Magnetic field induced structural transition has been systematically investigated for $La_{1-x}Ba_xMnO_3$ with the fine control of carrier doping $(0.15{\leq}x{\leq}0.20)$. Application of a magnetic field results in the suppression of the rhombohedral-orthorhombic transition temperature $(T_s)$ and the increase of insulator-metal transition temperature $(T_{MI})$. Near x = 0.17, where $T_S$ is similar to $T_{MI}$ at zero magnetic field, we found that the $T_S$ smoothly decreased with magnetic field even though it intersected the $T_{MI}$ near 3 T. Also, the magnetostructural phase diagram obtained from the temperature sweep and from the magnetic field sweep is not significantly modified. By comparing the magnetostructural transition in $La_{1-x}Sr_xMnO_3$, we have suggested that the large disorder originated from ionic size differences between La and Ba may weaken the sensitivity of the kinetic energy of $e_g$ electrons on the degree of lattice distortion in $La_{1-x}Ba_xMnO_3$.

The structural, magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of $CoMn_{1-x}Cr_xGe$ (x=0.05-0.125) have been investigated by using electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, calorimetric and magnetic measurements. In this study, our aim is to justify the magnetocaloric effect by tuning the structural and magnetic transition temperature with Cr doping on CoMnGe pure system. The substitution of Cr for Mn leads to a decrease of both structural and magnetic transition temperatures. However, structural and magnetic transition temperatures do not close to each other. From magnetization measurement, we calculate that isothermal entropy change associated with magnetic transition can be as high as 3.82 J $kg^{-1}K^{-1}$ at 302 K in a field of 7 T. Meanwhile, structural phase transition contribution to isothermal entropy change is calculated as 5.85 J $kg^{-1}K^{-1}$ at 322 K for 7 T.

We have studied the temperature dependent magnetic properties and crystalline phase transitionn in small amount Fe doped nickel chromite. The Crystalline structure of $NiCr_{1.7}Fe_{0.3}O_4$ is spinel cubic (Fd-3m) structure with a lattice constant $a_0=8.317\AA$ at room temperature. The magnetic $N\acute{e}el$ temperature $(T_N)$ of the Fe doped nickel chromite sample is determined to be 250 K. The $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectra exhibit that there are two magnetic phases with the two different sites for the $Cr^{3+}$ ions. The spectrum at 4.2 K is fitted to two magnetic components of the magnetic hyperfine fields $H_{hf}=496$ and 485 kOe. From the spectrum at 295 K, the electric quadrupole splittings are observed with large values of 0.49 and 0.50 mm/s, respectively. The values of the isomer shifts at all temperature ranges show that the Fe ions are ferric states. We are suggested that the dynamic Jahn-Teller distortion and anisotropic magnetic relaxation effects due to the crystalline phase transition.

The temperature dependence of DC magnetic susceptibilities of three austenitic Fe-Cr-Ni stainless alloys were measured in the temperature range of 4.2 and 300 K. Two alloys support a general magnetic description of austen-itic stsinless steels in terms of a two-magnetic-phase (spin glass + superparamagnetic cluster) model and one alloy shows magnetic double transition phenomena. Also this study shows that incressing the Ni/Cr ratio in Fe-Cr-Ni alloys causes a increase of the DC susceptibility peak value and a decrease of the magnetic transition temperature.

$Gd_{1-x}Ho_xNi$ melt-spun ribbons were fabricated by a single-roller melt spinning method. All the compounds crystallize in an orthorhombic CrB-type structure. The Curie temperature ($T_C$) was tuned between 46 and 99 K by varying the concentration of Gd and Ho. A spin reorientation (SRO) transition is observed around 13 K. Different from $T_C$, the SRO transition temperature is almost invariable for all compounds. Two peaks of magnetic entropy change (${\Delta}S_M$) were found. One at the higher temperature range was originated from the paramagnet-ferromagnet phase transition and the other at the lower temperature range was caused by the SRO transition. The maximum of ${\Delta}S_M$ around $T_C$ is almost same. The other maximum of ${\Delta}S_M$ around SRO transition, however, had significantly positive relationship with x. It reached a maximum about $8.2J\;kg^{-1}\;K^{-1}$ for x = 0.8. Thus double large ${\Delta}S_M$ peaks were obtained in $Gd_{1-x}Ho_xNi$ melt-spun ribbons with the high Ho concentration. And the refrigerant capacity power reached a maximum of $622J\;kg^{-1}$ for x = 0.6. $Gd_{1-x}Ho_xNi$ ribbons could be good candidate for magnetic refrigerant working in the low temperature especially near the liquid nitrogen temperature range.

