The physicochemical characterization of the magnetoferritin biomacromolecule in terms of morphology, structural and magnetic properties shows that iron oxides can be efficiently loaded into apoferritin molecules, preserving their native biocompatible structure and affecting the morphology of the protein shell.

A series of nine samples of sigma-Fe_{100-x}Mo_x with 44<x<57 were synthesized by a sintering method. The samples were investigated experimentally and theoretically. Using X-ray diffraction techniques structural parameters such as lattice constants,
atomic positions within the unit cell and populations of atoms over five different sublattices were determined. An information on charge-densities and electric field gradients at particular lattice sites was obtained by application of the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) method for electronic structure calculations. Hyperfine quantities calculated with KKR were successfully applied to analyze Mossbauer spectra measured at room temperature.
Heusler compounds form a numerous class of intermetallics, which include two families of compositions ABC and AB2C, usually referred to as half- and full-Heusler compounds, respectively. Given their tunable electronic properties, made possible by adj
usting the chemical composition, these materials are currently considered for the possible use in sustainable technologies such as solar energy and thermoelectric conversion. According to theoretical predictions, Sb substitution in the TiFe2Sn full-Heusler compound is thought to yield band structure modifications that should enhance the thermoelectric power factor. In this work we tested the phase stability and the structural and microstructural properties of such heavily-doped compounds. We synthesized polycrystalline TiFe2Sn1-xSbx samples (x=0,0.1,0.2 and 1.0) by arc melting, followed annealing. The structural characterization, performed by x-ray powder diffraction and microscopy analyses, confirmed the formation of the Heusler AB2C structure (cF16, Fm-3m, prototype: MnCu2Al) in all samples, with only few percent amounts of secondary phases and only slight deviations from nominal stoichiometry. With increasing Sb substitution we found a steady decrease of the lattice parameter, confirming that the replacement takes place at the Sn site. Quite unusually, the as cast samples exhibited a higher lattice contraction than the annealed ones. The fully substituted x=1.0 compound, again adopting the MnCu2Al structure, does not form as stoichiometric phase and turned out to be strongly Fe deficient.The physical behavior at room temperature indicated that annealing with increasing temperature is beneficial for electrical and thermoelectrical transport. Moreover, we measured a slight improvement of electrical and thermoelectrical properties in the x=0.1 sample and a suppression in the x=0.2 sample, as compared to the undoped x=0 sample.
Magnetoferritin, a synthetic derivate of iron storage protein - ferritin, has been synthesized with different iron oxide loading values. Small-angle neutron scattering experiments were applied to study the structure of magnetoferritin solutions using
contrast variation method by varying the light to heavy water ratio of the solvent. Higher iron loading leads to increasing of the neutron scattering length density of magnetoferritin and also to the increase of the polydispersity of complexes. The formation of the magnetic core and the variation of the protein shell structure upon iron loading are concluded.
Bismaleimide (BMI) are thermosetting polymers mainly used in aerospace applications having properties of dimensional stability, low shrinkage, chemical resistance, fire resistance, good mechanical properties and high resistance against various solven
ts, acids, and water. BMI is commercially available as Homide 250. BMI coating has also been used for the corrosion protection. Metallization (AL) of BMI using vacuum evaporation was done which serves the purpose of prevention of space charge accumulation in aircraft bodies. Addition of inorganic materials like metal oxides can influence the properties of the polymer as an inorganic-organic composite. The organic-ionorganic composites have wide applications in electronics, optics, chemistry and medicine. Titanium dioxide (TiO2, Titania) has a wide range of applications starting from photocatalysis, dye-sensitized solar cells to optical coatings and electronics. A BMI-TiO2 composite was prepared by chemical route. Atmospheric Plasma Jet (APPJ) using Helium gas was also treated on BMI. XRD and FTIR studies of the composite system prepared at different temperatures showed its crystalline and structural configuration.
Antiferromagnetic materials are of great interest for spintronics. Here we present a comprehensive study of the growth, structural characterization, and resulting magnetic properties of thin films of the non-collinear antiferromagnet Mn$_{3}$Ir. Usin
g epitaxial engineering on MgO (001) and Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ (0001) single crystal substrates, we control the growth of cubic ${gamma}$-Mn$_{3}$Ir in both (001) and (111) crystal orientations, and discuss the optimization of growth conditions to achieve high-quality crystal structures with low surface roughness. Exchange bias is studied in bilayers, with exchange bias fields as large as -29 mT (equivalent to a unidirectional anisotropy constant of 11.5 nJ cm$^{-2}$) measured in Mn$_{3}$Ir (111) / permalloy heterostructures at room temperature. In addition, a distinct dependence of blocking temperature on in-plane crystallographic direction in Mn$_{3}$Ir (001) / Py bilayers is observed. These findings are discussed in the context of chiral antiferromagnetic domain structures, and will inform progress towards topological antiferromagnetic spintronic devices.
