Thermal modeling of head disk interface system in heat assisted magnetic recording
A thorough understanding of the temperature profiles introduced by the heat assisted magnetic recording is required to maintain the hotspot at the desired location on the disk with minimal heat damage to other components. Here, we implement a transient mesoscale modeling methodology termed lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for phonons (which are primary carriers of energy) in the thermal modeling of the head disk interface (HDI) components, namely, carbon overcoat (COC). The LBM can provide more accurate results compared to conventional Fourier methodology by capturing the nanoscale phenomena due to ballistic heat transfer. We examine the in-plane and out-of-plane heat transfer in the COC via analyzing the temperature profiles with a continuously focused and pulsed laser beam on a moving disk. Larger in-plane hotspot widening is observed in continuously focused laser beam compared to a pulsed laser. A pulsed laser surface develops steeper temperature gradients compared to continuous hotspot. Furthermore, out-of-plane heat transfer from the COC to the media is enhanced with a continuous laser beam then a pulsed laser, while the temperature takes around 140 fs to reach the bottom surface of the COC. Our study can lead to a realistic thermal model describing novel HDI material design criteria for the next generation of hard disk drives with ultra high recording densities.
Evolution of magnetic field induced ordering in the layered quantum Heisenberg triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Ba 3 CoSb 2 O 9
Quantum fluctuations in the effective spin-12 layered triangular-lattice quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet Ba 3 CoSb 2 O 9 lift the classical degeneracy of the antiferromagnetic ground state in magnetic field, producing a series of novel spin structures for magnetic fields applied within the crystallographic ab plane, including a celebrated collinear “up-up-down” spin ordering with magnetization equal to 1/3 of the saturation magnetization over an extended field range. Theoretically unresolved, however, are the effects of interlayer antiferromagnetic coupling and transverse magnetic fields on the ground states of this system. Additional magnetic field induced phase transitions are theoretically expected and in some cases have been experimentally observed, but details regarding their number, location, and physical character appear inconsistent with the predictions of existing models. Conversely, an absence of experimental measurements as a function of magnetic-field orientation has left other key predictions of these models untested. To address these issues, in this study we have used specific heat, neutron diffraction, thermal conductivity, and magnetic torque measurements to map out the phase diagram as a function of magnetic field intensity and orientation relative to the crystallographic ab plane. For H||ab, we have discovered an additional magnetic field induced phase transition at low temperature and an unexpected tetracritical point in the high-field phase diagram, which coupled with the apparent second-order nature of the phase transitions eliminates several theoretically proposed spin structures for the high-field phases. Our calorimetric measurements as a function of magnetic field orientation are in general agreement with theory for field-orientation angles close to plane parallel (H||a) but diverge at angles near plane perpendicular; a predicted convergence of two phase boundaries at finite angle and a corresponding change in the order of the field induced phase transition are not observed experimentally. Our results emphasize the role of interlayer coupling in selecting and stabilizing field induced phases, provide guidance on the nature of the magnetic order in each phase, and reveal the need for new physics to account for the nature of magnetic ordering in this archetypal two-dimensional spin-12 triangular-lattice quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet.

Field Harmonic Measurement of High-Gradient Permanent Magnet Quadrupoles for NSLS- II Upgrade
The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is preparing for a major upgrade based on a new lattice concept, known as “Complex Bend,” to replace its existing double bend achromat (DBA) lattice. Here, this novel lattice will use high-gradient permanent magnet quadrupoles (PMQs) with small apertures in the range of 16–22 mm. A prototype complex bend branch with PMQs has been installed in the NSLS-II linac to evaluate the lattice's performance. An accurate and precise magnetic measurement system is required for field harmonic characterization and magnetic tuning of these PMQs. As part of this project a Rotating-Coil bench, based on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) coil with a 12 mm diameter, has been configured to measure nine PMQs with bore diameter of 12.7 mm. This PCB coil has an active length of 270 mm, and is able to measure fields up to the 15th harmonic of the main field at a reference radius of 5 mm, while maintaining field quality levels within 10 ppm of the main field. This article presents the PCB coil setup, the harmonic measurement results and their temperature dependencies and repeatability. Simulation results on compensation of undesired multipoles using “IDBuilder”, a genetic algorithm-based optimizer code for magnetic tuning is included for field harmonic corrections.

PRELIMINARY RESULTS OF MAGNETIC AND TEMPERATURE MAP SYSTEM FOR 3 GHz SUPERCONDUCTING RADIO FREQUENCY CAVITIES
Superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities are fundamental building blocks of modern particle accelerators. A surface resistance in the tens of nanoOhm range is achieved when cooling these cavities to liquid helium temperature, ~2 - 4 K. One of the leading sources of residual losses in SRF cavities is trapped magnetic flux. Flux trapping mechanism depends on different surface preparations and cool-down conditions. We have designed, developed and commissioned a combined magnetic and temperature mapping system using anisotropic magneto-resistance sensors and carbon resistors, respectively, to study the flux trap mechanism in 3 GHz single-cell niobium cavities. In this contribution, we will describe the experimental apparatus and present preliminary test results.

Single Molecule Investigations and Manipulation of Magnetic and Superconducting Molecular Systems on Surfaces (Final Technical Report)
Charge density waves and negative differential resistance are seemingly unconnected physical phenomena. The former is an ordered quantum fluid of electrons, intensely investigated for its relation with superconductivity, while the latter receives much attention for its potential applications in electronics. Here we show that these two phenomena can not only coexist but also that the localized electronic states of the charge density wave are essential to induce negative differential resistance in a transition metal dichalcogenide, 1T-TaS 2 . Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we report the observation of negative differential resistance in the commensurate charge density wave state of 1T-TaS 2 .

Time inversion symmetry in the Dirac and Schrödinger-Pauli theories
The Schrödinger-Pauli theory is generally believed to give a faithful representation of the nonrelativistic and weakly relativistic limit of the Dirac theory. However, the Schrödinger-Pauli theory is fundamentally incomplete in its account of broken time inversion symmetry, e.g., in magnetically ordered systems. Here, in the Dirac theory of the electron, magnetic order breaks time inversion symmetry even in the nonrelativistic limit, whereas time inversion symmetry is effectively preserved in the Schrödinger-Pauli theory in the absence of spin-orbit coupling. In the Dirac theory, the Berry curvature $1/(2m^2 c^2)$ is thus an intrinsic property of nonrelativistic electrons similar to the well-known spin magnetic moment $e\hbar/(2m)$, while this result is missed by the nonrelativistic or weakly relativistic Schrödinger-Pauli equation. In ferromagnetically ordered systems, the intrinsic Berry curvature yields a contribution to the anomalous Hall conductivity independent of spin-orbit coupling.
