| Abstract |
Superfluid helium, a state of matter existing at low temperatures, shows many remarkable properties. One example is the so called fountain effect, where a heater can produce a jet of helium. This converts heat into mechanical motion; a machine with no moving parts, but working only below 2 K. Allen and Jones first demonstrated the effect in 1938, but their work was basically qualitative. We now present data of a quantitative version of the experiment. We have measured the heat supplied, the temperature and the height of the jet produced. We also develop equations, based on the two-fluid model of superfluid helium, that give a satisfactory fit to the data. The experiment has been performed by advanced undergraduate students in our home institution, and illustrates in a vivid way some of the striking properties of the superfluid state. |

| Abstract |
Artificially engineered superlattices were designed and fabricated to induce different growth mechanisms and structural characteristics. DC sputtering was used to grow ferromagnetic (La0.8Ba0.2MnO3)/ferroelectric (Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 or BaTiO3) superlattices. We systematically modified the thickness of the ferromagnetic layer to analyze dimensional and structural disorder effects on the superlattices with different structural characteristics. The crystalline structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The magnetic and electronic properties were investigated by SQUID magnetometry and resistance measurements. The results show that both strain and structural disorder can significantly affect the physical properties of the systems. Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 based superlattices with a low thickness of the ferromagnetic layers (4 nm.) present compressive strain that decreases the ferromagnetic transition temperature from 250 K corresponding to the unstressed samples to 230 K. In these samples, the localization energy of the charge carrier through the electron-phonon interaction decreases at low temperatures (∼100 meV). Ba0.25Sr0.75TiO3 based superlattices with thicknesses of the ferromagnetic layers higher than 12 nm present tensile strain that reduces the charge carrier localization energy at low temperatures (∼1 meV), increasing the ferromagnetic transition temperature (Tc∼265K). Structural defects in BaTiO3 based superlattices have a stronger influence on the magnetic properties than on the transport properties. Nevertheless, disorder blocks the ferromagnetic transition for highly disordered samples (thickness of the ferromagnetic layer < 3 nm). These results help to further understand the role of strain and interface effects in the magnetic and transport properties of manganite based multiferroic systems. |

| Abstract |
La0·8Ba0·2MnO3, Ba0·25Sr0·75TiO3 and BaTiO3 superlattices were grown to study the influence of structural disorder on the physical properties of multiferroic multilayers. Controlling the lattice mismatch of the superlattices allowed growing structures with different growth mechanisms. The manganite layers in the samples were used as “sensor layers”, that respond to the structural changes in the superlattices, induced by changing the thickness and nature of the ferroelectric layers. Stress has a weak influence on the magnetic properties of these systems. Transport properties are characterized by a high temperature thermally activated regime and a low temperature variable hopping one. The strain and structural disorder in the samples increases the localization energy of the current carriers for both regimes. Important interface effects can be achieved controlling the strain and disorder in the interfaces, allowing tuning the metal-insulator transition temperature. These results help to further understand the role of interface effects in the development of manganite based ferromagnetic/ferroelectric multilayered systems. |
