Solved Problems in Electromagnetism for Electronic Collection
Pošta, Petr ; Koupilová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Ledvinka, Tomáš (referee)
This thesis is a follow-up to several bachelor and diploma theses which were dedicated to creating solved problems for Electronic Collection of Solved Problems in Electromagnetism. The first goal of this thesis was to make a short survey about electronic resources in electromagnetism, especially those which contain solved problems and provide open access to their contents. The second goal was to make a small collection of solved problems in this area which would be suitable for undergraduate students and which would fill in chapters with little amount of problems in the Electronic Collection. This Electronic Collection is openly accesible on the website of Department of Physics Education. Total of 30 solved problems have been made in this thesis, including hints, detailed solutions and suitable pictures. Methodical comments are also available for almost all problems.

Theory of spin-dependent transport in magnetic solids
Wagenknecht, David ; Turek, Ilja (advisor) ; Minár, Ján (referee) ; Šipr, Ondřej (referee)
of doctoral thesis Theory of spin-dependent transport in magnetic solids David Wagenknecht Department of Condensed Matter Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University 2019 Theoretical and ab initio description of realistic material behavior is complicated and combinations of various scattering mechanisms or temperature effects are often neglected, although experimental samples contain impurities and modern electronics work at finite temperatures. In order to remove these knowledge gaps, the alloy analogy model is worked out in this thesis and implemented within the fully relativistic tight- binding linear-muffin-tin orbital method with the coherent potential approximation. This first-principles framework is shown to be robust and computationally efficient and, consequently, employed to investigate bulk solids and their spintronic applications. Unified effect of phonons, magnons, and alloying gives agreement with literature for temperature-dependent electrical transport (longitudinal and anomalous Hall resistivities) and scattering mechanisms are explained from electronic structures. Moreover, novel data help to identify defects in real samples and experimentally hardly accessible quantities are presented, such as spin polarization of electrical current. Calculated results for both zero...

Kooperativní jevy v cerových sloučeninách na hranici magnetismu
Moudřík, Jan ; Prokleška, Jan (advisor) ; Javorský, Pavel (referee)
This work reports on physical properties of a novel CeCo0.715Si2.285 compound. The compound crystallizes in the I-4m2 space group structure with extremely elongated unit cell (a = 4.13˚A , c = 32.84˚A) containing BaAl4 structural patterns. In zero magnetic field it orders antiferromagnetically at TN = 10.0K. Under application of magnetic field along the c-axis it manifests numerous magnetic transitions in small fields (B < 0.5T), resembling the so-called 'devil's staircase' behaviour (e.g. CeSb, CeCoGe3). The magnetization is almost constant from 1T up to 45T for H||c but considerably reduced (0.3µB/Ce) with respect to the free Ce3+ ion. For fields applied along the a-axis typical behaviour for a hard axis in a material with uniaxial anisotropy is observed. The performed single crystal neutron diffraction experiment did not allow complete determination of magnetic structure. 1

Axial magnetic bearing as a passive vibration damper
Polák, Robert ; Marada, Tomáš (referee) ; Pruša, Radomír (advisor)
The aim of the bachelor thesis is to design a mathematical model describing the damping effects of a prototype passive axial magnetic bearing. The prototype consists of three permanent axial magnets, the two outer ones are stators and are connected to the base, the middle magnet works as a rotor. Part of the work was a research on the topic of vibration dampers and their mathematical models. An experimental measurement of the dependence of the response of the axial deflection of the rotor on the axial load of the shaft was performed on a prototype bearing. The approach to creating a mathematical model was divided into two parts. First, the geometry of the bearing was simulated using the finite element method programme FEMM and the dependence of the force acting on the rotor magnet as a function of its deflection was determined. In the second part, the permanent magnets were replaced by conductive loops, for which the dependence of the magnitude of the power dissipation on their mutual deflection was compiled by the gradual derivation from the known equations. By connecting these two parts, an equation of motion was created for the middle loop or magnet. Using the Matlab and Simulink programs, this equation was simulated and then the results were compared with experimental measurements. Finally, the measurement and suitability of the mathematical model were evaluated.

