Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a perovskite CaFeO 3 with a o = 3.770 A has been synthesized at high temperature and pressure and an isomer shift corresponding to the tetravalent state of iron and a Neel temperature of 120°K were obtained from Mossbauer spectra and magnetic susceptibility measurements.

Journal ArticleDOI
Philip W. Anderson1
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of localisability of magnetism was discussed from the point of view of localism theory and it was remarked that the local field equations considered as eigenvalue equations must have only localised, not extended, solutions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the glass transition temperatures for 6 glasses were determined by DTA and X-ray diffraction data and the possibility that diphastic or microheterogeneous structures exist at both ends of the glass-forming region was indicated from the DTA data.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: When the formation of hydroxyapatite in aqueous solution proceeds from the dissolution of non-crystalline calcium phosphate, the crystal growth of the apatite can be divided into two distinct stages as mentioned in this paper.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, a single tungsten trioxide prepared by sublimation has been reduced in vacuo at temperatures up to 850°C. The microstructure of these crystals consisted predominantly of planar defects on {120} R planes.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the strong dependence of the kinetics photoresponse on the wavelength of exciting light was found in vitreous samples of arsenic selenide and the experimental results can be explained supposing the additional thermal excitation of localized holes, which were created during the long wavelength illumination.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that superconductivity and ferroelectricity seem to exclude each other in organic materials, and the dominant properties of the two phenomena are determined by a purely dimensional argument.
