A variable length linear trap operating between 20-1000 Hz under standard temperature and pressure conditions is reported. We simulated and observed various kinds of stable patterns: linear strings, planar zig-zag and volume structures. The interparticle distances depend on the trapped particle number and trap length. Our setup allows trapped microparticle diagnosis by various methods.
We report an electron paramagnetic resonance investigation of the grain size effects on the polaron transport in the paramagnetic regime of nanosized La_{2/3} Ca_{1/3}MnO_3 manganites. The temperature dependences of the EPR integral intensity were analyzed in terms of spin-spin exchange interaction and small polaron hopping scenarios. The polaron activation energy decreases with the reduction of the grain size. A discussion is given concerning the factors which could explain the observed change.
