Magnetic excitations in the topological semimetal YbMnSb2

Jian Rui Soh

We report neutron scattering measurements on YbMnSb2 which shed light on the nature of the magnetic moments and their interaction with Dirac fermions. Using half-polarized neutron diffraction we measured the field-induced magnetization distribution in the ...

Maple leaf antiferromagnet in a magnetic field

Frédéric Mila, Ronny Thomale, Pratyay Ghosh

We analyze the quantum antiferromagnet on the maple leaf lattice in the presence of a magnetic field. Starting from its exact dimer ground state and for a magnetic field strength of the order of the local dimer spin-exchange coupling, we perform a strong-c ...

A diamond spin qubit scanning probe microscope

Dinesh Kevin Mathais Pinto

The properties of a physical system only exist in relation to its environment. This thesis presents the development of a novel spin qubit scanning probe microscope operating over a wide range of environmental conditions. The qubit, which sits at the heart ...

Broadband spectroscopy and inelastic light scattering on the canted antiferromagnet hematite for antiferromagnetic magnonics

Mohammad Hamdi

Collective spin excitations propagating in magnetically ordered materials are called spin waves (SWs) or magnons. They are promising for low-power and beyond-CMOS information processing, which do not suffer from the ohmic losses. SWs in ferromagnets (antif ...

Order parameters for antiferromagnetic structures: A first-principles study of iridium manganese

Anirudh Raju Natarajan

We use density-functional theory to study the ordered states of iridium manganese, demonstrating a simple but powerful method for describing magnetic structures and the transitions among them. As an illustrative example, the coupling of magnetism and cryst ...

Small-angle neutron scattering study of mesoscale magnetic disordering and skyrmion phase suppression in the frustrated chiral magnet Co6.75Zn6.75Mn6.51

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Jonathan White

Co-Zn-Mn chiral cubic magnets display versatile magnetic skyrmion phases, including equilibrium phases stable far above and far below room temperature, and the facile creation of robust far-from-equilibrium skyrmion states. In this system, compositional di ...

Canted antiferromagnetic phases in the candidate layered Weyl material EuMnSb2

Xiaoqiang Wang

EuMnSb2 is a candidate topological material which can be tuned towards a Weyl semimetal, but there are differing reports for its antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases. The coupling of bands dominated by pure Sb layers hosting topological fermions to Mn and Eu mag ...

Magnetic structure of the topological semimetal Co3Sn2S2

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Jian Rui Soh

Co3Sn2S2 has recently been predicted to be a Weyl semimetal in which magnetic order is key to its behavior as a topological material. Here, we report unpolarized neutron diffraction and spherical neutron polarimetry measurements, supported by magnetization ...

Antiferromagnetic resonance in a-Fe2O3 up to its Neel temperature

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Marcin Bialek

Hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) is an antiferromagnetic material with a very low spin damping and high Neel temperature. The temperature dependence of the antiferromagnetic resonance in a bulk single crystal of hematite was characterized from room temperature up to ...

Magneto-optical study of metamagnetic transitions in the antiferromagnetic phase of alpha-RuCl3

Zhe Wang

alpha-RuCl3 is a promising candidate material to realize the so far elusive quantum spin liquid ground state. However, at low temperatures, the coexistence of different exchange interactions couple the effective pseudospins into an antiferromagnetically zi ...

Symmetry enhanced spin-Nernst effect in honeycomb antiferromagnetic transition metal trichalcogenide monolayers

Mohammad Hamdi, Seyedeh Fatemeh Haddadi Givi

We investigate systematically the spin-Nernst effect in Neel and zigzag ordered honeycomb antiferromagnets. Monolayers of transition-metal trichalcogenides, MnPSe3, MnPS3, and VPS3 show an antiferromagnetic Neel order while CrSiTe3, NiPS3, and NiPSe3 show ...
