We have measured the electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of genuine-organic anion-radical salts [Me-2,6-di-Me-Py](TCNQ)_{2}, [Me-3,5-di-Me-Py](TCNQ)_{2}, [N-Me-OH-Me-Py](TCNQ)_{2}, [N-Et-OH-Me-Py](TCNQ)_{2}, and metal-organic anion-radical salt [Mn-phen_{3}](TCNQ)_{2}·H_{2}O in the temperature range from 2 K to 300 K in the X-band frequency range. A comparison study of the shape of spectra, g-factors and linewidths with respect to the composition and crystal structure of studied compounds is presented. While the genuine-organic anion-radical salts display a typical EPR response originating from TCNQ pairs, the spectra of metal-organic anion-radical salt are dominated by the contribution of transition metal.

In the current paper, electrical transport properties of 25 nm thick Nb films sputtered on the photosensitive semiconductor BiOCl were investigated in the temperature range 7.5 K ≤ T ≤8.5 K. The influence of green (532 nm) and red (640 nm) laser excitations on resistive superconducting transitions of the niobium thin films on a silicon glass and BiOCl single crystal substrates were studied. The temperature dependences of the resistivity for Nb are in good agreement with the McMillan model which indicates the strong influence of the inverse proximity effect induced by the interface. The increased influence of the BiOCl/Nb interface under laser excitation corresponds to the raising of the ratio of the density of normal to superconductivity carriers in the Tıghtarrow0 limit and this observation is in agreement with the photoconductivity study of BiOCl single crystals.

Magnetothermal properties of the compound NiCl₂(bipy), where bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine, were studied. The single-ion anisotropy of Ni(II) ions was estimated and its influence on magnetocaloric effect in NiCl₂(bipy) was investigated. Above the metamagnetic transition a maximum in the isothermal change of the magnetic entropy is reached near 11 K at field change from 0T to 7T with peak value -ΔS = 6J K¯¹ kg¯¹. The temperature dependence of ΔS above 7K agrees with the assumed easy-axis type of single-ion anisotropy. The inverse magnetocaloric effect, typical for ordered antiferromagnets, was observed in the ordered state of NiCl₂(bipy) only for isothermal magnetization in small fields up to 2T.

Temperature dependence of the heat capacity of layered rare earth molybdates was measured in the temperature range from 0.4 K to 23 K. It is shown that the temperature dependence of the lattice heat capacity can be described by the "T", where n ≠ 3. It is shown that differently from KDy(MoO_{4})_{2} and CsDyEu(MoO_{4})_{2} for CsDy(MoO_{4})_{2} and CsGd(MoO_{4})_{2} we obtained the temperature term with n < 3, which can be connected with the 2D behaviour, manifested also in the so-called membrane effect.

In this paper we discuss the results of experimental studies of specific heat and magnetic susceptibility of chain compound Ni(C_{11}H_{10}N_{2}O)_{2}Ni(CN)_{4}. We have observed a Schottky type anomaly at T=2.2 K in a temperature dependence of specific heat and the compound was identified as a S=1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain with the subcritical exchange coupling D/k_{B}=5 K, D/|J|=5.2 and the strong in-plane anisotropy E/k_{B}=2.8 K. It has been found that the in-plane anisotropy affects the region of validity of a diluted exciton model [1] and a strong coupling model [2] for S=1 Heisenberg chains with the strong planar anisotropy. The analysis suggests that the in-plane anisotropy should be considered in any attempt to find a compound potentially located in the boundary of Haldane and "large-D" phases.

EN
The new organic anion-radical salt (N-Me-Tetra-Me-Pz)(TCNQ)_{2}, (Pz = pyrazine) was studied as a low dimensional magnetic system. Heat capacity and EPR studies were performed in the temperature range from 2 to 300 K. The magnetic susceptibility was measured in the temperature range from 2 to 300 K and in magnetic fields of 100 mT and 1 T. The magnetic properties of this new system can be described as a dimerized Heisenberg spin S=1/2 chain possessing a spin-Peierls transition at 42 K.

The present work is devoted to the magnetic relaxation study of the single crystal CsNd(MoO₄)₂ a layered rare-earth dimolybdate. AC susceptibility measurements performed in magnetic fields up to B=5 T applied along the easy and hard axis with frequency f ≈1 kHz revealed rather complex field-induced slow magnetic relaxation. Two relaxation regimes in different magnetic field intervals connected with magnetic interactions and possible single-ion relaxation mechanism were observed.

