The magnetic order of a manganese vanadate system with two-dimensional striped triangular lattice [PDF]
Results of magnetization and neutron diffraction measurements of the manganese vanadate system Mn$_5$(VO$_4$)$_2$(OH)$_4$ are reported. The crystal structure of this compound contains triangular [Mn$_3$O$_{13}$] building blocks that produce two-dimensional Mn$^{2+}$ magnetic networks with striped triangular topologies.

Direct observation of electron doping in La0.7Ce0.3MnO3 using x-ray absorption spectroscopy
We report on a X-ray absorption spectroscopic (XAS) study on a thin film of La0.7Ce0.3MnO3, a manganite which was previously only speculated to be an electron doped system.

Field-Induced Magnetization Steps in Intermetallic Compounds and Manganese Oxides: The Martensitic Scenario [PDF]
Field-induced magnetization jumps with similar characteristics are observed at low temperature for the intermetallic germanide Gd5Ge4and the mixed-valent manganite Pr0.6Ca0.4Mn0.96Ga0.04O3. We report that the field location -and even the existence- of these jumps depends critically on the magnetic field sweep rate used to record the data.

Nitrogen removal in marine environments: recent findings and future research challenges [PDF]
Respiratory reduction of nitrate (denitrification) is recognized as the most important process converting biologically available (fixed) nitrogen to N2. In current N cycle models, a major proportion of global marine denitrification (50–70%) is assumed to

Magnetic properties, chemical and phase composition of thin manganese silicide films fabricated by pulsed laser deposition [PDF]
Manganese silicide (MnxSiy) thin films with Mn content (CMn) varied from 24 at. % to 52 at. % were grown on i-GaAs (100) substrates. Chemical, phase composition and room temperature magnetic properties of the films were investigated. It was demonstrated that manganese silicide films revealing ferromagnetic properties are multiphase systems. The phases,

Crystal Chemistry and Magnetic Properties of Manganese Zinc Alloy "YMn2Zn20" Comprising a Mn Pyrochlore Lattice [PDF]
The chemical composition, crystal structure, and magnetic properties of a manganese zinc alloy with an ideal composition of YMn2Zn20, which comprises a pyrochlore lattice made of Mn atoms, are reported. The compound is stable only when In or Al is partially substituted for Zn. We have determined the actual chemical formula as YMn2+dZn20-x-dMx, with M =

Intermediate Valence Model for the Colossal Magnetoresistance in Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7}
The colossal magnetoresistance exhibited by Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7} is an interesting phenomenon, as it is very similar to that found in perovskite manganese oxides although the compound differs both in its crystalline structure and electronic properties from ...

Pressure-tuning of the electron-phonon coupling: the insulator to metal transition in manganites [PDF]
A comprehensive understanding of the physical origin of the unique magnetic and transport properties of A_(1-x)A'^xMnO_3 manganites (A = trivalent rare-earth and A' = divalent alkali-earth metal) is still far from being achieved.
