  • The effects of titanium ions on the crystallographic and spin-rotation transitions in iron sulfide have been examined by M$\"{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy in the temperature range of 78 to 600 K. It is noted that the titanium impurity of $Ti_{0.02}Fe_{0.98}S$ affects both the crystallographic and spin-rotation transitions of the iron sulfide. 2% impurity of $Ti^{2+}$ in FeS causes the increase in the difference between the spin rotation and ${\alpha}$ transition temperature by as much as 10 K compared with that for FeS. Both 1c and 2c structures coexist in the range between the ${\alpha}$ transition temperature and approximately 26 K, with a smaller hyperfine field corresponding to the 1c structure. The spin-rotation temperature for $Ti_{0.02}Fe_{0.98}S$ was measured to be 365 K, which is 10 K lower than the ${\alpha}$ transition temperature. By the 2% impurity of $Ti^{2+}$ in FeS the N$\'{e}$el temperature appreciably is not affected.

  • Semiconductors with ferromagnetism at room temperature has been actively searched for in recent years; a prospect of devices using both charge and spin continuously gives impetus to the activities. Transition metal doped oxide materials have been of particular interest. Co substituted ZnO [1] and TiO$_2$ [2] thin films, for example, were reported to show ferromagnetic properties at room temperature. However, various studies do not seem to converge on a definite picture [3,4,5]. The issue is rather fundamental: whether a system shows ferromagnetic properties at all, and in case it does, whether the system possesses a close coupling between magnetism and transport properties. In this talk, we shall assess the current status of transition metal doped oxide materials as room temperature ferromagnetic semiconductors.

  • We have investigated electronic structuresof antiferromagnetic YBaCo_2O_5 using the local spin-density approximation (LSDA) + U method. The charge and orbital ordered insulating ground state is correctly obtained with the strong on-site Coulomb interaction. Co^{2+} and Co^{3+} ions are found to be in the high spin (HS) and intermediate spin (IS) state, respectively. The tetragonal to orthorhombic structural transition is responsible for the ordering phenomena and the spin states of Co ions. The large contribution of the orbital moment to the total magnetic moment indicates that the effect of the spin-orbit coupling is very important in YBaCo_2O_5.

  • We have studied magnetic structure and magnetic anisotropy energy of cubic transition metal mono-oxide cluster FeO and MnO using OpenMX method based on density functional method. The calculation results show that the antiferromagnetic spin arrangement has the lowest energy for FeO and MnO due to the superexchange interactions. The magnetic anisotropy is only found for antiferromagnetically ordered FeO cluster, since occupied electron of 3d down-spin level induces the spin-orbit couplings with <111> directed angular momentum.

  • We examine phase transition of the spin density wave and $\pi$ phase shifted superconductivity in the Fe pnictide superconductors. The phase diagram is described in the plane of the temperature T and the doping x with the combination of Ginzburg-Landau expansion of the free energy near the multi-critical temperature $T_c$ and the self-consistent numerical iterations of the gap equations. The phase separation or coexistence is determined by computing the 4-th order terms of the free energy which is confirmed by the numerical calculations. We can show the phase coexistence when the spin density wave is incommensurate. And the first order phase transition is observed near the boundary between commensurate and incommensurate spin density wave.

  • We investigated thermal behavior of spin-coated films of P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blends by using infraredreflection absorption (IRRAS) spectroscopy and 2D correlation spectroscopy. Based on 2D IRRAS correlation spectra, we could determine the sequence of spectral intensity changes with increasing temperature that PEG band changes first and then a band for crystalline component of P(HB-co-HHx) changes before a band for amorphous component. The intensities of bands for PEG and amorphous P(HB-co-HHx) were changed greatly as PEG weigh % of P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blends increased. Transition temperatures of P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blends were successfully determined by 2D gradient mapping method. The transition temperature of spincoated films of 98/2 and 90/10 P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blends and 80/20 P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blend determined by 2D gradient map are, respectively, about 137.5 and $132.5^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, P(HB-co-HHx)/PEG blends show an additional transition temperature that have been interpreted in terms of different lamellar thicknesses in spin coated films.