Correlated probe and electron microscopy for the study of modern magnetic nanomaterials
Novotný, Ondřej ; Flajšman, Lukáš (referee) ; Pavera, Michal (advisor)
High pressure on the development of new magnetic materials and their miniaturization also emphasizes the development of new analytical techniques. This diploma thesis deals with the development and demonstration of correlated magnetic force and electron microscopy, which is a promising tool for the characterization of magnetic nanomaterials. The first part of this thesis describes the fundamental physics of micromagnetism with a focus on cylindrical nanofibers. The following pages describe optic, probe, electron, and synchrotron methods for mapping the magnetic properties of materials. The next part describes magnetic domain wall motion in cylindrical nanowires performed as a part of a more extensive material study. The last part of the thesis describes the development of correlated magnetic force and electron microscopy on LiteScope device. A production of magnetic probes was designed and successfully tested. Probes were fabricated by focused electron beam-induced deposition from the Co2(CO)8 precursor. Further, the developed correlated microscopy is demonstrated on a multilayer PtCo sample, magnetic cylindrical nanofibers, NiFe vortex structures, and FeRh metamagnetic nano-islands.

Exchange bias in metamagnetic heterostructures
Zadorozhnii, Oleksii ; Schneeweiss, Oldřich (referee) ; Uhlíř, Vojtěch (advisor)
Výměnná anizotropie je zajímavý fyzikální jev vznikající na rozhraní antiferomagnetických (AF) a feromagnetických (FM) materiálů, který již je široce používán v elektronickém průmyslu a magnetickém záznamu. Přestože byl tento jev dlouhou dobu intenzivně studován, jeho přesný mechanizmus zatím nebyl uspokojivě vysvětlen. V této práci je představen přehled studií dokumentujících výměnnou anizotropii v tenkých dvojvrstvách, včetně experimentálních výsledků a teoretických modelů. Experimentální úkoly této diplomové práce zahrnovaly jak výrobu, tak měření různých modelových systémů vykazujících výměnnou anizotropii. Dvojvrstva Fe/FeRh, kde vrstva FeRh prochází fázovou přeměnou z AF fáze na FM fázi při 360 K, poskytuje možnost nastavení parametrů výměnné anizotropie. Dále byly zkoumány účinky výměnné anizotropie a tvarové anizotropie v mikrostrukturách Fe/FeRh. Konečně, přítomnost výměnné anizotropie byla zkoumána mezi FM a AF fází koexistujícími během fázové přeměny v nanodrátech FeRh. Vzorky byly vyrobeny pomocí magnetronového naprašování a elektronové litografie. Všechny prezentované systémy byly analyzovány pomocí magnetooptické Kerrovy mikroskopie. Výměnná anizotropie byla úspěšně nalezena v systému Fe/FeRh, přičemž její velikost byla téměř identická co do rozsahu i orientace s výsledky v literatuře, přestože námi vyrobená dvojvrstva měla horší kvalitu FM-AF rozhraní. Bylo také prokázáno, že v tomto systému existuje tzv. tréninkový efekt (Training effect), což je výrazným důkazem existence výměnné anizotropie. U nanodrátů bylo změřena významná výměnná anizotropie mezi koexistujícími fázemi FM a AF během fázové přeměny.

Hybrid magnetic bearing design
Šindelář, Petr ; Bárta, Jan (referee) ; Rúra, Dávid (advisor)
The thesis deals with the design of a hybrid magnetic bearing. This is an extension of the issue of common bearings in high-speed motors. The work is divided into three parts. A general theory of magnetic bearings is described in the first part. The second part deals with the mathematical description of the bearing. A proposal of specific hybrid magnetic bearing is described in the third part. The bearing for the motor was already designed. It is a 45000rpm motor with a power output of 12 kW. This thesis aims to create a design of hybrid magnetic bearing with magnets to create a permanent magnetic field and coils to regulate forces to stabilize the rotor and limit vibrations. The practical design includes mathematical calculation in Matlab and computer simulation based on the finite element method in ANSYS Maxwell.

