Magnetic and transport properties of (Pr1/3Sm2/3)2/3A1/3MnO3 (A = Ca, Sr and Ba) compounds, prepared by the citrate gel route, have been investigated. These compounds are found to crystallize in the orthorhombic structure. Charge ordering transport behavior is indicated only in Ca-substituted compound. The Sr- and Ba-substituted compounds show metal-insulator transition and semiconducting-like behavior, respectively. The magnetoresistance is highest in the Ba substituted compound. All the three samples show irreversibility in magnetization as a function of temperature in zero-field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) plots. The non-saturating magnetization, even at 5K and 4 Tesla field, are observed in Ca as well Ba-substituted compounds.

With a combined ab initio density functional and model Hamiltonian approach we establish that in the recently discovered multiferroic phase of the manganite Sr$_{1/2}$Ba$_{1/2}$MnO$_{3}$ the polar distortion of Mn and O ions is stabilized via enhance
d in-plane Mn-O hybridizations. The magnetic superexchange interaction is very sensitive to the polar bond-bending distortion, and we find that this dependence directly causes a strong magnetoelectric coupling. This novel mechanism for multiferroicity is consistent with the experimentally observed reduced ferroelectric polarization upon the onset of magnetic ordering.
Lattice dynamics and high pressure phase transitions in AWO4 (A = Ba, Sr, Ca and Pb) have been investigated using inelastic neutron scattering experiments, ab-initio density functional theory calculations and extensive molecular dynamics simulations.
The vibrational modes that are internal to WO4 tetrahedra occur at the highest energies consistent with the relative stability of WO4 tetrahedra. The neutron data and the ab-initio calculations are found to be in excellent agreement. The neutron and structural data are used to develop and validate an interatomic potential model. The model is used for classical molecular dynamics simulations to study their response to high pressure. We have calculated the enthalpies of the scheelite and fergusonite phases as a function of pressure, which confirms that the scheelite to fergusonite transition is second order in nature. With increase in pressure, there is a gradual change in the AO8 polyhedra, while there is no apparent change in the WO4 tetrahedra. We found that that all the four tungstates amorphize at high pressure. This is in good agreement with available experimental observations which show amorphization at around 45 GPa in BaWO4 and 40 GPa in CaWO4. On amorphization, there is an abrupt increase in the coordination of the W atom while the bisdisphenoids around A atom are considerably distorted. The pair correlation functions of the various atom pairs corroborate these observations. Our observations aid in predicting the pressure of amorphization in SrWO4 and PbWO4, which have not been experimentally reported.
We report $^{59}$Co NMR and transport measurements on $n$-type filled skutterudites Ba$_x$Yb$_y$Co$_4$Sb$_{12}$ and $A$$_x$Co$_4$Sb$_{12}$ ($A$= Ba, Sr), promising thermoelectric materials. The results demonstrate consistently that a shallow defect l
evel near the conduction band minimum dominates the electronic behavior, in contrast to the behavior of unfilled CoSb$_3$. To analyze the results, we modeled the defect as having a single peak in the density of states, occupied at low temperatures due to donated charges from filler atoms. We fitted the NMR shifts and spin-lattice relaxation rates allowing for arbitrary carrier densities and degeneracies. The results provide a consistent picture for the Hall data, explaining the temperature dependence of the carrier concentration. Furthermore, without adjusting model parameters, we calculated Seebeck coefficient curves, which also provide good consistency. In agreement with recently reported computational results, it appears that composite native defects induced by the presence of filler atoms can explain this behavior. These results provide a better understanding of the balance of charge carriers, of crucial importance for designing improved thermoelectric materials.
In this paper, we employ CASTEP based on DFT (density functional theory) calculations to investigate various physical properties of BaVO3, SrVO3, CaVO3 and PbVO3. The elastic constants, bulk modulus, Shear modulus, Youngs modulus, Pughs ratio, Poisso
ns ratio, Vickers hardness, universal anisotropy index and Peierls stress are calculated to rationalize the mechanical behavior of the aforementioned compounds. The study of electronic band structure and density of states (DOS) reveal the strong evidence of metallic behavior for all the perovskites. The analysis of bonding properties exhibits the existence of covalent, ionic and metallic bonds. The optical properties of AVO3 have been carried out and are discussed in this paper as well. The analysis of phonon property implies the dynamical stability of BaVO3 but not for SrVO3, CaVO3 and PbVO3. The values of Debye temperature and minimum thermal conductivity imply that only PbVO3 compound has potential to be used as TBC material.
An emerging area in condensed matter physics is the use of multilayered heterostructures to enhance ferroelectricity in complex oxides. Here, we demonstrate that optically pumping carriers across the interface between thin films of a ferroelectric (F
E) insulator and a ferromagnetic metal can significantly enhance the FE polarization. The photoinduced FE state remains stable at low temperatures for over one day. This occurs through screening of the internal electric field by the photoexcited carriers, leading to a larger, more stable polarization state that may be suitable for applications in areas such as data and energy storage.
