Low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy has been employed to analyze the formation of quantum well states (QWS) in two-dimensional gold islands, containing between 50 and 200 atoms, on MgO thin films. The energy position and symmetry of the eigenstat ...
We report on the magnetic properties of single Co atoms on graphene on Pt(111). By means of scanning tunneling microscopy spin-excitation spectroscopy, we infer a magnetic anisotropy of K = -8.1 meV with out-of-plane hard axis and a magnetic moment of 2.2 ...
In standard Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) electron spins are polarized at low temperatures in a strong magnetic field and this polarization is transferred to the nuclear spins by means of a microwave field. To obtain high nuclear polarizations cryogen ...
We report on NMR and torque measurements on the frustrated quasi-two-dimensional spin-dimer system SrCu2(BO3)(2) in magnetic fields up to 34 T that reveal a sequence of magnetization plateaus at 1/8, 2/15, 1/6, and 1/4 of the saturation and two incommensur ...
The paramagnetic NMR study of HoM2N@C-80-I-h and Ho2MN@C-80-I-h nitride cluster fullerenes (M = Sc, Lu, Y) reveals strong dependence of Ho-induced paramagnetic shifts (delta(para)) in C-13 NMR spectra on the size of the diamagnetic metal in the cluster. In ...
Muon spin resonance (mu SR) is a powerful technique for investigating the local magnetic fields in materials through implanted muons. Here we report a mu SR study of chemically produced thermally exfoliated graphene. Our results provide an experimental ans ...
In order to elucidate the magnetic ground state of Sr2VO4, we have measured muon spin rotation and relaxation (mu+SR) spectra of a powder sample in the temperature range between 1.8 and 140 K. As a result, we have clarified that the transition at 105 K is ...
Graphene is theoretically expected to be a highly suitable material for spintronic and quantum computation applications. Current experimental reports assign surprisingly low spin lifetimes to graphene and related carbon structures. Recently, we showed a so ...
Single phase and strained LuMnO3 thin films are discovered to display coexisting ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic orders. A large moment ferromagnetism (approximate to 1 mu(B)), which is absent in bulk samples, is shown to display a magnetic moment dist ...
Ground-state and low-energy excitations of the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet CuSe2O5 where finite interchain interactions promote long-range antiferromagnetic order below T-N = 17 K, were experimentally studied using bulk magnetization, neutron dif ...
