5f-electron Magnetism in Intermetallic Uranium Compounds
Vališka, Michal ; Sechovský, Vladimír (advisor) ; Šob, Mojmír (referee) ; Veis, Martin (referee)
Tato práce je zaměřená na studium magnetických vlastností tří r·zných sloučenin na bázi uranu obsahujících 5f elektrony (U4Ru7Ge6, UAu2Si2 a UIrGe). V rámci této práce byly, za pomoci r·zných metod, připraveny vysoce kvalitní krystaly těchto sloučenin. Vlastnosti těchto systém· byly studovány r·znými objemovými meto- dami (magnetizace, měrné teplo, teplotní roztažnost, elektrický transport) a také neu- tronovým a rentgenovým rozptylem při širokém spektru vnějších podmínek (nízká teplota, vysoké magnetické pole, vysoký tlak). Kombinace těchto metod odhalila komplexní chování těchto systém· a pomohla sestrojit jejich magnetické fázové diagramy. První studovanou sloučeninou je feromagnet U4Ru7Ge6vykazující velmi nízkou mag- netokrystalovou anizotropii, která je neočekávaná pro sloučeninu na bázi uranu. To se promítá do izotropní závislosti téměř všech měřených fyzikálních vlastností. Bylo zjištěno, že osa snadné magnetizace se mění v uspořádaném stavu a tento jev je spojen s anomáliemi v teplotní roztažnosti ukazující na možnou rhomboedrickou distorzi. Ta vede k vytvoření dvou odlišných pozic uranu s odlišným magnetickým momentem. Tato před- pově¤ byla potvrzena teoretickými výpočty a pomocí polarizované neutronové difrakce. Rozdíl magnetických moment· na dvou odlišných uranových pozicích je zp·soben...

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

Structure and magnetic properties of f-electron compounds and their hydrides

Title: Structure and magnetic properties of f-electron compounds and their hydrides Author: Silvie Mašková Department: Deparment of Condensed Matter Physics Supervisor: Doc. RNDr. Ladislav Havela, CSc., Deparment of Condensed Matter Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University, Prague, The Czech Republic Abstract: Magnetic properties were studied in several types of actinide- and lanthanide-based ternary compounds. We have shown indirect that anisotropy of compressibility and thermal expansion can be related to the direction of magnetic moments at U-compounds with "soft" directions (where the closest U-U links are) perpendicular to the moments direction. Comparison of U and RE compounds of the 2-2-1 type indicates that contrary to U compounds, RE compounds can absorb much more hydrogen. The involvement of the f-states in metallic bond, which takes place at actinides and not in lanthanides, makes the U-based compounds apparently more stable against hydrogenation. Basic electronic properties were established for ζ -Pu19Os, which is a close analogy to β-Pu, and for its low-temperature variety η -Pu19Os. The results confirm that the volume is not the main parameter driving Pu properties, as β-Pu with intermediate volume is the most strongly correlated Pu phase. Keywords: uranium compounds,...

Title: Variations of actinide magnetism in uranium-base hydrides and other selected systems. Author: Anna Maria Adamska Department / Institute: Department of Condensed Matter Physics Supervisor of the doctoral thesis: Doc. RNDr. Ladislav Havela, CSc., the Department of Condensed Matter Physics Faculty of Mathematics and Physics Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic and Assoc. Prof. Dr. hab. Nhu-Tarnawska Hoa Kim Ngan, Institute of Physics, Pedagogical University, Kraków, Poland. Abstract: Actinide magnetism was studied in three different types of systems. Variations of magnetic properties of UTGe hydrides as a function of hydrogen concentration prove that doping of U intermetallics by interstitial hydrogen leads to stronger magnetic properties, primarily caused by an increase of the inter-uranium separation. Sputter-deposited UFe2+x films, which are derived from the UFe2 Laves phase but have an amorphous structure, exhibit an increase of the Curie temperarture (to more than 400 K) with the Fe excess, which could not be achieved in the bulk. This is understood as a result of the prominent role of the 3d magnetism of Fe. Notoriously weakly magnetic plutonium was studied in the form of the alloy in the ζ-phase, which exists between 35 and 70 % U in Pu. Its susceptibility increases in a comparison to pure...
