Scaling like behaviour of resistivity observed in LaNiO3 thin films grown on SrTiO3 substrate by pulsed laser deposition.

We discuss the origin of the temperature dependence of resistivity ρ observed in highly oriented LaNiO3 thin films grown on SrTiO3 substrate by a pulsed laser deposition technique. All the experimental data are found to collapse into a single universal curve ρ(T, d) ∝ [T/T(sf)(d)]3/2 for the entire temperature interval (20K

Temperature oscillations of magnetization observed in nanofluid ferromagnetic graphite.

We report on unusual magnetic properties observed for nanofluid room temperature ferromagnetic graphite (with an average particle size of [Formula: see text] nm). More precisely, the measured magnetization exhibits a low temperature anomaly (attributed to the manifestation of finite size effects below the quantum temperature [Formula: see text]) as well as pronounced temperature oscillations above T = 50 K (attributed to manifestation of the hard-sphere type of pair correlations between ferromagnetic particles in the nanofluid).
