    Description: In this paper we describe Suberites diversicolor spec. nov. (Porifera: Demospongiae: Hadromerida: Suberitidae) from four enclosed anchialine lakes located in Indonesia and from a confined system in Singapore. Initially this species was thought to be specific to anchialine lakes, but further comparison to coastal areas indicated that it is more widespread in inshore systems. We have used morphological characters to distinguish this species and a molecular marker to confirm that all types are the same species. Suberites diversicolor spec. nov. is encrusting or massive with small protrusions or larger globular branches. The external colour can be olive-green, blue, purple, red-orange, or orange-yellow. Suberites diversicolor spec. nov. differs from known shallow water species of the genus Suberites in the tropical Indo-Pacific due to its diverse display of colour-morphs and the presence of larger tylostyles with a wide size range.

    Description: A surprisingly high number of shallow water sponge species (197) were recorded from extensive sampling of natural intertidal and subtidal habitats in Singapore (Southeast Asia) from May 2003 to June 2010. This is in spite of a highly modified coastline that encompasses one of the world\xe2\x80\x99s largest container ports as well as extensive oil refining and bunkering industries. A total of 99 intertidal species was recorded in this study. Of these, 53 species were recorded exclusively from the intertidal zone and only 45 species were found on both intertidal and subtidal habitats, suggesting that tropical intertidal and subtidal sponge assemblages are different and distinct. Furthermore, only a third of the fouling species of sponges from a previous study was recorded in this study, thus suggesting that sponge assemblages from natural and fouling communities in the tropics are different as well. A new species, Forcepia (Forcepia) vansoesti is described from Singapore. Members of this genus possess unique spicules shaped in the form of a pair of forceps. The new species is distinguished from its congeners in having the largest forceps (nearly 300 \xce\xbcm in length) so far recorded in the Indo-Pacific.

    Notes: The magnetic properties of an Fe73.5Cu1Nb3Si13.5B9 alloy with nanoscale crystalline structure have been investigated as a function of the melt temperature. In the temperature range of 1240 to 1380 °C investigated in the present study, the permeability increases with the melt temperature. This result may be explained in terms of the reduction in the magnetic anisotropy as a function of the melt temperature. This is supported by the results for the remanence ratio, which also increases with melt temperature in a similar manner to the permeability. In the latter part of the work described in this paper, the relationships between the permeability and the coercivity, and the permeability and the remanence ratio have been investigated for the nanocrystalline alloy. It was found that the permeability is correlated more closely to the remanence ratio than the coercivity.

    Notes: The effects of Al on the soft magnetic properties of nanocrystalline Fe73.5−xAlxCu1Nb3Si13.5B9 alloy ribbons are investigated in the composition range of 0≤x≤1.0. The relative initial permeability at 1 kHz is found to increase by the addition of Al, and reaches the peak value at x=0.1. The coercivity decreases, rather significantly, with the Al content in the whole composition range investigated in the present work, the values of the coercivity being 12.5 mOe at x=0 and 9.3 mOe at x=1.0. The magnetic induction at an applied field of 10 Oe, however, decreases moderately by the introduction of Al, possibly due to the dilution effect. The improvement in the soft magnetic properties is considered to result from the reduction in the grain size of the α Fe-Si solid solution phase of the Al-added alloy ribbons, which has been observed by transmission electron microscopy. Another factor may be due to the decrease in the intrinsic magnetocrystalline anisotropy K1 as Al is added to the alloy.

    Notes: It is well known that CeSb displays the largest ferromagnetic Kerr rotation known with a peak value of over 14°, which is about 30 times that of the strongly magnetic material iron. Conventional magneto-optical theory for magnetically ordered materials ascribes the magneto-optic effects to spin-orbit coupling. We have suggested1 that in such highly correlated partially-delocalized f-electron systems where the magnetization is orbitally driven, the electromagnetic wave couples directly to the electronic magnetization. We believe that such a coupling avoids the weak linkage provided by spin-orbit coupling and is responsible for the giant magneto-optic rotation in CeSb. We first did a conventional itinerant electron (band magnetism) calculation to see if it gives the correct Kerr rotation. The band structure used is obtained from a self-consistent spin-polarized full-potential LMTO calculation with a true interstitial. As a test, we have also calculated the magneto-optic rotation in both bcc and fcc iron where the conventional theory provides good agreement with experiment.〈ks〉

