Long-Distance Coherent Propagation of High-Velocity Antiferromagnetic Spin Waves

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Rundong Yuan, Cheng Song

We report on coherent propagation of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin waves over a long distance (similar to 10 mu m) at room temperature in a canted AFM alpha-Fe2O3 owing to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Unprecedented high group velocities (up ...

Long-distance coherent propagation of magnon polarons in a ferroelectric-ferromagnetic heterostructure

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Peng Chen, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Jinlong Wang

We experimentally demonstrate the coherent propagation of magnon polarons, the hybridized excitations formed by the coupling of spin waves and Rayleigh/Love surface acoustic waves, in a heterostructure consisting of ferroelectric BaTiO3 and ferromagnetic L ...

Nonlocal Detection of Interlayer Three-Magnon Coupling

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Yu Zhang, Jilei Chen, Song Liu

A leading nonlinear effect in magnonics is the interaction that splits a high-frequency magnon into two low-frequency magnons with conserved linear momentum. Here, we report experimental observation of nonlocal three-magnon scattering between spatially sep ...

Large Anomalous Nernst Angle in Co2MnGa Thin Film

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang, Song Liu

The new trends for anomalous Nernst effect (ANE)-based thermoelectric devices require materials with large ANE values to realize the scalable generation of voltage. Recently, very large ANE values have been observed in single crystals of some novel magneti ...

Magic-angle magnonic nanocavity in a magnetic moiré superlattice

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu, Wenhao Jiang

Moiré superlattices have recently been extensively studied in both electronic and photonic systems, e.g., magic-angle bilayer graphene showing superconductivity and twisted bilayer photonic crystals leading to magic-angle lasers. However, the moiré physics ...

A Position-Control-Based Framework for Dynamic and Robust Quadrupedal Trotting

Zeya Yin, Boxing Wang, Song Liu, Haoyu Zhang

With the emergence of more and more torque-controlled robots, the agility of leg locomotion has been promoted to a new level, which, however, seems also to imply that only torque-controlled robots are appropriate for leg locomotion. This paper demonstrates ...

Chiral Spin-Wave Velocities Induced by All-Garnet Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction in Ultrathin Yttrium Iron Garnet Films

Dirk Grundler, Ping Che, Peng Gao, Haiming Yu, Yuehui Li, Sa Tu, Jilei Chen, Jianyu Zhang, Song Liu, Tao Liu

Spin waves can probe the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), which gives rise to topological spin textures, such as skyrmions. However, the DMI has not yet been reported in yttrium iron garnet (YIG) with arguably the lowest damping for spin waves. In ...

Record thermopower found in an IrMn-based spintronic stack

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Peng Gao, Sa Tu, Haiming Yu, Junfeng Hu, Jianyu Zhang, Yao Zhang, Song Liu

The Seebeck effect converts thermal gradients into electricity. As an approach to power technologies in the current Internet-of-Things era, on-chip energy harvesting is highly attractive, and to be effective, demands thin film materials with large Seebeck ...

Regulating the anomalous Hall and Nernst effects in Heusler-based trilayers

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Sa Tu, Junfeng Hu, Song Liu

Anomalous Hall and anomalous Nernst properties of thin MgO/Co-2Fe0.4Mn0.6Si/Pd stacks with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) revealed the presence of the magnetic proximity effect (MPE) in the Pd layer. The MPE is evidenced by nanometer range thickne ...

Anomalous Nernst effect in Co2MnGa thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Simon Granville, Sa Tu, Junfeng Hu, Yao Zhang, Song Liu

The thermoelectric and transport properties of MgO/Co2MnGa/Pd stacks with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy were measured. For a nominal 3.3 nm Co2MnGa thickness, the anomalous Nernst coefficient and the Nernst angle at room temperature were found to be 0. ...
