Hysteresis and Anisotropic Magnetoresistance in Antiferromagnetic Nd2−xCexCuO4Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_{4}

The out-of-plane resistivity ($\rho_c$) and magnetoresistivity (MR) are studied in antiferromangetic (AF) $Nd_{2-x}Ce_xCuO_{4}$ single crystals, which have three types of noncollinear antiferromangetic spin structures. The apparent signatures are observed in $\rho_c(T)$ measured at the zero-field and 14 T at the spin structure transitions, giving a definite evidence for the itinerant electrons directly coupled to the localized spins. One of striking feature is an anisotropy of the MR with a fourfold symmetry upon rotating the external field (B) within ab plane in the different phases, while twofold symmetry at spin reorientation transition temperatures. The intriguing thermal hysteresis in $\rho_c(T,B)$ and magnetic hysteresis in MR are observed at spin reorientation transition temperatures.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Bound States and Critical Behavior of the Yukawa Potential

We investigate the bound states of the Yukawa potential $V(r)=-\lambda \exp(-\alpha r)/ r$, using different algorithms: solving the Schr\"odinger equation numerically and our Monte Carlo Hamiltonian approach. There is a critical $\alpha=\alpha_C$, above which no bound state exists. We study the relation between $\alpha_C$ and $\lambda$ for various angular momentum quantum number $l$, and find in atomic units, $\alpha_{C}(l)= \lambda [A_{1} \exp(-l/ B_{1})+ A_{2} \exp(-l/ B_{2})]$, with $A_1=1.020(18)$, $B_1=0.443(14)$, $A_2=0.170(17)$, and $B_2=2.490(180)$.Comment: 15 pages, 12 figures, 5 tables.

Dimensional crossover and anomalous magnetoresistivity in single crystals NaxCoO2Na_xCoO_2

The in-plane ($\rho_{ab}$) and c-axis ($\rho_c$) resistivities, and the magnetoresistivity of single crystals $Na_xCoO_2$ with x = 0.7, 0.5 and 0.3 were studied systematically. $\rho_{ab}(T)$ shows similar temperature dependence between $Na_{0.3}CoO_2$ and $Na_{0.7}CoO_2$, while $\rho_c(T)$ is quite different. A dimensional crossover from two to three occurs with decreasing Na concentration from 0.7 to 0.3. The angular dependence of in-plane magnetoresistivity for 0.5 sample shows a \emph{"d-wave-like"} symmetry at 2K, while the \emph{"p-wave-like"} symmetry at 20 K. These results give an evidence for existence of a \emph{spin ordering orientation} below 20 K turned by external field, like the stripes in cuprates.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure

In-plane ferromagnetism in charge-ordering Na0.55CoO2Na_{0.55}CoO_2

The magnetic and transport properties are systematically studied on the single crystal $Na_{0.55}CoO_2$ with charge ordering and divergency in resistivity below 50 K. A long-range ferromagnetic ordering is observed in susceptibility below 20 K with the magnetic field parallel to Co-O plane, while a negligible behavior is observed with the field perpendicular to the Co-O plane. It definitely gives a direct evidence for the existence of in-plane ferromagnetism below 20 K. The observed magnetoresistance (MR) of 30 % at the field of 6 T at low temperatures indicates an unexpectedly strong spin-charge coupling in triangle lattice systems.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