    Notes: CeSb and CeTe show giant magneto-optic Kerr rotations and also have extremely unusual magnetic ordering properties. CeSb shows peculiar and extraordinarily anisotropic antiferromagnetic behavior; while CeTe shows an ordered moment and TN only 15% that of CeSb, indicative of incipient heavy-fermion behavior. This has been understood in an absolute theory of orbitally driven correlated f-electron magnetism. We seek to understand the giant magneto-optic properties including the role, if any, of explicit correlation effects not captured by an exchange-correlation potential. To this end we have performed full potential linearized muffin-tin orbital polarized band calculations for the optical conductivity tensor, first only spin polarized (orbital polarization only via spin-orbit coupling) and second with explicit orbital polarization. As expected, for CeSb and CeTe the spin-polarized calculation gave the diagonal, ordinary optical, conductivity in good agreement with experiment; but the off-diagonal, magneto-optic, behavior was in poor agreement; and the ordered moment was much different from experiment. For the spin-and-orbitally polarized calculation, the ordered moment agreed reasonably well with experiment for CeSb but very poorly for CeTe. However, the magneto-optic behavior remained distinctly different from experiment for both materials. Thus as anticipated, explicit correlation effects associated with differing discrete f-configuration energies appear to be a central aspect of giant magneto-optic behavior.

    Notes: We have been developing an understanding of the role of correlation (configuration fluctuation) effects on the giant magneto-optic properties of a class of unusual highly anisotropic, magnetically ordered, highly correlated f-electron materials. While orbital polarization in the band calculations improved the ordered moment agreement with experiments for the less correlated materials, the magneto-optic of calculation and experiment remained distinctly different. Moreover, the more highly correlated the material, the worse the agreement of the two quantities. We have now done similar calculations within local-density approximation with gradient (nonlocal) corrections included. While the nonlocal effects introduced by the generalized gradient approximation significantly modify the calculated equilibrium moment and magneto-optic behavior, comparison with experiment reinforces our earlier conclusion that band theory, which treats fluctuations in a time-averaged sense, is inadequate for capturing key effects of interconfigurational fluctuations in correlated-electron systems. Explicit treatment of correlation effects analogous to those we have already reported for the magnetically ordered moments and ordering temperature is necessary for the magneto-optic behavior.

    Notes: An important characteristic of correlated f-electron systems is their dual nature of having both degrees of localization and itinerancy. Their magnetic behavior evolves with the amount of delocalization they have. Rare-earth monopnictides are on the localized side, with weak delocalization related to hybridization. Uranium monopnictides are on the itinerant side, but localization cannot be fully neglected. To explore the problem from both the localized and the itinerant sides, we have been developing techniques to calculate the evolving properties of f-electron systems on a first principle ab initio basis. This involves: electronic structure calculations; calculating band-f hybridization; calculating Coulomb exchange interaction; and calculating magnetic ordering. In this work, we applied these techniques to evaluate the evolution of f-electron behavior from heavy rare earths to light rare earths to actinides. We will discuss how the degree of localization of the f electrons affects their hybridization and Coulomb exchange interaction with non-f band electrons, and how this influences the two-ion exchange interaction and magnetic ordering. Our calculation is for XSb where X=Ce, Nd, Tb, Er, Yb, U and for CeTe and UTe.

    Notes: ZnO films were grown on a (011¯2) r-plane LiTaO3 substrate by electron cyclotron resonance-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy. The detailed structures of the interface and defects are investigated by high-resolution electron microscopy and image simulation. The epitaxial relationship was found to be [0001]ZnO(parallel)[01¯11]LiTaO3 and (112¯0)ZnO(parallel)(011¯2)LiTaO3. This epitaxial relationship corresponds to the c axis of ZnO parallel to the piezoelectric r-plane LiTaO3, which results in the enhanced electromechanical coupling factor. The interfaces were very smooth and structurally semicoherent with a comparative regular array of misfit dislocations at the interface accommodating a lattice mismatch of 9.49% when the incident electron beam is parallel to the [0001]ZnO(parallel)[01¯11]LiTaO3 direction. A high efficiency of transfer of acoustic energy across the interface is expected for surface acoustic wave devices with such an interface. The dominant defects commonly observed in ZnO films were found to be the type-I1 intrinsic stacking fault. The formation of stacking faults was shown to be growth kinetics on particular crystallographic planes during the initial stage of film growth. The effects of these defects and interfaces on electrical and optical properties for device applications are discussed. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