We report the experimental results of anion-radical salts based on TCNQ anion radical. DC magnetic susceptibility measurements in the temperature range from 2 K to 300 K and magnetization measurements were performed on two samples: (N-Me-2, 5-di-Me-Pz)(TCNQ)_2 and (N-Me-2, 6-di-Me-Pz)(TCNQ)_2 using a Quantum Design MPMS.

The present work is focused on the investigation of magneto-structural correlations in Cu(en)Cl₂ and Cu(tn)Cl₂. A comparative study of powder susceptibility and magnetization of both compounds revealed that the replacement of tn by en ligand did not affect single-ion properties. On the other hand, the structure modification led to significant reduction of magnetic interactions as well as lowering the crystal symmetry. The impact of the high pressure on magnetic properties of the compounds is discussed.

Magnetic properties of alumina ceramics were studied within a program focused at design of microcalorimeters and experimental setup for specific heat and magnetocaloric measurements. The investigations were concentrated on the determination of amount of magnetic impurities that can significantly influence results of physical measurements at low temperatures. Our experimental studies of heat capacity, susceptibility and magnetization clearly indicate that alumina ceramics contains magnetic impurities, primarily ions with spin 5/2. The average concentration of magnetic ions was estimated, n ≈ 2000 ppm. More details of analysis of experimental data are discussed in the paper.

We present the experimental study of magnetocaloric effect on powder sample [Cu(phen)(H_2O)_2]SO_4 (phen = phenantroline = C_{12}H_8N_2) in the temperature range from nominally 0.2 K to 4 K and in magnetic fields up to 2 T. The values of total entropy were extracted from the experimental data obtained by adiabatic demagnetization. The comparison was performed with the temperature dependence of the entropy for S=1/2 paramagnet calculated at selected magnetic fields. The deviations observed below 0.6 T were attributed to internal field mediated by exchange coupling. In addition, the temperature response observed in [Cu(phen)(H_2O)_2]SO_4 revealed very short relaxation time below 1 K. The comparison of the behavior observed at the end of the demagnetization in [Cu(phen)(H_2O)_2]SO_4 and other systems suggests that the magnetocaloric effect can serve as an alternative tool for studying slow magnetic relaxation.

We report on magnetothermodynamic properties of single crystal KEr(MoO_4)_2 which were investigated from nominally 0.4 K to 20 K in magnetic fields up to 4 T. Using the available specific heat data the diagram of temperature and magnetic field dependence of the total entropy was constructed. Predictions for temperature dependences of the relative temperature variations during the adiabatic demagnetization and the entropy variation during the isothermal demagnetization were calculated from the specific heat data. The obtained results suggest that unlike common refrigerants, in KEr(MoO_4)_2 the quantities describing magnetic cooling remain nearly constant in the temperature range 2-10 K.

Thermodynamic studies of the anion-radical salt system [Ni(bipy)₃](TCNQ)₄·(CH₃)₂CO, where TCNQ is 7,7',8,8'-tetracyano-quinodimethane, are reported. The anion-radical salt systems based on TCNQ belong to a material class in which the arrangement of the anion-radical salt has considerable impact on the charge transfer and magnetic properties. The crystal structure of the studied compound consists of [Ni(bipy)₃]⁺² cations containing Ni⁺² ions and four types of crystallographically independent anion-radicals TCNQ^{·-} (A, B, C and D). These TCNQ^{·-} radicals form two different types of TCNQ^{·-} stacks (AABB and CCDD), where a strong exchange interaction is expected. The temperature dependence of the specific heat of a single crystal was studied in magnetic fields up to 5 T and in the temperature range from 0.4 K to 30 K. The temperature dependence of specific heat displays a broad Schottky-like maximum above 0.4 K. Using a single-ion approximation, the analysis of the temperature dependence of the specific heat below 10 K yields values for the anisotropy parameters, D/k_{B}=-1.95 K and E/k_{B}=0.3 K. These results suggest that the observed maximum in the specific heat originates from Ni⁺² ions while the exchange interaction between the transition metal ions and the TCNQ is negligible.

