In-situ monitoring of room temperature reactions of lanthanides with nitrogen and hydrogen at low pressures
Jay R. Chan, H. Joe Trodahl, Denis Lefebvre +2
The dissociative chemisorption of molecular nitrogen on clean lanthanide surfaces at ambient temperature and low pressure is explored. In-situ conductance measurements track the co…
4f Conduction in the Magnetic Semiconductor NdN
W. F. Holmes-Hewett, R. G. Buckley, B. J. Ruck +2
We report the growth of films of the intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductor NdN, and an investigation of their optical and transport properties. There is clear evidence of a strong…
Optical Spectroscopy of SmN: Evidence for 4f Transport
W. F. Holmes-Hewett, R. G. Buckley, B. J. Ruck +2
The rare-earth nitride ferromagnetic semiconductors owe their varying magnetic properties to the progressive filling of 4f shell across the series. Recent electrical transport meas…
On the ferromagnetic ground state of SmN
J. F. McNulty, B. J. Ruck, H. J. Trodahl
SmN is a ferromagnetic semiconductor with the unusual property of an orbital-dominant magnetic moment that is largely cancelled by an antiparallel spin contribution, resulting in a…
Superconductivity in the ferromagnetic semiconductor SmN
E. -M. Anton, S. Granville, A. Engel +8
The discovery of materials that simultaneously host different phases of matter has often initially confounded, but ultimately enhanced, our basic understanding of the coexisting ty…
Twisted phase of the orbital-dominant ferromagnet SmN in a GdN/SmN heterostructure
J. F. McNulty, E. -M. Anton, B. J. Ruck +7
The strong spin-orbit interaction in the rare-earth elements ensures that even within a ferromagnetic state there is a substantial orbital contribution to the ferromagnetic moment,…