Kritické chování v magnetických fázových diagramech uranových sloučenin
Opletal, Petr ; Prokleška, Jan (advisor)
Title: Critical behavior in magnetic phase diagrams of uranium compounds Author: Bc. Petr Opletal Department: Department of Condensed Matter Physics Supervisor: RNDr. Jan Prokleška, Ph.D., Department of Condensed Matter Physics Abstract: This work is focused on study of phase diagrams and related critical effects in the pseudoternary UCo1-xRuxAl compound. Three single crystals of nominal composition UCo0.99Ru0.01Al, UCo0.995Ru0.005Al and UCo0.9975Ru0.0025Al have been prepared by Czochralski method in triarc furnace. Quality of single crystals was checked by EDX analysis, Laue method and XRPD. For UCo0.99Ru0.01Al Curie temperature was determined as TC = 16 K. UCo0.995Ru0.005Al shows transition from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase at TC= 4.5 K and at higher temperatures we observe a metamagnetic transition of first order with a critical field HC = 0.04 T. UCo0.9975Ru0.0025Al is paramagnetic to low temperatures with metamagnetic transition of first order and critical field HC = 0.55 T. Experiments in hydrostatic pressure on UCo0.995Ru0.005Al and UCo0.9975Ru0.0025Al showed decay of ferromagnetism and increase of critical field. This behavior is similar to evolution of magnetism in UCoAl and URhAl in applied hydrostatic pressure. Keywords: UCoAl, URuAl, ferromagnetism, metamagnetism

Nanostructures and Materials for Antiferromagnetic Spintronics
Reichlová, Helena ; Novák, Vít (advisor)
This thesis is focused on two open problems of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spintronics: manipulation of AFM coupled moments and development of new materials combining AFM and semiconductor properties. We present three particular methods enabling AFM moments manipulation. The rst method, based on the exchange spring effect in an AFM/FM double layer, strongly de- pends on the AFM layer thickness and temperature. We systematically vary these two parameters and identify the conditions when AFM moments can be manip- ulated. By the second method, cooling an AFM in a magnetic eld through the critical temperature, we prove the concept of a fully AFM-based (containing no FM) spintronic device. The last studied method is based on current induced effects in nanostructures containing an AFM. By systematic study of samples with and without AFM we demonstrate the ability of AFM moments to absorb a current induced torque. Relying neither on a FM nor on cooling in magnetic eld, this method represents an elegant way of AFM moments manipulation. In the second experimental part new materials for AFM spintronics are discussed, and one representative example, CuMnAs, is studied in detail. Characterization of bulk and epitaxial CuMnAs is presented and rst spintronic functionality is shown. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Optical response of magnetic materials
Wagenknecht, David ; Ostatnický, Tomáš (advisor)
David Wagenknecht: Abstract of a diploma thesis Optical response of magnetic materials, 2014 Magnetooptical properties of anisotropic semiconductors are studied to describe asymmetry of Ga1−xMnxAs, because theoretical calculations predict extraordinary behaviour of reflectivity. Analytical formulae to describe materials with non-diagonal permittivity are derived and they are used for the numerical calculations to describe the optical response of the samples available for the measurement. The transversal Kerr effect is calculated and it exhibits asymmetry in both rotation of the plane of polarization and ellipticity of circularly polarized light due to asymmetry in reflectivity. Moreover, longitudinal and polar magnetization are studied because of the influence on the observability of the phenomena. Results are not only used to discuss conditions, which must be satisfied to prove the asymmetry, but also the actual experimental setup is designed to prepare the measurement. 1
