Abstract:
In the present article we discuss theoretically the emergence of superconductivity in field cooled FeCr2S4. The chromium electrons form a triplett2states and due to antiferromagnetic exchange with the iron spins have Zeeman splitting. Applied, during preparation, magnetic field along the moment of iron ions, successively compensates the Zeeman splittings. The chromium electrons with zero Zeeman energy form Cooper pairs induced by iron magnons. In that way, we predict theoretically the existence of sequence of superconducting states in field cooled FeCr2S4. Actually there are three different superconductors prepared applying, during preparation, different magnetic fields. In these compounds superconductivity coexist with the saturated magnetism of iron ions.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
