Magnetic Direct-Write Skyrmion Nanolithography
2020
Magnetic skyrmions are stable spin textures with quasi-particle behavior and attract significant interest in fundamental and applied physics. The metastability of magnetic skyrmions at zero magnetic field is particularly important to enable, for instance, a skyrmion racetrack memory. Here, the results of the nucleation of stable skyrmions and formation of ordered skyrmion lattices by magnetic force microscopy in (Pt/CoFeSiB/W)n multilayers, exploiting the additive effect of the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, are presented. The appropriate conditions under which skyrmion lattices are confined with a dense two-dimensional liquid phase are identified. A crucial parameter to con…
Dynamically stabilized spin superfluidity in frustrated magnets
2020
We study the onset of spin superfluidity, namely coherent spin transport mediated by a topological spin texture, in frustrated exchange-dominated magnetic systems, engendered by an external magnetic field. We show that for typical device geometries used in nonlocal magnetotransport experiments, the magnetic field stabilizes a spin superflow against fluctuations, up to a critical current. For a given current, the critical field depends on the precessional frequency of the texture, which can be separately controlled. We contrast such dynamic stabilization of a spin superfluid to the conventional approaches based on topological stabilization.
Exciton mass increase in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well in a transverse magnetic field
2017
In this work we have investigated the exciton reflectance spectra of a high quality heterostructure with a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well in a transverse magnetic field (Voigt geometry). It has been shown that application of the magnetic field leads to a decrease of energy distance between spectral features related to the excitonlike polariton modes. This effect has been treated as the magneto-induced increase of the exciton mass. We have shown that the hydrogenlike and diamagnetic exciton models are insufficient to describe the exciton behavior in the intermediate magnetic fields studied. Considering the symmetry of the problem, we have developed a phenomenological model which adequately describ…
Antihydrogen production in a combined trap
1993
In this paper we study the properties of a Paul trap with a superimposed magnetic field (combined trap) and discuss the possibility of using this trap to simultaneously store positrons and antiprotons to form antihydrogen.
Instabilities of an electron cloud in a Penning trap
2003
We have measured the storage instabilities of electrons in a Penning trap at low magnetic fields. These measurements are carried out as a function of the trapping voltage, for different magnetic fields. It is seen that these instabilities occur at the same positions when the trapping voltage is expressed as a percentage of the maximum voltage, given by the stability limit. The characteristic frequencies at which these instabilities occur, obey a relation that is given by n zω z + n +ω + + n -ω - = 0, where ω z, ω + and ω - are the axial, perturbed cyclotron and the magnetron frequencies of the trapped electrons respectively, and the n's are integers. The reason for these instabilities are a…
Identification of strongly correlated spin liquid in herbertsmithite
2011
Exotic quantum spin liquid (QSL) is formed with such hypothetic particles as fermionic spinons carrying spin 1/2 and no charge. Here we calculate its thermodynamic and relaxation properties. Our calculations unveil the fundamental properties of QSL, forming strongly correlated Fermi system located at a fermion condensation quantum phase transition. These are in a good agreement with experimental data and allow us to detect the behavior of QSL as that observed in heavy fermion metals. We predict that the thermal resistivity of QSL under the application of magnetic fields at fixed temperature demonstrates a very specific behavior. The key features of our findings are the presence of spin-char…
Evolution of an isolated monopole in a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate
2016
We simulate the decay dynamics of an isolated monopole defect in the nematic vector of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate during the polar-to-ferromagnetic phase transition of the system. Importantly, the decay of the monopole occurs in the absence of external magnetic fields and is driven principally by the dynamical instability due to the ferromagnetic spin-exchange interactions. An initial isolated monopole is observed to relax into a polar-core spin vortex, thus demonstrating the spontaneous transformation of a point defect of the polar order parameter manifold to a line defect of the ferromagnetic manifold. We also investigate the dynamics of an isolated monopole pierced by a quantum vo…
Mössbauer Spectroscopic Evidence of Angle-Dependent Intersystem Crossing in LiNbO3:Fe3+
1986
M\"ossbauer emission spectra of LiNb${\mathrm{O}}_{3}$:$^{57}\mathrm{Co}$ single crystals in magnetic fields up to 5 T at 4.2 K show initial populations of the $^{6}A_{1\mathrm{g}}$ Zeeman substates of ${\mathrm{Fe}}^{3+}$ which depend strongly on the angle between the crystallographic $c$ axis and the magnetic field. This is interpreted in terms of a crystal-field effect on excited states which influences the initial populations of the Zeeman sublevels of the $^{6}A_{1\mathrm{g}}$ ground term after the electron-capture decay of $^{57}\mathrm{Co}$. An intersystem crossing process due to orbit-lattice interaction can fairly well explain the angular dependence.
Magnetorheology: Fluids, Structures and Rheology
2002
Magnetorheological suspensions are complex fluids which show a transition from a liquid behavior to a solid one upon application of a magnetic field. This transition is due to the the attractive dipolar forces between the particles which have been magnetized by the applied field. The formation of a network of particles or aggregates throughout the suspension is the basic phenomena which is responsible for the strength of the solid phase. In this paper we shall give an overview on the fluids and their properties and we shall especially emphasize the interplay between magnetic forces which are responsible for the gelling of the suspension and on the other hand of hydrodynamic and thermal forc…
Magnetic Field and Short-Circuit Reactance Calculation of the 3-Phase Transformer with Symmetrical Amorphous Core
2006
Magnetically symmetric, 3- phase transformer has been analysed. For the two variants of the windings, the calculation results have been compared with the measured ones. Magnetic flux density components were calculated in and out of the core. The flux distribution and short-circuit reactance have been verified experimentally and a good agreement has been obtained.
