Optically Triggered Neel Vector Manipulation of a Metallic Antiferromagnet Mn2Au under Strain

Alexey Sapozhnik

The absence of stray fields, their insensitivity to external magnetic fields, and ultrafast dynamics make antiferromagnets promising candidates for active elements in spintronic devices. Here, we demonstrate manipulation of the Neel vector in the metallic ...

Field-dependent roughness of moving domain walls in a Pt/Co/Pt magnetic thin film

Elisabeth Agoritsas

The creep motion of domain walls driven by external fields in magnetic thin films is described by universal features related to the underlying depinning transition. One key parameter in this description is the roughness exponent characterizing the growth o ...
