Fluctuation-driven topological Hall effect in room-temperature itinerant helimagnet Fe3Ga4

Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Priya Ranjan Baral, Youngro Lee

The topological Hall effect (THE) is a hallmark of a non-trivial geometric spin arrangement in a magnetic metal, originating from a finite scalar spin chirality (SSC). The associated Berry phase is often a consequence of non-coplanar magnetic structures id ...

Dinitrogen Reduction and Functionalization by a Siloxide Supported Thulium-Potassium Complex for the Formation of Ammonia or Hydrazine Derivatives

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic

The dinitrogen (N2) chemistry of lanthanides remains less developed compared to the d-block metals and lanthanide-promoted N2 functionalization chemistry in well-defined lanthanide complexes remains elusive. Here we report the synthesis and characterizatio ...

High‐Entropy Magnetism of Murunskite

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Thomas La Grange, Davor Tolj, Rongrong Cai

Murunskite (K 2 FeCu 3 S 4 ) bridges the two known families of high‐temperature superconductors, cuprates and iron‐pnictides, structurally and electronically. Like these families, murunskite exhibits an antiferromagnetic (AF)‐like response with an ordered ...

Facile N-C bond cleavage and arene reduction by a transient uranium(ii) complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Andrzej Sienkiewicz, Ivica Zivkovic

Complexes of uranium(ii) remain extremely rare and their reactivity is practically unexplored. Here we report that the reduction of the heteroleptic bis-aryloxide U(iii) complex [U(κ6-{(tBu2ArO)2Me2-cyclam})I], A, yields a rare and highly reactive U(ii) in ...

Catalytic and stoichiometric stepwise conversion of side-on bound dinitrogen to ammonia mediated by a uranium complex

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic, Lucile Sylvie Danielle Chatelain

The well-defined catalytic conversion of dinitrogen (N2) to ammonia (NH3) by molecular complexes is of fundamental interest and important for providing an atomic-level understanding of reactivity that can be related to industrial and biological nitrogen-fi ...

Structure and Magnetic Properties of a Series of Uranium Bis-Siloxide Complexes

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ivica Zivkovic, Luciano Barluzzi

Despite their synthetic interest and potential attractive properties, the preparation of heteroleptic U(III) complexes containing monodentate ligands remains challenging. Here we report the synthesis, structure and magnetic properties of three heteroleptic ...

Cavity-magnon-polariton spectroscopy of strongly hybridized electro-nuclear spin excitations in LiHoF4

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Richard Gaal, Peter Babkevich

We first present a formalism that incorporates the input-output formalism and the linear response theory to employ cavity-magnon-polariton coupling as a spectroscopic tool for investigating strongly hybridized electro-nuclear spin excitations. A microscopi ...

Dynamic Jahn-Teller effect in the strong spin-orbit coupling regime

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Oleg Yazyev, Ivica Zivkovic, Jian Rui Soh, Ravi Yadav, Jana Pásztorová, Davor Tolj

Exotic quantum phases, arising from a complex interplay of charge, spin, lattice and orbital degrees of freedom, are of immense interest to a wide research community. A well-known example of such an entangled behavior is the Jahn-Teller effect, where the l ...

Dynamics of K2Ni2(SO4)3 governed by proximity to a 3D spin liquid model

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Jian Rui Soh, Virgile Yves Favre

Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) have become a key area of research in magnetism due to their remarkable properties, such as long-range entanglement, fractional excitations, and topologically protected phenomena. Recently, the search for QSLs has expanded into ...

Weyl metallic state induced by helical magnetic order

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Jan Hugo Dil, Jian Rui Soh, Xupeng Yang

In the rapidly expanding field of topological materials there is growing interest in systems whose topological electronic band features can be induced or controlled by magnetism. Magnetic Weyl semimetals, which contain linear band crossings near the Fermi ...
