criticality near a critical point.

Interface-induced magnetic polar metal phase in complex oxides

Abstract Polar metals are commonly defined as metals with polar structural distortions. Strict symmetry restrictions make them an extremely rare breed as the structural constraints favor insulating over metallic phase. Moreover, no polar metals are known to be magnetic. Here we report on the realization of a magnetic polar metal phase in a BaTiO 3 /SrRuO 3 /BaTiO 3 heterostructure. Electron microscopy reveals polar lattice distortions in three-unit-cells thick SrRuO 3 between BaTiO 3 layers. Electrical transport and magnetization measurements reveal that this heterostructure possesses a metallic phase with high conductivity and ferromagnetic ordering with high saturation moment. The high conductivity in the SrRuO 3 layer can be attributed to the effect of electrostatic carrier accumulation induced by the BaTiO 3 layers. Density-functional-theory calculations provide insights into the origin of the observed properties of the thin SrRuO 3 film. The present results pave a way to design materials with desired functionalities at oxide interfaces.

Magnetic Vortex and Hyperthermia Suppression in Multigrain Iron Oxide Nanorings

Single-crystal iron oxide nanorings have been proposed as a promising candidate for magnetic hyperthermia application because of their unique shape-induced vortex-domain structure, which supports good colloidal stability and enhanced magnetic properties. However, the synthesis of single crystalline iron oxide has proven to be challenging. In this article, we showed that chemically synthesized multigrain magnetite nanorings disfavor a shape-induced magnetic vortex-domain structure. Our results indicate that the multigrain Fe 3 O 4 nanorings with an average outer diameter of ~110 nm and an inner to outer diameter ratio of ~0.5 do not show a shape-induced vortex-domain structure, which was observed in the single-crystal Fe 3 O 4 nanorings of similar dimensions. At 300 Ks, multigrain magnetite nanorings showed an effective anisotropy field of 440 Oe, which can be attributed to its high surface area and intraparticle interaction. Both calorimetric and AC loop measurements showed a moderate inductive heating efficiency of multigrain magnetite nanorings of ~300 W/g at 800 Oe. Our results shed light on the magnetic ground states of chemically synthesized multigrain Fe 3 O 4 nanorings.

Significant reduction in the low-field magnetization of Nb 3 Sn superconducting strands using the internal oxidation APC approach

Nb 3 Sn superconductors are promising for building accelerator magnets for future energy-frontier circular colliders. A critical factor for this application is the low-field persistent-current magnetization because it leads to several critical issues: e.g. low-field instability (including flux jumps), hysteresis loss, and field errors in magnet bores. Suppression of low-field magnetization requires reduction of low-field critical current density (J c ) or effective subelement size (d eff ). However, reduction of deff of state-of-the-art Nb 3 Sn conductors—the restacked-rod-process (RRP ® ) type—below 40–50 μm without a pronounced decrease in high-field J c is difficult. On the other hand, the internal oxidation method which forms artificial pinning centers (APC) in Nb 3 Sn offers an alternative approach to reducing the low-field magnetization. Compared with a conventional Nb 3 Sn conductor whose flux pinning force versus field (F p –B) curve peaks at ~20% of its irreversibility field (B irr ), the F p –B curve peaks of APC conductors shift to higher fields due to the point pinning effect, leading to flattening of the J c –B curves. The goal of this paper is to quantitatively study how much the APC approach can reduce the low-field magnetization. Here we measured the J c –B curves of an RRP ® conductor and two APC conductors (reacted at 700 °C) from zero field to B irr using a high-field vibrating sample magnetometer. Here the results showed that the APC conductors have higher non-Cu J c at high fields (e.g. 32%–41% higher at 16 T) and simultaneously lower non-Cu Jc at low fields (e.g. 28%–34% lower at 1 T) compared with the RRP ® . This effect is due to a competition between their Nb3Sn layer fraction ratios and layer F p ratios. Suppose they reach the same 16 T non-Cu J c , then the 1 T non-Cu J c and magnetization of the APC conductors are only half or even less compared with the RRP ® conductor.
