Large Orbital Moment of Two Coupled Spin-Half Co Ions in a Complex on Gold

Stefano Rusponi, Chao Li, Boris Sorokin

The magnetic propertiesof transition-metal ions aregenerallydescribed by the atomic spins of the ions and their exchange coupling.The orbital moment, usually largely quenched due the ligand field,is then seen as a perturbation. In such a scheme, S = 1/2 io ...

Magnon-phonon interactions enhance the gap at the Dirac point in the spin-wave spectra of CrI3 two-dimensional magnets

Iurii Timrov

Recent neutron-diffraction experiments in honeycomb CrI3 quasi-2D ferromagnets have evinced the existence of a gap at the Dirac point in their spin-wave spectra. The existence of this gap has been attributed to strong in-plane Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya or Kita ...
