  • Photosensitization via the singlet oxygen ($^1O_2$) mechanism by the binuclear iron-sulfur center, denoted as [2Fe-2S], was investigated, using a highly purified ferredoxin (Fd) preparation from spinach leaves. Since the apoprotein of Fd contains a good number of amino acid residues that are readily reactive with $^1O_2$ and thus interfere with the detection of $^1O_2$ generated from [2Fe-2S], we attempted to deprive the $^1O_2$-sensitive residues of their $^1O_2$-scavenging capacity as much as possible by treating Fd with rose bengal plus 550 nm monochromatic light and thereby photooxidatively degrading these residues. The photochemically modified Fd was found to keep the structural integrity of its Fe-S group virtually unaffected by the treatment. By employing chemical trap method for measurement and examining the kinetic effects of azide and deuterium oxide on the reactions of $^1O_2$ with various trap compounds, we were able to demonstrate that [2Fe-2S] indeed acts as a photosensitizer via $^1O_2$. Further, the minimum quantum yield of $^1O_2$ production by [2Fe-2S] was estimated to be 0.0047.

  • The cyclic voltammogram characteristics at the magnetized SrO${\cdot}6Fe_{2}O_{3}$ ceramics/(($10^{-3}$M KCI + p-Si powders) and /(($10^{-4}$M CsNO$_3$ + n-GaAs powders) suspension interfaces have been studied using the microelectrophoresis and the cyclic voltammetric method. The negatively charged ions are specifically absorbed on the virgin and the magnetized SrO${\cdot}6Fe_{2}O_{3}$ ceramics surfaces. The zeta potentials of the p-Si and n-GaAs colloidal semiconductors are + 41mV and -44.8mV, respectively. The magnetization effects act as potential barriers at the magnetized SrO${\cdot}6Fe_{2}O_{3}$ interfaces. The positivelely charged p-Si and the negatively charged n-GaAs colloidal semiconductors act as potential barriers at the virgin SrO${\cdot}6Fe_{2}O_{3}$ interfaces. On the other hand, the charged p-Si and n-GaAs colloidal semiconductors act as potential barrier scavengers at the magnetized SrO${\cdot}6Fe_{2}O_{3}$ interfaces. The magnetization effects and the charged colloidal semiconductor effects are irreversible and interdependent.

  • The $ Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x $materials were prepared by the combination consisting of the HDDR (hydrogenation, disproportionation, desorption, and recombination) process and nitrogenation or by the conventional way consisting of nitrogenation only, and the magnetic and thermomagnetic properties of the materials were investigated. The magnetic characterisation of the prepared $ Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x $ materials was performed using a VSM. Thermal stability of the materials was evaluated using a DTA under Ar gas atmosphere. The thermomagnetic characteristics of the materials were examined using a Sucksmith-type balance. The previously HDDR-treated Sm2Fe17parent alloy was found to be nitrogenated more easily compared to the ordinary $ Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x $alloy. The $ Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x $ material produced by the combination method showed a high coercivity (12.9 kOe) even in the state of coarse particle size (around 60 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$). It was also revealed that the $ Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x $ material produced by the material produced by the combination showed an unusual TMA tracing featured with a low and constant magnetisation at lower temperature range and a peak just before the Curie temperature. This thermomagnetic characteristic was interpreted in terms of the competition between two counteracting effects; the decrease in magnetisation due to the thermal agitation at an elevated temperature and the increase in magnetisation resulting from the rotation of magnetisation of the fine grains comparable to a critical single domain size due to the decreased magnetocrystalline anisotropy at an elevated temperature.

  • The systematic variation of complex permeability and complex permittivity and their relationship with micro-wave absorbing properties are investigated in sintered Ni-Zn ferrites of non-stoichiometric composition. The specirrens of ${(Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}O)}_{1-x}(Fe_{2}O_{3})_{1+x}$ spinels were prepared by a conventional ceramic processing technique. In the present study. complex permeability and permittivity can be controlled by the variation of ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ contents in the spinel lattice. The primary effect of the excess ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ is to increase the dielectric constant. while the notable decrease of magnetic loss is observed in the iron-deficient ferrites. The results suggest that the matching fre-queocyand matching thickness could be controlled by the variation of ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ contents in the Ni-Zn ferrite.

  • $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O$ and $MgFe_2O_4$ powders were synthesized using chemical methods and mixed in different proportions to prepare a mixture of $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O$ and $MgFe_2O_4$ that was thermally treated between 900 to $1100^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Structural characterization was done using X-ray powder diffraction measurements. Grain sizes and morphologies of $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O$, $MgFe_2O_4$, and $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O+MgFe_2O_4$ samples were observed using a scanning electron microscope. Variation of magnetic properties of the $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O+MgFe_2O_4$ samples due to the addition of $Li_{0.1}Zn_{0.9}O$ was studied in relation to the structural changes occurring due to the thermal treatment. In particular, changes in the cationic distribution between the tetrahedral and octahedral positions were studied with respect to the increase of the annealing temperature. Magnetization was found to be dependent on the cations distributed in the tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the $MgFe_2O_4$.
