Recently, thermal switching has been extensively studied because it is a key component for thermal management in electronic devices. Here, we show a huge magneto-thermal-switching ratio (MTSR) in pure Nb at temperatures lower than its…

This paper reports a newly developed high current transformer-rectifier High-Tc Superconducting (HTS) flux pump switched by dynamic resistance. A quasi-persistent current of over 1.1 kA has been achieved at 77 K using the device, which is…

We report the levitation of a superconducting lead-tin sphere with 100 micrometer diameter (corresponding to a mass of 5.6 micrograms) in a static magnetic trap formed by two coils in an anti-Helmholtz configuration, with adjustable…

Perpendicular MgO-based Magnetic Tunnel Junctions are optimal candidates as building block of Spin Transfer Torque (STT) magnetoresistive memories. However, up to now, the only STT is not enough to achieve switching current density below…

Magnetic fields are a standard tool in the toolbox of every physicist, and are required for the characterization of materials, as well as the polarization of spins in nuclear magnetic resonance or electron paramagnetic resonance…

Magneto-transport measurements were performed on surface conducting hydrogen-terminated diamond (100) hall bars at temperatures between 0.1-5 K in magnetic fields up to 8T.

Current-driven magnetic domain wall motion is demonstrated in the quaternary ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)(As,P) at temperatures well below the ferromagnetic transition temperature, with critical currents of the order 10^5Acm^-2. This…

The current induced magnetization reversal in nanoscale spin valves is a potential alternative to magnetic field switching in magnetic memory devices. We show that the critical switching current can be decreased by an order of magnitude by…

Two-level fluctuations of the magnetization state of pseudo spin-valve pillars Co(10 nm)/Cu(10 nm)/Co(30 nm) embedded in electrodeposited nanowires (~40 nm in diameter, 6000 nm in length) are triggered by spin-polarized currents of 10^7…

We investigate cooling of a vibrational mode of a magnetic quantum dot by a spin-polarized tunneling charge current, exploiting the interaction between the magnetization and the vibration. The spin-polarized charge current polarizes the…

Ferrimagnetic GdCo5-xCux alloys exhibiting the effect of Gd- and 3d-sublattice magnetization compensation at defined temperatures were studied with respect to their use as thermo-reversible permanent magnets (PM). Coercive fields…

We compare magnetoresistances (MR) and switching currents (I_s) at room temperature (295K) and 4.2K for Permalloy/N/Permalloy nanopillars undergoing current-induced magnetization switching (CIMS), with non-magnetic metals N = Cu, Ag, and…

We have used ultracold atoms to characterize the magnetic field near the surface of copper conductors at room temperature carrying currents between 0.045 A and 2 A. In addition to the usual circular field we find an additional, 1000 - 10000…

The critical current densities of MgB2 monofilamentary strands with and without SiC additions were measured at 4.2 K. Additionally, magnetic Jc at B = 1 T was measured from 4.2 K to 40 K. Various heat treatment times and temperatures were…

We describe the design, construction, calibration, and operation of a relatively simple differential capacitive dilatometer suitable for measurements of thermal expansion and magnetostriction from 300 K to below 1 K with a low-temperature…

We report a nonsaturating linear magnetoresistance in charge-compensated bilayer graphene in a temperature range from 1.5 to 150 K. The observed linear magnetoresistance disappears away from charge neutrality ruling out the traditional…

A Kelvinox 400 dilution refrigerator with the ability to load samples onto the mixing chamber from the bottom of the cryostat has been combined with an ultrahigh-vacuum (UHV) deposition chamber equipped with molecular beam sources. The…

Direct measurements of the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in different materials (Gd, Fe48Rh52, Ni43Mn37.9In12.1Co7 and Ni2.07Co0.09Mn0.84Ga) in alternating magnetic fields with frequencies f < 22 Hz and an amplitude deltaH = 6.2 kOe are…

We report design details of the whole assembly of a compact and continuous nuclear demagnetization refrigerator (CNDR) with two PrNi$_5$ nuclear stages, which can keep temperature below 1 mK continuously, and test results of a new thermal…

Strongly correlated insulators, such as Mott or charge-transfer insulators, exhibit a strong temperature dependence in their resistivity. Consequently, self-heating effects can lead to electrothermal instabilities in planar thin film…
