Abstract:
This work was focused on the effects of Mn doping on the phase stability and magnetic performance of SmCo7 based alloys. Particularly, the role of Mn in the improvement of the magnetization of the SmCo7 matrix, as well as its mechanisms, was examined in detail. The metastable SmCo7 single phase was well stabilized by the appropriate content of Mn doping and nanostructuring of the alloy. It was discovered that the non-ferromagnetic element Mn can enhance magnetization effectively. By tailoring the Mn content and nanostructuring, the prepared SmCo7-xMnx alloy achieved good comprehensive magnetic properties. The mechanisms for the magnetization enhancement by Mn and the coupled effect of Mn doping and nanostructuring on the magnetic properties were proposed based on the characterization of magnetic structures and the model calculations of magnetic moments.

Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets....
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...

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...
