The doping of hole carriers via (Ga,Mn) substitution also prohibits electron doping. To overcome these difficulties, Masek et al. theoretically proposed systems based on a I-II-V semiconductor LiZnAs, where isovalent (Zn,Mn) substitution is decoupled from carrier doping with excess/deficient Li concentrations. Here we show successful synthesis of Li(Zn
Mn
)As in bulk materials. We reported that ferromagnetism with a critical temperature of up to 50 K is observed in nominally Li-excess compounds, which have p-type carriers.

Times Cited Count:0 Percentile:0.00(Physics, Condensed Matter)PuCoGa has attracted much interest because it is the first Pu-based superconductor, having an order of magnitude higher transition temperature
K than the isostructural heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn
(
K). The mechanism of the superconductivity in PuCoGa
is still under investigation, though recent experiments and theory suggest a magnetic origin. A unique aspect of this compound is the self-irradiation damage because Pu (
Pu,
= 24,000 years) creates lattice defects which scatter electrons and, hence, break superconducting pairs. In order to elucidate the magnitude and temperature dependence of the magnetic penetration depth
, we have performed
SR measurements in the same PuCoGa
single crystals after 25 and 400 days of aging. We found that
decreased from 18.5K to 15K for the aged sample, yet a quasi-linear temperature dependence was found for the low-temperature
in both the fresh and aged sample, consistent with
-wave pairing symmetry. The magnitude of the muon spin relaxation rate
in the aged sample,
, where
and
are the superfluid density and the effective mass, respectively, is reduced by about 70% compared to fresh sample. This indicates that the scattering from self-irradiation induced defects is not in the limit of the conventional Abrikosov-Gor'kov pair-breaking theory, but rather in the limit of short coherence length (about 2nm in PuCoGa
) superconductivity.

just above the phase transition. At high applied fields the relaxation time is proportional to field. At low fields the relaxation rate increases markedly as the freezing temperature is approached. This behavior is consistent with the very long autocorrelation function cutoff time.

Wideband low-output-impedance RF system for the second harmonic cavity in the ISIS synchrotron has been developed by the collaboration between ANL (US), KEK (Japan) and RAL (UK). Low output impedance is realized by the feedback from plate to grid of the final triode amplifier, resulting in less than 30 ohms over a wide frequency range of 2.7 - 6.2 MHz. The vacuum tubes in the driver and final stages are both operated in class A. High power test was performed with a ferrite-loaded second harmonic cavity, where the bias current was swept at 50 Hz repetition rate. The maximum voltage of 12 kV peak per accelerating gap was obtained stably at earlier period of an acceleration cycle. A beam test with this system is planned at the ISIS synchrotron soon.

The superconductor PuCoGa possesses a relatively high critical temperature (T
= 18.5 K), a moderate mass enhancement (Sommerfeld coefficient
80 mJ/mol-K
and exhibits behavior consistent with spin-fluctuation-induced d-wave superconductivity. It is also radioactive, with its dominant radioisotope
Pu having a half-life of 2.4
10
yrs. We report
SR measurements of the temperature and field dependence of the magnetic field penetration depth
(T,H) in a 400 day-old sample of PuCoGa
(T
= 15 K), and compare these results to data obtained on the same sample approximately one year earlier. In 600 Oe applied field both measurements show a linear low-temperature behavior for
(T) -
(0) = bT for T/T
0.5 with the same coefficient b. The magnitude of
(0) in the aged sample has increased by a factor of about 1.8. The results are discussed in terms of the effects of radiation damage on the postulated d-wave superconducting order parameter.
