We have investigated the equilibrium states of ferromagnetic single wall nanotubes by means of atomistic Monte Carlo simulations of a zig-zag lattice of Heisenberg spins on the surface of a cylinder. The main focus of our study is to determine how the competition between short-range exchange (J) and long-range dipolar (D) interactions influences the low temperature magnetic order of the nanotubes as well as the thermal-driven transitions involved. Apart from the uniform and vortex states occurring for dominant J or D, we find that helical states become stable for a range of intermediate values of g = D=J that depends on the radius and length of the nanotube. Introducing a vorticity order parameter to better characterize helical and vortex states, we find the pseudo-critical temperatures for the transitions between these states and we establish the magnetic phase diagrams of their stability regions as a function of the nanotube aspect ratio. Comparison of the energy of the states obtained by simulation with those of simpler theoretical structures that interpolate continuously between them, reveals a high degree of metastability of the helical structures that might be relevant for their reversal modes.

We present a theoretical analysis of the effect of dielectric confinement on the Coulomb interaction in dielectrically modulated quantum structures. We discuss the implications of the strong enhancement of the electron-hole and electron-electron coup ling for two specific examples: (i) GaAs-based quantum wires with remote oxide barriers, where combined quantum and dielectric confinements are predicted to lead to room temperature exciton binding, and (ii) semiconductor quantum dots in colloidal environments, where the many-body ground states and the addition spectra are predicted to be drastically altered by the dielectric environment.

We propose to tailor exchange interactions in magnetic monolayer films by tuning the adjacent non-magnetic substrate. As an example, we demonstrate a ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic phase transition for one monolayer Fe on a Ta(x)W(1-x)(001) surface as a function of the Ta concentration. At the critical Ta concentration, the nearest-neighbor exchange interaction is small and the magnetic phase space is dramatically broadened. Complex magnetic order such as spin-spirals, multiple-Q, or even disordered local moment states can occur, offering the possibility to store information in terms of ferromagnetic dots in an otherwise zero-magnetization state matrix.
Directly imaging the configurations of small molecules at the ambient temperatures will greatly promote the study of their chemical and physical properties, including the host-guest interactions of organics in porous materials during the adsorption, catalysis and energy storage. However, due to the current challenges on the small-molecule imaging by the (scanning) transmission electron microscopy ((S)TEM), we still have a lack of the molecular-level understandings on the host-guest interactions and other molecular behaviors. Here, we achieved the STEM imaging of various small aromatics confined in the MFI-type zeolite frameworks by using the integrated differential phase contrast (iDPC) technique. Due to the strong confinement effect in MFI channels, the 1D solid-like aromatic columns showed the coherent configurations, which were clearly resolved by enhancing the host-guest interactions. Then, we also evaluated the strength of host-guest interactions directly by the image analysis and revealed the desorption behaviors of confined aromatics during the in-situ heating process. These results not only helped us to reveal the configurations and host-guest interactions of small aromatics during the adsorption/desorption in porous materials, but also expanded the applications of STEM to further study other molecular behaviors in the real space.
When magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are single-domain and magnetically independent, their magnetic properties and the conditions to optimize their efficiency in magnetic hyperthermia applications are now well-understood. However, the influence of magn etic interactions on magnetic hyperthermia properties is still unclear. Here, we report hyperthermia and high-frequency hysteresis loop measurements on a model system consisting of MNPs with the same size but a varying anisotropy, which is an interesting way to tune the relative strength of magnetic interactions. A clear correlation between the MNP anisotropy and the squareness of their hysteresis loop in colloidal solution is observed : the larger the anisotropy, the smaller the squareness. Since low anisotropy MNPs display a squareness higher than the one of magnetically independent nanoparticles, magnetic interactions enhance their heating power in this case. Hysteresis loop calculations of independent and coupled MNPs are compared to experimental results. It is shown that the observed features are a natural consequence of the formation of chains and columns of MNPs during hyperthermia experiments: in these structures, when the MNP magnetocristalline anisotropy is small enough to be dominated by magnetic interactions, the hysteresis loop shape tends to be rectangular, which enhance their efficiency. On the contrary, when MNPs do not form chains and columns, magnetic interactions reduces the hysteresis loop squareness and the efficiency of MNPs compared to independent ones. The present work should improve the understanding and interpretation of magnetic hyperthermia experiments.
The propagation of edge localized spin waves (E-SWs) in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) microstripes with/without the proximate magnetic microstructures is investigated by micromagnetic simulations. A splitting of the dispersion curve with the presence of permalloy (Py) stripe is also observed. The E-SWs on the two edges of YIG stripe have different wavelengths, group velocities, and decay lengths at the same frequencies. The role of the Py stripe was found to be the source of the inhomogeneous static dipolar field without dynamic coupling with YIG. This work opens new perspectives for the design of innovative SW interference-based logic devices.
