Development of the magnetic excitations of charge-stripe ordered La2-xSrxNiO4 on doping towards checkerboard charge order

Paul Gregory Freeman

The magnetic excitation spectrums of charge stripe ordered La2-x Sr (x) NiO4 x = 0.45 and x = 0.4 were studied by inelastic neutron scattering. We found the magnetic excitation spectrum of x = 0.45 from the ordered Ni2+ S = 1 spins to match that of checker ...

Design of Magnetic Switchable Device (MSD) and applications in climbing robot

Francesco Mondada, Hannes Bleuler, Michael Bonani, Stéphane Magnenat, Frédéric Rochat, Patrick Schoeneich

A Magnetic Switchable Device (MSD) is a ferromagnetic circuit using permanent magnets where the flux can circulate between different paths when its configuration is changed. This routes or cancels the flux through specific surfaces, and thus turns on or of ...
