The Study of Temperature-Dependent Magnetic Properties Variation in CoCr2O4 Nanoparticles with (y = 0.8) and Without Coating Concentration of Non-Magnetic (SiO2)y

Abstract The present study investigates the temperature-dependent magnetic (MT) properties of CoCr2O4/(SiO2)y (y = 0 and 0.8) nanoparticles. Nanoparticles were synthesised by using the conventional sol–gel technique. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) method confirmed the normal spinel structure of CoCr2O4 nanoparticles. The main peak analysis of the XRD pattern using Debye–Scherrer’s formula probes the mean crystallite sizes for coated and uncoated nanoparticles, and the sizes based on which the probes have been carried out amount to 19 nm and 28 nm, respectively. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) image showed the non-spherical shape of these nanoparticles. Field-cooled (FC) and zero field-cooled (ZFC) MT plots were taken by using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. Pure CoCr2O4 nanoparticles showed the ferrimagnetic transition at Curie temperature (Tc = 99 K) on an applied field (H) of 50 Oe. Tc decreased up to 95 K with the increase in 80% SiO2 concentration in CoCr2O4 nanoparticles. For pure samples, conical spiral temperature (TS) and lock-in transition temperature (TL) remain unchanged with increasing magnetic field because of strong spin–lattice coupling. However, for 80% SiO2 impurity, the decrease in Tc was attributed to the reduction in surface disorder with a minor decline in TS and TL. The Ms declined with a decrease in temperature because of the existence of stiffed/strong conical spin-spiral and lock-in states in pure CoCr2O4 nanoparticles, while nanoparticles with 80% coating SiO2 concentration showed abnormal behavior. The coercivity increases with a decrease in temperature due to a decrease in thermal fluctuations at low temperatures for both samples. The fitting of coercivity (Hc) versus temperature plot by using Kneller’s law has given the values of coercivity constant (α) and coercivity at average blocking temperature (TB) for both samples, which are α = 0.54, TB = 75 K and α = 1.59, TB = 81 K, respectively. Hence, the increase in the concentration of SiO2 decreased nanoparticles size and surface disorder in CoCr2O4 nanoparticles while enhancing Ms below spin-spiral state ordering.

Analyzer-to-Analyzer Variations in Assaying Ultralow Concentrated Biomarkers Associated with Neurodegenerative Diseases Using Immunomagnetic Reduction.

By utilizing a high-temperature superconducting quantum interference device (high-Tc SQUID) magnetometer, an alternating current (AC) magnetosusceptometer, referred to as an analyzer, was developed for ultrasensitive immunoassays. The analyzer has been applied to assay biomarkers in human plasma associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). The involved assay methodology is the so-called immunomagnetic reduction (IMR). Such an analyzer has been approved for clinical use in Taiwan and Europe. The mass production of the analyzer is needed for clinical utilities. The issue of exploring analyzer-to-analyzer variations in the performances becomes critical. Unfortunately, there is no standard characterization to determine the variations in performances among analyzers. In this study, key characterizations, such as output signal stability, signal-to-noise ratio, measured concentrations of a control sample, etc., are proposed. In total, three analyzers are characterized in this work. The detected biomarkers include amyloid peptides, total tau protein, phosphorylated tau protein, and α-synuclein protein for AD and PD. Through one-way ANOVA for any of the characterizations among the three analyzers, it was found that there was no significant difference in any of these characterizations among the analyzers (p > 0.05). Furthermore, the three analyzers are applied to assay biomolecules for AD and PD in reference samples. High correlations (r > 0.8) in measured concentrations of any of these biomarkers in reference samples were obtained among the three analyzers. The results demonstrate that the proposed characterizations are feasible for achieving consistent performance among high-Tc SQUID-based AC magnetosusceptometers for assaying biomolecules.

