- The effect of oxygen impurities upon the radial thermal expansion αr of bundles of closed single-walled carbon nanotubes has been investigated in the temperature interval 2.2–48 K by the dilatometric method. Saturation of bundles of nanotubes with oxygen caused an increase in the positive αr-values in the whole interval of temperatures used. Also, several peaks appeared in the temperature dependence αr(T) above 20 K. The low temperature desorption of oxygen from powders consisting of bundles of single-walled nanotubes with open and closed ends has been investigated.

- The effect of a normal H2 impurity upon the radial thermal expansion ar of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) bundles has been investigated in the interval T = 2.2–27 K using the dilatometric method. It is found that H2 saturation of SWNT bundles causes a shift of the temperature interval of the negative thermal expansion towards lower (as compared to pure carbon nanotubes) temperatures and a sharp increase in the magnitude of ar in the whole range of temperatures investigated. The low temperature desorption of H2 from a powder consisting of bundles of SWNTs, open and closed at the ends, has been investigated.

- Orientational glasses with CO molecules occupying 26 and 90% of the octahedral interstitial sites in the C60 lattice have been investigated by the dilatometric method in a temperature interval of 2.5–22 K. At temperatures 4–6 K the glasses undergo a first-order phase transition which is evident from the hysteresis of the thermal expansion and the maxima in the temperature dependences of the linear thermal expansion coefficients a(T), and the thermalization times t1(T) of the samples. The effect of the noncentral CO–C60 interaction upon the thermal expansion and the phase transition in these glasses was clarified by comparing the behavior of the properties of the CO–C60 and N2–C60 solutions.

- The thermal expansion of CD4 solutions in the orientational glass C60 with molar concentration of deuteromethane 20 and 50% has been investigated in the temperature range 2.5–23 K. The orientational glass CD4–C60 undergoes a first-order phase transition in the temperature interval 4.5–55 K. This transition is manifested as hysteresis of the linear thermal expansion coefficient alpha as well as maxima in the temperature dependences alpha(T) and tau1(T), where tau1 is the characteristic thermalization time of the experimental samples. The characteristic re-orientation times of the C60 molecules and the characteristic phase transformations occurring in the experimental solutions are determined. The results of the present study are compared with the results of a similar study of the solution CH4–C60. It is concluded that tunneling rotation of the CH4 and CD4 molecules occupying interstitial positions in the fullerite C60 lattice occurs.

- We consider a new kind of superconducting proximity effect created by the tunneling of "spin split" Cooper pairs between two conventional superconductors connected by a normal conductor containing a quantum dot. The difference compared to the usual superconducting proximity effect is that the spin states of the tunneling Cooper pairs are split into singlet and triplet components by the electron spin-orbit coupling, which is assumed to be active in the normal conductor only. We demonstrate that the supercurrent carried by the spin-split Cooper pairs can be manipulated both mechanically and electrically for strengths of the spin-orbit coupling that can realistically be achieved by electrostatic gates.

Low temperature microhardness of Xe-intercalated fullerite C60

- The Vickers microhardness of Xe-intercalated polycrystalline fullerite C60 (XexC60, x~=0.35) is measured in a moderately low temperature range of 77 to 300 K. A high increase in the microhardness of the material (by a factor of 2 to 3) as compared to that of pure C60 single crystals is observed. It is shown that the step-like anomaly in the temperature dependences of the microhardness of pure C60 single crystals recorded under the orientational fcc-sc phase transition (Tc~=260 K) is also qualitatively retained for XexC60, but its onset is shifted by 40 K towards lower temperatures and the step becomes less distinct and more smeared. This behavior of H-barV(T) correlates with x-ray diffraction data, the analysis of which revealed a considerable influence of xenon interstitial atoms on the peculiar features of fullerite thermal expansion due to orientational phase transitions (see the paper by A.I. Prokhvatilov et al. in this issue).

- The lattice parameter a of fullerite C60 intercalated with N2 molecules is investigated in the temperature interval 6–295K by x-ray diffraction. It is found that the interstitial molecular N2 has a considerable effect on both the orientational phase transition temperature Tc and the orientational glass formation temperature Tg. Hysteresis of a(T) in the Tc and Tg regions is detected, along with an abrupt change in volume over the region defining Tc. Complete intercalation of C60 with N2 molecules results in a 0.2% increase in the lattice parameter, which persists over the whole temperature range. Evidence is also obtained that the interstitial guest molecular N2 induces a slight deformation of the cubic symmetry of the C60 host lattice.

- Ab initio band structure calculations are carried out for the higher borides MB6 and MB12. High-precision measurements of the elastic constants are performed for the compounds ZrB12, HoB12, ErB12, TmB12, LuB12, YB6 and LaB6 at low temperatures. The bulk properties of the borides are analyzed on the basis of the calculated equations of states and balanced crystal orbital overlap populations. Our calculations indicate that hexaborides with divalent metals, CaB6, SrB6, BaB6, and YbB6, are semiconductors with small energy gaps. The metallic MB6 hexaborides with trivalent M atoms are found to possess larger bulk moduli values. For dodecaborides the bulk moduli are found to be higher for MB12 with increased filling of the conduction band (ZrB12, HfB12, UB12) in comparison with M3+B12 compounds. The total energy calculations for different magnetic configurations in YbB12 point to the possibility of antiferromagnetic coupling between Yb3+ ions.
