Electron Spin Resonance Study of Graphene

Luka Ciric

Graphene, a honeycomb lattice of a single atom thick plane of carbon atoms has captivated the attention of physicists, materials scientists, and engineers because of its extraordinary physical properties. These include exceedingly high charge carrier mobil ...

Spectroscopic Studies on Semiconducting Interfaces with Giant Spin Splitting

Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

The application of an external magnetic field can lift the spin degeneracy of electronic states through its interaction with the electronic magnetic moment. A closely-related phenomenon is the Rashba-Bychkov (RB) effect where symmetry breaking at surfaces ...

Ni3TeO6-a collinear antiferromagnet with ferromagnetic honeycomb planes

Ivica Zivkovic, Helmuth Berger, Krunoslav Prsa

We report a comprehensive study of magnetic properties of Ni3TeO6. The system crystallizes in a noncentrosymmetric rhombohedral lattice, space group R3. There are three differently coordinated Ni atoms in the unit cell. Two of them form an almost planar ho ...

Spintronics: Conceptual Building Blocks

Jean-Philippe Ansermet

The purpose of this introduction to spintronics is to provide some elementary description of its conceptual building blocks. Thus, it is intended for a newcomer to the field. After recalling rudimentary descriptions of spin precession and spin relaxation, ...

Lithography-free study of spin torque

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Elena Murè

We developed a non-lithographic technique to contact sub-100 nm nanowires for spin transfer torque experiments. Co/Cu multilayers were grown by electrodeposition in nanoporous commercial polycarbonate membranes from a Co/Cu bath. A home-made sample holder ...

Spin Rings in Bistable Planar Semiconductor Microcavities

Romuald Houdré, Timothy Chi Hin Liew

A remarkable feature of exciton-polaritons is the strongly spin-dependent polariton-polariton interaction, which has been predicted to result in the formation of spin rings in real space [Shelykh et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 116401 (2008)]. Here we experi ...

Search for nuclear magnetic resonance evidence of spin accumulation

Aurore Rudolf

Developments towards an understanding of the nature of conductance at the interface between two different metallic layers – ferromagnetic and non magnetic – as well as the discovery of giant magnetoresistance have stirred attention from both the scientific ...

Microwave spin-torque excitation in a template-synthesized nanomagnet

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Elena Murè

A microwave-compatible lithography-free process is shown to allow the electrical contact of a single nanometric spin valve grown by template synthesis. The complex spin dynamics of a single nanomagnet is revealed by resonant microwave current excitations, ...

Multi-frequency high-pressure electron spin resonance study of low dimensonal organic conductors

Bálint Náfrádi

Electronic and magnetic properties of quasi-one dimensional ormore widely low-dimensional systems aswell as their related correlated electron phenomena have been at the very frontier of condensed matter physics for quite some time. The reduced dimensionali ...

Theoretical investigations of magnetic properties of MRI contrast agents and carbon nanostructures

Oleg Yazyev

The phenomenon of magnetism is one of the key components of today's technological progress. Magnetic interactions and magnetic materials are essential for the scientific disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology, making this subject truly multidiscipli ...
