Magnetization and61Ni Mössbauer effect study of the ternary arsenide CrNiAs
2008
The results of x-ray diffraction, dc magnetization, and 61Ni M?ssbauer spectroscopy studies of the ternary arsenide CrNiAs are reported. This compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fe2P-type structure (space group ) with the lattice parameters a = 6.1128(2)?? and c = 3.6585(1)??. CrNiAs is a mean-field ferromagnet with Curie temperature TC = 171.9(1)?K and the critical exponents ? = 0.514(18), ? = 1.010(16), and ? = 2.922(10). The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility above TC follows the modified Curie?Weiss law with a paramagnetic Curie temperature of 176.0(3)?K and effective magnetic moment per transition metal atom of 2.42(1)??B. The magnetic moment per formula unit a…
Itinerant Electron Metamagnetism in η-Carbide-Type Compound Co3Mo3C
2010
We report the magnetic properties of the cobalt molybdenum η-carbide-type compounds Co 3 Mo 3 C and Co 3 Mo 3 N. The magnetic susceptibility χ of Co 3 Mo 3 C shows a Curie–Weiss temperature dependence at high temperatures and a broad maximum at around 100 K, whereas that of Co 3 Mo 3 N shows a nearly temperature-independent enhanced Pauli paramagnetic behavior. The absence of a magnetic long-range order was confirmed by the nuclear magnetic resonance technique in both the compounds. As expected from the broad maximum of χ, we observed an itinerant electron metamagnetic transition at around 37 T in Co 3 Mo 3 C.
Geometric, electronic, and magnetic structure ofCo2FeSi: Curie temperature and magnetic moment measurements and calculations
2005
In this work a simple concept was used for a systematic search for materials with high spin polarization. It is based on two semiempirical models. First, the Slater-Pauling rule was used for estimation of the magnetic moment. This model is well supported by electronic structure calculations. The second model was found particularly for ${\mathrm{Co}}_{2}$ based Heusler compounds when comparing their magnetic properties. It turned out that these compounds exhibit seemingly a linear dependence of the Curie temperature as function of the magnetic moment. Stimulated by these models, ${\mathrm{Co}}_{2}\mathrm{FeSi}$ was revisited. The compound was investigated in detail concerning its geometrical…
Modification of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya-Interaction-Stabilized Domain Wall Chirality by Driving Currents
2018
We measure and analyze the chirality of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya-interaction (DMI) stabilized spin textures in multilayers of $\mathrm{Ta}|{\mathrm{Co}}_{20}{\mathrm{F}}_{60}{\mathrm{B}}_{20}|\mathrm{MgO}$. The effective DMI is measured experimentally using domain wall motion measurements, both in the presence (using spin-orbit torques) and absence of driving currents (using magnetic fields). We observe that the current-induced domain wall motion yields a change in effective DMI magnitude and opposite domain wall chirality when compared to field-induced domain wall motion (without current). We explore this effect, which we refer to as current-induced DMI, by providing possible explanations for…
Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic properties of a new cyanide-bridged mixed-valence copper(I)/copper(II) clathrate
2013
A unique cyanide-bridge mixed-valence CuI/CuII clathrate of formula [CuI2(CN)3][{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)](CF3SO3)2 [tren = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine] containing cyanide-bridged [{CuII(tren)}2(μ-CN)]3 + binuclear cations stacked between anionic honeycomb layered copper(I) cyanide networks, was synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Variable-temperature magnetic susceptibility studies showed that the cyanide bridge mediates a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the copper(II) centers (J = − 160 cm− 1, the spin Hamiltonian being defined as H = − JSA⋅SB).
On/Off Photoswitching in a Cyanide-Bridged {Fe2Co2} Magnetic Molecular Square
2013
International audience; A repeatable bidirectional paramagnetic ↔ diamagnetic photomagnetic effect has been observed in the cyanide-bridged Fe-Co square complex {[Fe{B(pz)(4)}(CN)(3)](2)[Co(bik)(2)](2)}(ClO(4))(2)*3H(2)O [B(pz)(4) = tetrapyrazolylborate, bik = bis(1-methylimidazol-2-yl)ketone]. Magnetic measurements and low-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments have shown that a complete electron transfer from the diamagnetic Fe(II)-Co(III) state to the paramagnetic Fe(III)-Co(II) metastable state is induced by 808 nm laser light irradiation, whereas the diamagnetic state is recovered in an almost quantitative yield under irradiation at 532 nm.

Ondas de D'yakonov en metamateriales
2013
En este trabajo Fin de Máster se analiza en profundidad la propagación de ondas de superficie localizadas en la interfase entre una nano-estructura semi-infinita laminada metal-dieléctrico y un dieléctrico. Se demuestra que las ondas de superficie propuestas por M. I. D'yakonov (llamadas dyakonones) con polarización híbrida se propagarán en un amplio rango angular. Como consecuencia, los paquetes de ondas basados en dyakonones (DWPs) pueden formar haces con anchuras menores que las longitudes de onda de trabajo. La dispersión cuadrática aparente del haz, sin embargo, es debida a los efectos de disipación en el metal. I analyze propagation of ultralocalized surface waves that takes place at …
The 2020 skyrmionics roadmap
2020
The notion of non-trivial topological winding in condensed matter systems represents a major area of present-day theoretical and experimental research. Magnetic materials offer a versatile platform that is particularly amenable for the exploration of topological spin solitons in real space such as skyrmions. First identified in non-centrosymmetric bulk materials, the rapidly growing zoology of materials systems hosting skyrmions and related topological spin solitons includes bulk compounds, surfaces, thin films, heterostructures, nano-wires and nano-dots. This underscores an exceptional potential for major breakthroughs ranging from fundamental questions to applications as driven by an inte…
Correlation between spin structure oscillations and domain wall velocities
2013
Magnetic sensing and logic devices based on the motion of magnetic domain walls rely on the precise and deterministic control of the position and the velocity of individual magnetic domain walls in curved nanowires. Varying domain wall velocities have been predicted to result from intrinsic effects such as oscillating domain wall spin structure transformations and extrinsic pinning due to imperfections. Here we use direct dynamic imaging of the nanoscale spin structure that allows us for the first time to directly check these predictions. We find a new regime of oscillating domain wall motion even below the Walker breakdown correlated with periodic spin structure changes. We show that the e…
