Abstract:
Magnetic transport properties in Ti(1-x)Co(x)O(2) and Zn(1-x)Co(x)O magnetic semiconductors have been studied experimentally and theoretically. A linear relation of lnρ versus T(-1/2) (ρ is sheet resistance and T is temperature), which shows different slopes and intersections at different magnetic fields, was observed experimentally in the low temperature range. The spin-dependent variable range hopping model has been proposed by taking into account the electron-electron Coulomb interaction and the spin-spin exchange interaction in the same frame, which can well describe the observed magnetic transport properties in Ti(1-x)Co(x)O(2) and Zn(1-x)Co(x)O magnetic semiconductors.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