In this paper we report the formation process and electrophysical properties of 'high temperature superconductor (YBa_2Cu_3O_{7 - x})/photosemiconductor (BiOCl:Ti)' micro- and nanoplates based junction. The energy band model of ≪HTSC-semiconductor≫ junction is proposed.

Heat capacity and electrical resistivity of high-quality Na_{0.77}CoO_{2} single crystals was systematically studied as a function of temperature and magnetic field. Anomalies at 20 K have been observed both in the heat capacity and the electrical resistivity. The broad bump in the heat capacity indicates a smeared magnetic phase transition. Magnetic fields up to 9 T, oriented perpendicularly to the ab plane, reduce the temperature of this anomaly in accordance with the assumption of A-type antiferromagnetic ordering. The low temperature upturn observed in resistivity below 20 K for slow cooling is also suppressed by the magnetic field. This anomaly is probably the consequence of the interplay of several different mechanisms, including the Kondo effect, electron-electron interactions, and electron-phonon scattering.

Low temperature specific heat of layered bismuth oxyhalide crystals has been studied in the temperature range from 2 to 50 K in zero and 8 T magnetic field. The expected Debye-like behaviour at the lowest temperatures (below 4-5 K) is established. Linear dependences of entropy and the Debye temperature as cross-correlation parameters are established. The small values of the Debye temperature and peculiarities of phonon spectra at lowest temperatures are discussed.

Specific heat, magnetization and DC susceptibility of the single crystal CsNd(MoO_{4})_{2},a layered rare-earth dimolybdate, have been investigated nominally, in the temperature range from 100 mK to 300 K in the magnetic field up to 5 T, applied along the a axis. The analysis of the experimental data revealed the absence of a phase transition to the magnetic ordered state down to 100 mK. The application of a standard two-level model yielded an excellent agreement with the specific heat data above 2 K in nonzero magnetic field indicating a weakness of magnetic correlations and a predominant occupation of the ground-energy doublet. The latter indicates a large energy separation between the ground and first excited doublet. These measurements suggest that CsNd(MoO_{4})_{2} can represent a good realization of a single-ion magnet.

The thermal conductivity of CsGd(MoO_4)_2 has been studied in the temperature range from 2 to 50 K in zero magnetic field. The analysis of the data performed within the Debye model with the relaxation-time approximation revealed the presence of the scattering of phonons by critical fluctuations. The behaviour of phonon mean free path at the lowest temperatures is discussed.

Electrical resistance, transversal magnetoresistance and the Hall effect were studied on polycrystalline CaTi_xRu_{1-x}O_3 (x=0, 0.07) samples using a conventional Quantum Design PPMS-9 equipment in the temperature range 2-300 K and magnetic field up to 9 T. Substantial differences were found between the two samples: (i) opposite to the metallic character of CaRuO_3, the substituted sample has insulating-like electrical resistance;(ii) the magnetoresistance of the substituted sample changes the sign from negative to positive values with increasing temperature. The magnetoresistance of CaRuO_3 is negative, the sign reversal is induced by magnetic field and only at temperatures below 15 K, such a behaviour is predicted for clustered systems;(iii) the Hall voltage in pure CaRuO_3 also changes sign from negative to positive values above 35 K. This temperature coincides with the observed magnetic transition temperature, indicating that the magnetic state and the carrier character interrelate.

Magnetocaloric studies of a two-dimensional antiferromagnet Cu(tn)Cl_{2} (tn=1,3-diaminopropane=C_3H_{10}N_2) have been performed by adiabatic magnetization and demagnetization measurements, in the temperature range from 0.2 to 4 K and magnetic fields up to 2 T. The compound represents an S=1/2 spatially anisotropic triangular-lattice antiferromagnet. The magnetocaloric measurements were focused at the identification of the phase transition to the magnetically ordered state which was not indicated in the previous specific heat studies. Furthermore, the interplay of the magnetic-field induced easy-plane anisotropy and the intrinsic spin anisotropy present in the studied system should manifest in low magnetic fields. The obtained results of the magnetocaloric experiments of Cu(tn)Cl_{2} indicate a double crossover from the normal to inverse magnetocaloric effect (MCE). The first crossover from the normal to inverse MCE occurring at about 0.3 K can be attributed to the competition of the aforementioned anisotropies. The second crossover from the inverse to normal MCE observed at about 2.2 K might be ascribed to the formation of spin vortices stabilized by the easy-plane anisotropy introduced by magnetic field.
