Article Abstract

Recently, the possibility of exploiting the phenomenon of spin transition (ST) has been intensively investigated; therefore, it is particularly important to study the behavior of ST under various stimuli. Here, the shape and content of the intermediate phase of ST in Hoffmann-like compounds [Fe(Fpz)M(CN)] (M = Pt, Pd) under external stimuli are studied. For this purpose, magnetic and Raman spectroscopy studies were carried out. In pressure-induced spin transition (PIST), a mixture of high-spin and low-spin states appears, while in temperature-induced spin transition (TIST), a homogeneous state occurs. The first-order ST induced by pressure has a hysteresis but is not abrupt. However, the temperature-induced spin transition at ambient pressure is hysteretic and abrupt. To investigate this difference, we discuss using a thermodynamic model that considers elastic interactions, showing that the slope of the hysteresis loop is related to the appearance of internal pressure, which is related to the difference in sample compressibility under high-spin and low-spin states.

The coupling of lasers plays an important role in a variety of research activities, from generating high-power lasers to investigating out-of-equilibrium coupled systems. This Letter presents our investigations of Hermitian coupling in arrays of lasers, where it is possible to control both the amplitude and phase of the coupling and generate artificial gauge fields. The Hermitian coupling is demonstrated in three laser array geometries: a square array of 100 lasers with controlled laser coupling for obtaining continuous control over the phase-locked state, a triangular array of 130 lasers with controlled chirality of the lasers, and a ring array of eight lasers with a controlled topological charge.

We report the structural, electrical, and magnetic properties of the organic conductor κ-(BEST)Cu(CN) (BEST: bis(ethylenediseleno)-tetrathiafulvalene; abbreviated as κ-BEST-CN), which is isostructural with the quantum spin liquid candidate κ-(ET)Cu(CN) (ET: bis(ethylenedithio)tetrathiafulvalene; abbreviated as κ-ET-CN). Resistivity measurements demonstrate that κ-BEST-CN exhibits semiconducting behavior, governed by the same conducting mechanism as κ-ET-CN. Under a pressure of ∼0.

The 247-keV state in ^{54}Sc, populated in the β decay of ^{54}Ca, is reported here as a nanosecond isomer with a half-life of 26.0(22) ns. The state is interpreted as the 1^{+} member of the πf_{7/2}⊗νf_{5/2} spin-coupled multiplet, which decays to the 3^{+},πf_{7/2}⊗νp_{1/2} ground state.

Quasi-one-dimensional magnets can host an ordered longitudinal spin-density wave state (LSDW) in magnetic field at low temperature, when longitudinal correlations are strengthened by Ising anisotropies. In the S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet YbAlO_{3} this happens via Ising-like interchain interactions. Here, we report the first experimental observation of magnetization plateaux at 1/5 and 1/3 of the saturation value via thermal transport and magnetostriction measurements in YbAlO_{3}.