The influence of the order-disorder structural transition on the magnetic and mageto-optical, and transport properties of Fe-Al and Co-Al alloy films has been investigated. The disordered states in the alloy films were prepared by vapor quenching deposition on glass substrates cooled by liquid nitrogen. The experimental study of the magento-optical properties of the ordered and disordered Fe-Al and Co-Al alloy films has been carried out in 1.05-5.0 eV energy range at room temperature. The transport properties have been measured in 2-300K temperature range with and without magnetic field of 0.5T. The influence of the order-disorder structural transition on the magnetic and magneto-optical properties was discussed by using the effective medium approximation and the structural defect approach. That on the temperature dependence of the resistivity was analyzed in a framework of the partial localization of the electronic states and the variable range hopping conductivity.

The structural, magnetic, and transport properties of a mono-layered manganite $La_{0.7}Sr_{1.3}MnO_{4+{\delta}}$ were investigated using variable temperature neutron powder diffraction as well as magnetization and transport measurements. The compound adopts the tetragonal I4/mmm symmetry and exhibits no magnetic reflection in the temperature region of 10 K ≤ T ≤ 300 K. A weak ferromagnetic (FM) transition occurs about 130 K, which almost coincides with the onset of a metal-insulator (M-I) transition. Extra oxygen that occupies the interstitial site between the [(La,Sr)O] layers makes the spacing between the [MnO₂] layers shorten, which enhances the inter-layer coupling and eventually leads to the M-I transition. We also found negative magneto resistance (MR) below the M-I transition temperature, which can be understood on the basis of the percolative transport via FM metallic domains in the antiferromagnetic (AFM) insulating matrix.

Ferromagnetism in manganese compound semiconductors open prospects for tailoring magnetic and spin-related phenomena in semiconductors with a precision specific to III-V compounds. Also it addresses a question about the origin of the magnetic interactions that lead to a Curie temperature(Tc) as high as 110 K for a manganese concentration of just 5%. Zener's model of ferromagnetism, originally suggested for transition metals in 1950, can explain Tc of $Ga_{1-x}Mn_x$ As and that of its IT-VI counterpart $Zn_{1-x}Mn_x$ Te and is used to predict materials with Tc exceeding room temperature, an important step toward semiconductor electronics that use both charge and spin. In this article, we present not only the experimental result but calculated Curie temperature by RKKY interaction. The problem in making III-V semiconductor has been the low solubility of magnetic elements, such as manganese, in the compound, since the magnetic effects are roughly proportional to the concentration of the magnetic ions. Low solubility of magnetic elements was overcome by low-temperature nonequilibrium MBE{molecular beam epitaxy) growth, and ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As was realized. Magnetotransport measurements revealed that the magnetic transition temperature can be as high as 110 K for a small manganese concentration.

The phase transition temperatures and thermodynamic properties of $(NH_4)_2MnCl_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ grown by the slow evaporation method were studied using differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. A structural phase transition occurred at temperature $T_{C1}$ (=264 K), whereas the changes at $T_{C2}$ (=460 K) and $T_{C3}$ (=475 K) seemed to be chemical changes caused by thermal decomposition. In addition, the chemical shift and the spin-lattice relaxation time $T_{1{\rho}}$ were investigated using $^1H$ magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR), in order to understand the role of $NH_4{^+}$ and $H_2O$. The rise in $T_{1{\rho}}$ with temperature was related to variations in the symmetry of the surrounding $H_2O$ and $NH_4{^+}$.

The polycrystalline sample of $Ba_2Co_{1.5}Mg_{0.5}Fe_{11.88}Ga_{0.12}O_{22}$ Y-type hexaferrite, doped with Ga-cation, was prepared by using the solid-state reaction method. The crystalline structure of sample was investigated by x-ray diffractometer (XRD), and the magnetic properties of sample were measured by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectrometer. The crystal structure of prepared sample was determined to be rhombohedral with space group R-3m. From the temperature dependence of the magnetization curves under 100 Oe between 4.2 and 740 K, two temperature-dependent magnetic transitions occurred in the $Ba_2Co_{1.5}Mg_{0.5}Fe_{11.88}Ga_{0.12}O_{22}$ sample. $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra of the sample were analyzed at various temperatures ranging from 4.2 to 620 K, and the $Ba_2Co_{1.5}Mg_{0.5}Fe_{11.88}Ga_{0.12}O_{22}$ sample showed abrupt changes in $H_{hf}$ and $E_Q$ at 200 K, indicating the spin transition effect. We have also determined the magnetic transition temperature $T_C$, in addition to the temperature dependent magnetization and ZVC measurements.
