1. Emergence of Ferromagnetism Through the Metal-Insulator Transition in Undoped Indium Tin Oxide Films

Author

Mumford, Samuel, Paul, Tiffany, and Kapitulnik, Aharon

Subjects
Condensed Matter - Materials Science
Abstract

We present a detailed study of the emergence of bulk ferromagnetism in low carrier density samples of undoped indium tin oxide (ITO). We used annealing to increase the density of oxygen vacancies and change sample morphology without introducing impurities through the metal insulator transition (MIT). We utilized a novel and highly sensitive "Corbino-disk torque magnetometry" technique to simultaneously measure the thermodynamic and transport effects of magnetism on the same sample after successive annealing. With increased sample granularity, carrier density increased, the sample became more metallic, and ferromagnetism appeared as resistance approached the MIT. Ferromagnetism was observed through the detection of magnetization hysteresis, anomalous Hall effect (AHE), and hysteretic magnetoresistance. A sign change of the AHE as the MIT is approached may elucidate the interplay between the impurity band and the conduction band in the weakly insulating side of the MIT., Comment: 9 pages, 10 figures

2. Sample Shape and Boundary Dependence of Measured Transverse Thermal Properties

Author

Subjects

Abstract

Despite increased interest in thermal Hall measurements for the analysis of insulating quantum materials, there remains large uncertainty in such measurements due to contact misalignment. In this paper we propose that sample geometry and uncertain boundary conditions may account for uncertainty in the measurement of $D_{xy}$ or $\kappa_{xy}$ as well. By running simple simulations in an open source finite-element solver, we demonstrate that measured $D_{xy}$ in a thermal Hall bar can be changed by a factor of order unity in samples with similar width and length. This geometric corrective factor depends on the distinction between uniform heat flow and constant temperature boundary couplings to a bath. Sample geometry and boundary conditions can be accounted for through simulation or by using rectangular samples to make thermal Hall measurements more reliable and reproducible when the amplitude of $\kappa_{xy}$ is important. Finally, we propose a contactless optical method for measuring $D_{xy}$ which is insensitive to the longitudinal diffusivity pollution caused by contact misalignment.

3. A Cantilever Torque Magnetometry Method for the Measurement of Hall Conductivity of Highly Resistive Samples

Author

Mumford, Samuel, Paul, Tiffany, Lee, Seung Hwan, Yacoby, Amir, and Kapitulnik, Aharon

Subjects
Condensed Matter - Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics, Physics - Applied Physics
Abstract

We present the first measurements of Hall conductivity utilizing a new torque magnetometry method designed for insulators. A Corbino disk exhibits a magnetic dipole moment proportional to Hall conductivity when voltage is applied across a test material. This magnetic dipole moment can be measured through torque magnetometry. The symmetry of this contactless technique allows for the measurement of Hall conductivity in previously inaccessible materials. Finally, a low-temperature noise bound, the lack of systematic errors on dummy devices, and a measurement of the Hall conductivity of sputtered indium tin oxide demonstrate the efficacy of the technique.

Abstract

In 2008 Professor Eric Godelier published a provocative essay in which he concluded that a positive dialogue between business historians and both management scientists and business management practitioners was possible. While the divide between these camps was not trivial, he nevertheless wrote that current events and scholarship was bringing them together, at least as he could observe these trends in the context of emerging French scholarship. In this current review, my own conclusion is the opposite. Management scholarship, in fact, continues to move away from the “soft” approach of the historian and more towards the “rigorous” and quantitatively biased methodology of the management sciences. My essay reviews the background of this development in terms of American business practice and scholarship, as it seeks to demonstrate how the evolution of management training in the United States brought us to the current state of affairs where “hard” drives out soft in almost every encounter. However, while I conclude that this is indeed the current reality, I do not imply any endorsement of this outcome. Rather, I end with a hope that some forms of rapprochement might be possible-yet with an acknowledgement that we will have no definitive answers to this question anytime soon.

17. Winning New Business.

Author

Abstract

The largest mistake brands make is having the first transaction be driven off discount, starting the relationship off on the wrong foot. Therefore, we have leveraged influencer marketing to leverage the trust they have with their followers, who look to them as guides for product recommendations and reviews." Instead of competing dollar to dollar or discount to discount, we pushed our brand awareness marketing and moved spend onto YouTube, where we could tell our unique brand story in a video format that other brands could not compete with.

20. Application of the Augmented Operator Function Model for Developing Cognitive Metrics in Persistent Surveillance

Author

RADIANCE TECHNOLOGIES INC HUNTSVILLE AL, Paul, Tiffany M, Fendley, Mary, Gibbs, Soloman, RADIANCE TECHNOLOGIES INC HUNTSVILLE AL, Paul, Tiffany M, Fendley, Mary, and Gibbs, Soloman

Abstract

Difficulties with the implementation of persistent Wide Area Motion Imagery (WAMI) sensors to support real-time military missions have risen within Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance organization. In this study, cognitive models were developed of real-time missions currently supported by narrow field of view Full Motion Video (FMV) and WAMI sensors. These models were used in conjunction with a cognitive task analysis, creating an augmented operator function model (OFM-COG). This thesis describes the OFM-COG and demonstrates how this model-based analysis technique can document the cognitive implications of persistent surveillance with motion imagery. The analytic procedures required to build this model result in a methodology for the definition of an information display system specific for intelligence analysis tasks. Specifically, the models developed examine the cognitive demands of an Imagery Analyst (IA) during a real-time mission, with WAMI and/or FMV. From this, a set of cognitive metrics for analyst performance were identified for the real-time military missions in persistent surveillance.

26. The Roots of Decline: Business-Government Relations in the American Steel Industry, 1945–1960

Abstract

Recent problems in the performance of the American steel industry have prompted a number of calls for an “industrial policy” for this sector. Before any such programs of public intervention can be considered, however, it would behoove public policymakers to examine why the industry fell into its present state of decline. This paper, an abstract of a longer study, analyzes the relations of business and government in American steel from 1945 to 1960, and concludes that public policies had as much to do with subsequent industry decline as did other factors previously delineated by scholars.
