Ultrafast demagnetization of rare-earth metals is distinct from that of 3d ferromagnets, as rare-earth magnetism is dominated by localized 4f electrons that cannot be directly excited by an optical laser pulse. Their demagnetization must involve excitation of magnons, driven either through exchange coupling between the 5d6s-itinerant and 4f-localized electrons or by coupling of 4f spins to lattice excitations. Here, we disentangle the ultrafast dynamics of 5d6s and 4f magnetic moments in terbium metal by time-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We show that the demagnetization time of the Tb 4f magnetic moments of 400 fs is set by 4f spin–lattice coupling. This is experimentally evidenced by a comparison to ferromagnetic gadolinium and supported by orbital-resolved spin dynamics simulations. Our findings establish coupling of the 4f spins to the lattice via the orbital momentum as an essential mechanism driving magnetization dynamics via ultrafast magnon generation in technically relevant materials with strong magnetic anisotropy.

Temperature-field and orientational magnetization dependences of single crystals were measured. Both samples demonstrate significant field-depending temperature hysteresis and low-temperature counter field magnetization. The correlation of orientational dependences of these effects and magnetic anisotropy is analyzed; the role of spin-lattice interactions is discussed.

‘For all practical purposes: technologies of the elements’ considers the variety that exists within the elements, and how they can be applied to our everyday lives. Iron and steel gave early armies the edge in battle, but the role of carbon in steel production was not understood until the eighteenth century. Silicon was used in glass for centuries, but its semiconducting properties make it the ideal substance for computer chips. The platinum group metals were unsuccessfully marketed as alternatives to silver, but now they are integral in catalytic converters. Palladium gained notoriety as a key ingredient of ‘cold fusion’, and rare earth metals are used in television screens.

The effects of rare earth metals on the inclusions and the mechanical properties of 2Cr13 stainless steel were studied by metallographic examination, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy spectrum analysis. The results show that the morphologies and sizes of inclusions in 2Cr13 stainless steel are changed, and rare earth metals played a very good role of modifying inclusions. The fracture mode of 2Cr13 stainless steel is typical cleavage fracture, but quasi-cleavage and dimple fracture after adding Ce into the steel, and the spherical inclusions of rare earth oxysulfide in the dimple are the main factors for this transformation. The transverse impact toughness of 2Cr13 stainless steel is improved obviously by Ce. In comparison with 2Cr13 stainless steel without Ce, the transverse impact toughness of 2Cr13 stainless steel with Ce is increased 54.55% at -40°C, and the room temperature strength are improved, the elongation and reduction of area have been improved 11.90%, 16.67 respectively.

In this work we demonstrate that La2NiMnO6 exhibits a colossal magneto-dielectric (MD) effect (5%-55%) over a broad range of temperatures (100–270 K), when compared to other Rare Earth (RE = Pr, Sm, and Tb) containing Ni-Mn double perovskites. The noticeable magneto-dielectric effect in RE2NiMnO6 signals the influence of spin orientations in the two magnetic sublattices on the spin-lattice coupling. Finally with the help of Raman spectroscopy we clarify that the presence of spin-phonon coupling alone is not the cause for the observed colossal MD effect in RE2NiMnO6.