Enhanced Magnetic Cooling through Tailoring the Size-Dependent Magnetocaloric Effect of Iron Nanoparticles Embedded in Titanium Nitride Thin Films

The magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in iron (Fe) nanoparticles incorporated within a titanium nitride (TiN) thin-film matrix grown using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is investigated in this study. The study demonstrates the ability to control the entropy change across the magnetic phase transition by varying the size of the Fe nanoparticles. The structural characterization carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning transmission electron (TEM) showed that TiN films are (111) textured, while the Fe-particles are mostly spherical in shapes, are single-crystalline, and have a coherent structure with the surrounding TiN thin-film matrix. The TiN thin-film matrix was chosen as a spacer layer since it is nonmagnetic, is highly corrosion-resistive, and can serve as an excellent conduit for extracting heat due to its high thermal conductivity (11 W/m K). The magnetic properties of Fe–TiN systems were investigated using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. In-plane magnetic fields were applied to record magnetization versus field (M–H) and magnetization versus temperature (M–T) curves. The results showed that the Fe–TiN heterostructure system exhibits a substantial isothermal entropy change (ΔS) over a wide temperature range, encompassing room temperature to the blocking temperature of the Fe nanoparticles. Using Maxwell’s relation and analyzing magnetization–temperature data under different magnetic fields, quantitative insights into the isothermal entropy change (ΔS) and magnetocaloric effect (MCE) were obtained for the Fe–TiN heterostructure system. The study points out a considerable negative change in ΔS that reaches up to 0.2 J/kg K at 0.2 T and 300 K for the samples with a nanoparticle size on the order of 7 nm. Comparative analysis revealed that Fe nanoparticle samples demonstrate higher refrigeration capacity (RC) in comparison to Fe thin-film multilayer samples, with the RC increasing as the Fe particle size decreases. These findings provide valuable insights into the potential application of Fe–TiN heterostructures in solid-state cooling technologies, highlighting their enhanced magnetocaloric properties.

SQUID current sensors with an integrated thermally actuated input current limiter

The development of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) current sensors with a thermally actuated input current limiter (TCL) integrated into the input circuit of the sensor is presented. The TCL is based on an unshunted Josephson Junction (JJ) series array, around which meanders a galvanically isolated, but tightly, thermally coupled, resistive heater element. By applying a current to the heater, the JJ critical currents can be reduced or completely suppressed, while the other on-chip SQUID circuit elements remain unaffected. The functional parameters of the TCL are determined by direct transport measurements and by static and dynamic flux coupling tests via the input circuit. In liquid helium, a heater power, which reliably suppresses the critical current of the JJ array to zero, of ∼1.5 mW was needed, with the TCL normal state resistance being at 500 Ω. In this configuration, typical TCL switching times of approximately 20 µs were observed in the direct transport measurements. The TCL can be used to temporarily or even permanently disable malfunctioning channels in multichannel SQUID magnetometer systems, when feedback into their otherwise superconducting input circuits is not possible. In doing so, significant signal distortions in neighbouring channels from screening currents in these input circuits are avoided. Furthermore, by completely suppressing and restoring the TCL critical current, dc offset currents in the superconducting input circuits can be prevented. This is relevant, for instance, in SQUID-based spin precession experiments on hyperpolarized noble gases, in which even dc currents of a few µA in the input circuit can lead to significant magnetic field distortions in the adjacent sample region contributing to the transverse spin-spin relaxation rate .

Fast Error Calibration for Three-Axis SQUID Magnetometers Based on Full-Space Rotational and Frequency-Controllable Magnetic Field

In order to overcome the limitations of the traditional error calibration method for three-axis superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometers, this article presents a fast error calibration method for three-axis SQUID magnetometers. In the proposed method, a full-space rotational and frequency-controllable magnetic field with constant total field intensity can be generated by a triaxial Helmholtz coil. Meanwhile, the nonorthogonal error, zero offset error, and proportional coefficient error of the three-axis SQUID magnetometers, which measure the relative value rather than the absolute value, can be accurately solved by an error modeling and ellipsoid fitting theory. Compared with the traditional scalar calibration method, this method replaces the rotation of Dewar and three-axis SQUID magnetometers with a rotating magnetic field, thus avoiding the interference and influence of motion. Compared with the traditional vector calibration method, this method does not need to ensure the alignment between the three-axis SQUID magnetometers and triaxial Helmholtz coil. Moreover, the interference of low-frequency magnetic field can be suppressed by shortening the period of rotating magnetic field. Simulation and experiments prove the effectiveness of this method. After calibration by the proposed method, the root-mean-square error is reduced to 0.414 from 138.411 nT in the electromagnetic shielding room. Repetitive and comparative experiments with the traditional method in field also prove the superiority and stability of the proposed method.

