Magnetars are neutron stars possessing a magnetic field of about $10^{14}-10^{15}$ G at the surface. Thermodynamic properties of neutron star matter, approximated by pure neutron matter, are considered at finite temperature in strong magnetic fields up to $10^{18}$ G which could be relevant for the inner regions of magnetars. In the model with the Skyrme effective interaction, it is shown that a thermodynamically stable branch of solutions for the spin polarization parameter corresponds to the case when the majority of neutron spins are oriented opposite to the direction of the magnetic field (i.e. negative spin polarization). Moreover, starting from some threshold density, the self-consistent equations have also two other branches of solutions, corresponding to positive spin polarization. The influence of finite temperatures on spin polarization remains moderate in the Skyrme model up to temperatures relevant for protoneutron stars. In particular, the scenario with the metastable state characterized by positive spin polarization, considered at zero temperature in Phys. Rev. C 80, 065801 (2009), is preserved at finite temperatures as well. It is shown that, above certain density, the entropy for various branches of spin polarization in neutron matter with the Skyrme interaction in a strong magnetic field shows the unusual behavior, being larger than that of the nonpolarized state. By providing the corresponding low-temperature analysis, we prove that this unexpected behavior should be related to the dependence of the entropy of a spin polarized state on the effective masses of neutrons with spin up and spin down, and to a certain constraint on them which is violated in the respective density range.

인공위성에서 자세획득을 위해 기동을 하거나 이상상태 발생으로 위성이 임무를 수행하지 못하여 결국에 위성을 잃어버리게 되는 Flat Spin 상태에서 자세를 복구하는 방안인 Dual Spin Turn의 원리에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. Dual Spin Turn 현상에서 중요한 모멘텀 전달 원리를 물리적으로 명확하게 설명하였다. 그리고 기존의 연구결과에서 많이 알려진 방법을 포함하여 일반적인 위성의 관성모멘트 조건과 모멘텀 휠의 회전 방향 등을 여러 가지로 변화시켜 보면서 타당성을 검증하였다. Dual Spin Turn 과정은 개루프 제어와 에너지 감쇄장치의 도입이라는 2단계 제어방법을 이용하여 여러 경우에 대해 시뮬레이션으로 분석해보았다. 또한 제어의 타당성을 입증하기 위해 2단계 제어 이후의 안정성에 대해 검증하였다. 그리고 Dual Spin Turn을 이용하여 Flat Spin Recovery를 수행하는 시나리오를 예제로 제시하였다.

This study examined the current-induced spin wave excitation in asymmetric nanopillar junctions with a stack sequence of 20 nm Pt/10 nm Cu/7 nm NiFe/300 nm Cu, and a circular lateral dimension of 240 nm. An analysis of the magnetic and magnetotransport characteristics of the junction showed a possible spin transfer effect at this sample dimension when the magnetization was switched from a vortex state to another state. This finding is expected to help improve the understanding of the spin transfer torque phenomenon in nanopillar junctions.

We have investigated the effect of temperature and bias current on the stability of the inverse spin-switch effect in Permalloy(Py)/Nb/Permalloy pseudo spin-valves. The inverse spin-switch operates between two orientations of the ferromagnetic moments of Py layers; parallel (ON) and antiparallel-domain (OFF) state. Measuring time scans of the resistance changes between the ON and OFF state, ${\Delta}R_{ON-OFF}$, while alternating magnetic fields between the two states at various temperatures and bias currents, revealed that enhancement of ${\Delta}R_{ON-OFF}$ is a key factor to achieve successful operation of superconducting spin switch.

We have studied magnetic and transport properties of NbN/FeN/Cu/FeN/FeMn spin-valve structure. In-plane magnetic moment exhibited typical hysteresis loops of spin valves in the normal state of NbN film at 20 K. On the other hand, the magnetic hysteresis loop in the superconducting state exhibited more complex behavior in which exchange bias provided by antiferrmagnetic FeMn layer to adjacent FeN layer was disturbed by superconductivity. Because of this, the ideal superconducting spin-valve effect was not detected. Instead the stray field originated from unsaturated magnetic states dominated the transport properties of NbN/FeN/Cu/FeN/FeMn multilayer.

2차원 상호작용하는 페르미온 계에 대한 혼돈 대각화 계산의 컴퓨터 계산 시간이, 대칭성 연산과 같은 여러 가지 방법을 이용함으로써 감소되었다. 첫째로, 각각의 격자를 업스핀(${\uparrow}$) 격자와 다운스핀(${\downarrow}$) 격자로 나누어서 2부분 격자가 가능케 했다. 이에 따라, 유효한 바탕 상태는 업스핀 배열에 다운스핀 배열을 겹침으로써 얻어진다. 결과적으로, 시험 바탕 상태를 저장하는데 사용되는 메모리 공간이 현저하게 감소되었다. 두 번째로, 바탕 상태 집합을 구성할 때, 해밀토니안 행렬의 원소들을 순람표에 기록하였다. 그럼으로써, 혼돈 대각화 과정에서 해밀토니안 행렬의 원소들을 반복적으로 계산하는 것을 피했다. 세 번째로, 바탕 상태 집합에 대칭성 연산을 적용함으로써 원 바탕 상태 집합이 대칭성 연산의 고유벡터들로 구성된 새로운 바탕 상태 집합으로 변환되었다. 기저 상태 파동함수는 대칭적인 바탕상태 (결합상태) 집합으로부터 구성되었다. 결과로서, 대칭성 연산을 이용함으로써, 혼돈 대각화 계산에 쓰이는 바탕상태의 총 개수가 50%까지 감소되었다.

First-principles calculations based on spin density functional theory are performed to study the spin-resolved electronic properties of AlN doped with a Cu concentration of 6.25%-18.75%. The ferromagnetic state is more energetically favorable state than the antiferromagnetic state or the nonmagnetic state. For $Al_{0.9375}Cu_{0.0625}N$, a global magnetic moment of 1.26 mB per supercell, with a localized magnetic moment of 0.75 $m_B$ per Cu atom is found. The magnetic moment is reduced due to an increase in the number of Cu atoms occupying adjacent cation lattice position. For $Al_{0.8125}Cu_{0.1875}N$, the magnetism of the supercell disappears by the interaction of the neighboring Cu atoms. The nonmagnetic to ferromagnetic phase transition is found to occur at this Cu concentration. The range of concentrations that are spin-polarized should be restricted within very narrow.

Even a pure bulk Fe has a complicated magnetic phase and its magnetism is still needed to be clarified. In this study we investigated the magnetism of bcc and fcc bulk Fe with total energy calculations as functions of atomic volume. The full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method was adopted within a generalized gradient approximation. The ground state of bulk Fe is confirmed to be of ferromagnetic (FM) bcc. For fcc structured Fe an antiferromagnetic (AFM) state is more stable compared to FM states which exist as low spin and high spin states. The stable AFM states were found to accompany a tetragonal distortion, while the FM states remained in a cubic symmetry. At an expanded lattice constant a high spin FM state was calculated to be able to be stabilized with significant enhanced magnetic moment compared to the value of the ground state, bcc FM.
