Betts, Albert Migliori (IHRP Funded) Thermal conductivity of Nd0.5Sr0.5MnO3 • 3w technique utilizes a heater fabricated on the sample.

  21. Charge density wave systems in magnetic fields exceeding the Pauli limit. R.D. McDonald, N. Harrison, J. Singleton, A. Bangura, P.A. Goddard, L. Balicas, A.P. Ramires, X. Chi, Fully gapped CDW with finite interchain bandwidth such that both Landau quantization and the Zeeman splitting contribute to the Field dependence of the gap. Magnetoresistance of CDW system Per2Au(mnt)2 at fields exceeding the Pauli limit (B > 37T). In Per2Pt(mnt)2 the competition between localized spin dimerization and the CDW formation gives rise to structure in the field dependence of the gap. CDW gap closes but remains finite due to formation of a field modulated CDW state.

  22. High magnetic field as a bulk microscopic probe of the martensite phase in AuZn P A Goddard, R McDonald, J Singleton, J Lashley. First ever measurement of de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations within a martensitic material. Oscillations measured at 100K - highest temperature dHvA yet observed. Comparison of data with band-structure calculation indicate electronic origin for shape memory effect. Typical oscillations Fermi surface can be traced across the transition, showing evolution of martensite phase. Co-existence of austenite and martensite at low temperature - bulk phase separation shown for the first time. Field dependence of effective Dingle temperature reveals information on the size of low-temperature domains.

  23. Upper critical field in LiTi2O4 Evangelia Moschopoulou (UC Davis) John Singleton, Paul Goddard (NHMFL) LiTi2O4 is an interesting spinel superconductor. But what is 0Hc2? Literature values (by extrapolation) range from 8-35 T! Solution: pulsed-field resistivity at NHMFL-LANL. Successful extraction of 0Hc2versus Tc. Alteration of valence increases Hc2 and Tc. Hc2versus Tc is “BCS-like”. • High-frequency lock-in data (1-10 A); • Fields >33 T needed to separate normal-state resistivity from dissipative vortex motion (humps, dips) in this granular superconductor.