Error Calibration for Crosstalk of SQUIDs in Full Tensor Magnetic Gradiometer Based on Moore–Penrose Inverse and Helmholtz Coil

In order to calibrate crosstalk error between superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometers in a multichannel SQUID system, we propose an innovative error calibration method for crosstalk of SQUID magnetometers based on the Moore–Penrose inverse method and Helmholtz coil in this article and successfully apply it to an eight-channel SQUID magnetometers based full tensor magnetic gradiometer (FTMG). We first analyze the causes of crosstalk through working principle of the SQUID readout circuit and build the crosstalk error model of the eight-channel FTMG. Then, we introduce the solution method of 56 crosstalk coefficients based on the Moore–Penrose inverse method and the construction method of matrix needed for solution based on Helmholtz coil. The effect of nonuniformity of Helmholtz coil on the calibration of crosstalk is analyzed and calculated. The effectiveness of the proposed method is proved by repetitive simulation and comparative experiments. Compared with the traditional direct measurement method, this method has the advantage of high efficiency, and the more the channels of SQUID, the more obvious is the superiority.

Highly Sensitive Tunable Magnetometer Based on Superconducting Quantum Interference Device

In the present article, experimental results regarding fully integrated superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUID), including a circuit to tune and optimize the main sensor device characteristics, are reported. We show the possibility of modifying the critical current of a SQUID magnetometer in liquid helium by means of a suitable heating circuit. This allows us to improve the characteristics of the SQUID sensor and in particular to optimize the voltage-magnetic flux characteristic and the relative transfer factor (responsivity) and consequently to also improve the flux and magnetic field noise. It is also possible to reset the SQUID sensor in case of entrapment of magnetic flux, avoiding taking it out of the helium bath. These results are very useful in view of most SQUID applications such as those requiring large multichannel systems in which it is desirable to optimize and eventually reset the magnetic sensors in a simple and effective way.

超伝導量子干渉素子を用いた高圧力下磁気測定

In this article, recent advances in the magnetic measurements under high pressures of above 10 GPa using superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) were reviewed. SQUID is a magnetic device with high sensitivity, while it has a problem of drift in output voltage such that the offset mechanism should work to pick up a signal of targeted material. We review the experimental approaches using two types of apparatus; (1) sample transport method and AC magnetic field method by using a commercial SQUID magnetometer and (2) vibrating coil method by using a hand-made SQUID magnetometer.

Observing the orbital angular momentum of Fe and Co in chiral magnet Fe0.75Co0.25Si using soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism

The intermetallic compound Fe1−xCoxSi has a helical magnetic order for 0.05<x<0.8, whereas its orbital angular momentum contributing to the occurrence of a Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction has not yet been verified. We applied soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy on the Fe L2,3 and Co L2,3 edges below Tc for Fe0.75Co0.25Si such that their orbital magnetic moments morb were evaluated independently. The dichroic signals provide direct experimental evidence that morb for both Fe and Co is coupled in a parallel manner with each spin counterpart mspin. The ratio of morb to mspin is independently estimated as morb/mspin∼3% for Fe and 9% for Co. By comparing the average of the two mspin values with the saturated magnetization using a commercial superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer, the hole number in the d bands for both Fe and Co is roughly estimated as approximately 1.5. This suggests that Fe and Co should be arranged closely for stabilizing the ferromagnetic moments.

