Spin-wave modes in Ni80Fe20 thin-film antidot lattices are investigated using micromagnetic simulations and a semianalytical theoretical approach. The simulations reveal a rich eigenmode spectrum consisting of edge and center modes. We find both spatially ...
This thesis addresses the growth and magnetic characterization of 2D bimetallic nanostructures deposited by atomic beam epitaxy (ABE) on Pt(111). These structures possess both tunable high perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) and magnetic moment. These ...
Off-axis electron holography has been used to measure the built-in potential profile across an Al0.85In0.15N/AlN/GaN high electron mobility transistor heterostructure. Profile measurements indicated a polarization-induced electric field of 6.9 MV/cm within ...
Free-standing lithium niobate nanowires (LiNbO3) are synthesized by the hydrothermal route. The polarization response of the second harmonic generation (SHG) signal is measured in a single nanowire and used to identify the crystal orientation by matching w ...
The magnetic and magnetoresonance properties of a new single-crystal compound Ni-5(TeO3)(4)Cl-2 are studied. Measurements of the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility of the crystal in a wide temperature range (5-300 K) make it possible to conclude tha ...
We present a microscopic theory for the phonon-driven decay of the magnetization fluctuations in a wide class of nanomagnets where the dominant energy is set by isotropic exchange and/or uniaxial anisotropy. Based on the Zwanzig-Mori projection formalism, ...
We consider the effects of doping the S=3/2 kagome lattice with static, nonmagnetic impurities. By exact-diagonalization calculations on small clusters, we deduce the local spin correlations and magnetization distribution around a vacancy. As in the S=1/2 ...
The efficiency of magnetization transfer between different spins S such as chemically inequivalent carbon-13 nuclei in solid samples that are spinning at high frequencies about the magic angle can be enhanced by a phase-alternated recoupling irradiation sc ...
We show that the ferromagnetic anisotropy of a thin crystalline Fe3O4 film can be manipulated in situ via the application of tunable stress. The stress is exerted by a piezoelectric actuator, onto which the Fe3O4 film is cemented. The strain in the sample ...
We investigate the interplay of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions and an external field in spin-1∕2 dimers. For isolated dimers and at low field, we derive simple expressions for the staggered and uniform magnetizations which show that the orientation of ...
