Colors and Magnetism03:02

Colors and Magnetism

12.5K
Color in Coordination Complexes
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...

Ferromagnetism01:31

Ferromagnetism

2.5K
Materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt consist of magnetic domains, within which the magnetic dipoles are arranged parallel to each other. The magnetic dipoles are rigidly aligned in the same direction within a domain by quantum mechanical coupling among the atoms. This coupling is so strong that even thermal agitation at room temperature cannot break it. The result is that each domain has a net dipole moment. However, some materials have weaker coupling, and are ferromagnetic at lower...

Diamagnetism01:26

Diamagnetism

2.5K
Materials consisting of paired electrons have zero net magnetic moments. However, when these materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Such materials are called diamagnets. Diamagnetism is the response of the diamagnets when placed in an external magnetic field.
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....

Paramagnetism01:30

Paramagnetism

2.6K
Paramagnets are materials with unpaired electrons that possess a finite magnetic moment. In the absence of a magnetic field, these moments are randomly oriented, and thus the net moment is zero. Under an external field, a torque acting on the moments tends to align them along the field's direction. However, the random thermal motion of electrons produces a torque opposite to the external field and tries to disorient the moments. These two competing effects align only a few moments along the...

Valence Bond Theory02:42

Valence Bond Theory

9.8K
Coordination compounds and complexes exhibit different colors, geometries, and magnetic behavior, depending on the metal atom/ion and ligands from which they are composed. In an attempt to explain the bonding and structure of coordination complexes, Linus Pauling proposed the valence bond theory, or VBT, using the concepts of hybridization and the overlapping of the atomic orbitals. According to VBT, the central metal atom or ion (Lewis acid) hybridizes to provide empty orbitals of suitable...

Types Of Superconductors01:28

Types Of Superconductors

1.2K
A superconductor is a substance that offers zero resistance to the electric current when it drops below a critical temperature. Zero resistance is not the only interesting phenomenon as materials reach their transition temperatures. A second effect is the exclusion of magnetic fields. This is known as the Meissner effect. A light, permanent magnet placed over a superconducting sample will levitate in a stable position above the superconductor. High-speed trains that levitate on strong...

  • Solid-State Physics
  • Magnetism

Background:

  • Double perovskite materials are of interest for their unique magnetic and electronic properties.
  • Understanding the relationship between crystal structure, magnetic behavior, and magnetocaloric effect is crucial for developing advanced cooling technologies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the crystal structure, cryogenic magnetic properties, and magnetocaloric performance of Eu2NiMnO6 (ENMO), Gd2NiMnO6 (GNMO), and Tb2NiMnO6 (TNMO) double perovskites.
  • To elucidate the influence of rare-earth element size on the structural, magnetic, and magnetocaloric properties.

  • Solid-state synthesis method for ceramic powder samples.
  • X-ray diffraction for structural analysis.
  • Magnetic property measurements at cryogenic temperatures.
  • Magnetocaloric performance evaluation under an applied magnetic field.

Main Results:

  • All synthesized compounds (ENMO, GNMO, TNMO) crystallized in a monoclinic structure (P21/n space group).
  • Ferromagnetic to paramagnetic transitions were observed at 143 K (ENMO), 130 K (GNMO), and 112 K (TNMO).
  • Maximum magnetic entropy changes ranged from 3.2 to 3.8 J/kgK, and relative cooling powers ranged from 150 to 182 J/kg under a 5 T field.

Conclusions:

  • The magnetocaloric effect in these double perovskites is attributed to the Ni-O-Mn superexchange interactions.
  • The varying atomic radii of Eu, Gd, and Tb influence the Mn4+/Mn3+ ratio, leading to significant changes in material properties.
  • These findings highlight the potential of rare-earth-substituted double perovskites for cryogenic magnetic cooling applications.