Performance Analysis of Optically Pumped 4He Magnetometers vs. Conventional SQUIDs: From Adult to Infant Head Models.

Optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) are new, room-temperature alternatives to superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) for measuring the brain’s magnetic fields. The most used OPM in MagnetoEncephaloGraphy (MEG) are based on alkali atoms operating in the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) regime. These sensors do not require cooling but have to be heated. Another kind of OPM, based on the parametric resonance of 4He atoms are operated at room temperature, suppressing the heat dissipation issue. They also have an advantageous bandwidth and dynamic range more suitable for MEG recordings. We quantitatively assessed the improvement (relative to a SQUID magnetometers array) in recording the magnetic field with a wearable 4He OPM-MEG system through data simulations. The OPM array and magnetoencephalography forward models were based on anatomical MRI data from an adult, a nine-year-old child, and 10 infants aged between one month and two years. Our simulations showed that a 4He OPMs array offers markedly better spatial specificity than a SQUID magnetometers array in various key performance areas (e.g., signal power, information content, and spatial resolution). Our results are also discussed regarding previous simulation results obtained for alkali OPM.

Determination of the number of radiation induced alanine radicals by measuring the magnetic moment using SQUID magnetometer

This study proposes a technique for alanine dosimetry using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. Conventional measurements performed using an electron spin resonance spectrometer typically detect the relative amount of stable radicals generated in irradiated alanine using a magnetic field and microwaves. The SQUID magnetometer uses a magnetic field and a pickup coil to measure the total magnetic moment of stable alanine radicals. In this study, we demonstrate the principle of the alanine/SQUID measurement system. SQUID successfully detected the alanine radical at 4.2 K, and the reproducibility test showed that the relative standard deviation were 0.13 % and 0.10 % at the minimum value and averaged value in the measurement with different angles after 11 repetitions. This study shows that calibration curves can be constructed between 0.3 and 101 kGy and that the magnetic moment of alanine radicals can be measured in that dose range. The magnetic moments corresponding to the dose range of the calibration curve were 6.7×10−3 to 1.1×10−1μA⋅m2⋅mg−1. The number of radicals in alanine pellet induced by 101 kGy irradiation was 1.91×1022kg−1, which was determined by measuring the magnetic moment in the range of 80 K–300 K. Radiation chemical yield (G-value) of the alanine derived from the measured radical number was 0.31 μmol⋅J−1.

Calibration of SQUID Magnetometers in Multichannel MCG System Based on Bi-Planar Coil

In a practical multichannel magnetocardiography (MCG) system based on superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometers, the Tesla/Volt coefficient must be precisely calibrated for accurate analysis of heart diseases. In this article, we utilize the biplanar coil to calibrate the SQUID magnetometers in an MCG system for the first time. The coil design theory is discussed in detail, including the target-field theory and the Tikhonov regularization method. Also, the coil winding patterns can be obtained after discretization of the stream function, which is related to the current density. By defining the parameter of calibration uncertainty, the performance of the biplanar coil is analyzed and compared with a rectangular Helmholtz coil based on the COMSOL simulation method and experimental measurement. The measurement results are well in coincidence with the simulation ones, indicating that the biplanar coil has remarkable advantages over the Helmholtz coil. Also, Tesla/Volt coefficient calibrations of four SQUID magnetometers in an MCG system are conducted inside a magnetically shielded room (MSR) depending on these two coils. The final results show the superiority of the biplanar coil method in MCG system calibration.

Evaluation of Self-Field Effects in Magnetometers Based on Meander-Shaped Arrays of Josephson Junctions or SQUIDs Connected in Series.

Arrays of superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) are highly sensitive magnetometers that can operate without a flux-locked loop, as opposed to single SQUID magnetometers. They have no source of ambiguity and benefit from a larger bandwidth. They can be used to measure absolute magnetic fields with a dynamic range scaling as the number of SQUIDs they contain. A very common arrangement for a series array of SQUIDs is with meanders as it uses the substrate area efficiently. As for most layouts with long arrays, this layout breaks the symmetry required for the elimination of adverse self-field effects. We investigate the scaling behavior of series arrays of SQUIDs, taking into account the self-field generated by the bias current flowing along the meander. We propose a design for the partial compensation of this self-field. In addition, we provide a comparison with the case of series arrays of long Josephson junctions, using the Fraunhofer pattern for applications in magnetometry. We find that compensation is required for arrays of the larger size and that, depending on the technology, arrays of long Josephson junctions may have better performance than arrays of SQUIDs.

Determining the temperature-dependent London penetration depth in HTS thin films and its effect on SQUID performance

The optimum design of high-sensitivity Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) and other devices based on thin high-temperature superconductor (HTS) films requires accurate inductance modeling. This needs the London penetration depth λ to be well defined, not only at 77 K, but also for any operating temperature, given the increasingly widespread use of miniature low-noise single-stage cryocoolers. Temperature significantly affects all inductances in any active superconducting device, and cooling below 77 K can greatly improve device performance; however, accurate data for the temperature dependence of inductance and λ(T) for HTS devices are largely missing in the literature. We report here inductance measurements on a set of 20 different thin-film YBa2Cu3O7−x SQUIDs at 77 K with thickness t = 220 or 113 nm. By combining experimental data and inductance modeling, we find an average penetration depth λ(77)=391 nm at 77 K, which was independent of t. Using the same methods, we derive an empirical expression for λ(T) for a further three SQUIDs measured on a cryocooler from 50 to 79 K. Our measured value of λ(77) and our inductance extraction procedures were then used to estimate the inductances and the effective areas of directly coupled SQUID magnetometers with large washer-style pickup loops. The latter agrees better than 7% with experimentally measured values, validating our measured value of λ(77) and our inductance extraction methods.

Preparation, Structure Determination, and Electrochemical Properties of 4,5‐Dialkylbenzo[1,2‐d:4,5‐d’]bis[1,2,3]triselenoles and Their Singlet and Triplet‐State Dications

Abstract4,8‐Dialkylbenzo[1,2‐d:4,5‐d’]bis[1,2,3]triselenoles [alkyl=Et, Bu, and Oc (C8H17)] were first prepared and treated with concentrated sulfuric acid‐d2 to generate benzobistriselenole dications, which were determined by NMR spectroscopy. The oxidation of dioctylbenzobistriselenole with three equivalents of single‐electron oxidizing reagent (NOSbF6) produced the corresponding dication.2SbF6−, and the salt was isolated into a stable form. The ESR spectra of the dications measured in concentrated sulfuric acid in the range of room temperature and −196 °C were observed as split peaks similar to that of solid state dication.2SbF6−. Magnetic susceptibility of the dication.2SbF6− was determined by a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer, which showed the salt is diamagnetic. The optimized structures and the total energy of the singlet‐ and triplet‐state benzobistriselenole dications were calculated using the density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP6‐311G**(d,p) level. The results revealed that the structures of the singlet‐ and triplet‐state dications calculated have a completely planar forms and the triplet‐state dication is slightly more stable than the singlet‐state one in acetonitrile using a polarizable continuum model (PCM).

Polydopamine and silica nanoparticles magnetic solid phase extraction coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to determine phenolic acids and flavonoids in fruit wine.

Magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) have been widely applied in a variety of sample preparation techniques. Herein, Fe3O4@pDA as the sorbents for MSPE, were developed for the determination of phenolic acids and flavonoids in fruit wine samples in combination with LC-MS/MS. The Fe3O4@pDA were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Superconducting Quantum Interference Device Magnetometer (SQUID) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in detail. In the present study, a new, rapid, and efficient MSPE by LC-MS/MS was established for the extraction and sensitive detection of phenolic acids and flavonoids. Under the optimized condition of extraction procedure including the pH value of 4.0, 10 mg of Fe3O4@pDA, 60 s extraction time, and 600 μL desorption solvent volume, good responses were investigated. Results showed that the limits of detection (S/N = 3) for phenolic acids and flavonoids were in the range of 0.01–0.29 ng/ mL. The correlation coefficients of all analytes were more than 0.9985. The method was satisfactorily used for the detection of eleven analytes, and the recoveries of these targets for the two spiked wines (white grape wine and litchi wine) ranged from 80.03 to 116.68% and from 84.00 to 116.1%, respectively.

First Search for Dyons with the Full MoEDAL Trapping Detector in 13TeV pp Collisions.

The MoEDAL trapping detector consists of approximately 800kg of aluminum volumes. It was exposed during run 2 of the LHC program to 6.46 fb^{-1} of 13TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHCb interaction point. Evidence for dyons (particles with electric and magnetic charge) captured in the trapping detector was sought by passing the aluminum volumes comprising the detector through a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer. The presence of a trapped dyon would be signaled by a persistent current induced in the SQUID magnetometer. On the basis of a Drell-Yan production model, we exclude dyons with a magnetic charge ranging up to five Dirac charges (5g_{D}) and an electric charge up to 200 times the fundamental electric charge for mass limits in the range 870-3120GeV and also monopoles with magnetic charge up to and including 5g_{D} with mass limits in the range 870-2040GeV.

Biomagnetism of tumor in rats with Guerin's carcinoma after injection of ferromagnetic nanocomposite (Ferroplat): contactless measurement.

In order to develop fundamentally new technologies for non-invasive and safer diagnosis of cancer, we aimed to detect non-contact magnetic signals from a malignant tumor in animals treated or not-treated with the ferromagnetic nanocomposite Ferroplat. Guerin's carcinoma was used as a model of tumor growth. The biomagnetism of the tumor was evaluated in the dynamics of its growth. Ten days after tumor transplantation, Ferroplat was administered intravenously to half of the animals with the tumor and to half of the control animals. The magnitude of the magnetic signals was determined 1h and every two days after administration of the nanocomposite using a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device magnetometer of the original design. We have found that the magnetic signals coming from the tumor are significantly higher compared to control tumor-free animals. Intravenous administration of a ferromagnetic nanocomposite (Ferroplat: Fe3O4+ cisplatinum) led to a significant increase of the magnetic signal, especially in the tumor tissue, and inhibition of Guerin's carcinoma growth. Ferromagnetic nanoparticles (32.7nm) are retained in malignant cells for a longer time than in normal ones. Tumor cells accumulate iron nanoparticles more intensively than normal ones. Nanocomposite Ferroplat can be used for a targeted delivery of cisplatin to malignant cells.

Rheology-Assisted Microstructure Control for Printing Magnetic Composites-Material and Process Development.

Magnetic composites play a significant role in various electrical and electronic devices. Properties of such magnetic composites depend on the particle microstructural distribution within the polymer matrix. In this study, a methodology to manufacture magnetic composites with isotropic and anisotropic particle distribution was introduced using engineered material formulations and manufacturing methods. An in-house developed material jetting 3D printer with particle alignment capability was utilized to dispense a UV curable resin formulation to the desired computer aided design (CAD) geometry. Formulations engineered using additives enabled controlling the rheological properties and the microstructure at different manufacturing process stages. Incorporating rheological additives rendered the formulation with thixotropic properties suitable for material jetting processes. Particle alignment was accomplished using a magnetic field generated using a pair of permanent magnets. Microstructure control in printed composites was observed to depend on both the developed material formulations and the manufacturing process. The rheological behavior of filler-modified polymers was characterized using rheometry, and the formulation properties were derived using mathematical models. Experimental observations were correlated with the observed mechanical behavior changes in the polymers. It was additionally observed that higher additive content controlled particle aggregation but reduced the degree of particle alignment in polymers. Directionality analysis of optical micrographs was utilized as a tool to quantify the degree of filler orientation in printed composites. Characterization of in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic properties using a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer exhibited enhanced magnetic characteristics along the direction of field structuring. Results expressed in this fundamental research serve as building blocks to construct magnetic composites through material jetting-based additive manufacturing processes.
