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 ...

Nonuniform Spin-Wave Softening in Two-Dimensional Magnonic Crystals as a Tool for Opening Omnidirectional Magnonic Band Gaps

Dirk Grundler

By means of the plane-wave method we study spin-wave dynamics in two-dimensional bicomponent magnonic crystals based on a squeezed hexagonal lattice and consist of a permalloy thin film with cobalt inclusions. We explore the dependence of a spin-wave frequ ...

Revising the common understanding of metamagnetism in the molecule-based bisdithiazolyl BDTMe compound

Sergio Vela Llausi

The BDTMe molecule-based material is the first example of a thiazyl radical to exhibit metamagnetic behavior. Contrary to the common idea that metamagnetism occurs in low-dimensional systems, it is found that BDTMe magnetic topology consists of a complex 3 ...

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering of magnetic excitations under pressure

Matteo Rossi

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is an extremely valuable tool for the study of elementary, including magnetic, excitations in matter. The latest developments of this technique have mostly been aimed at improving the energy resolution and perform ...

Spin Excitations in a 4f-3d Heterodimer on MgO

Harald Brune, François Patthey, Christian Wäckerlin, Fabio Donati, Donat Fabian Natterer, Aparajita Singha, Zeljko Sljivancanin

We report on the magnetic properties of HoCo dimers as a model system for the smallest intermetallic compound of a lanthanide and a transition metal atom. The dimers are adsorbed on ultrathin MgO(100) films grown on Ag(100). New for 4f elements, we detect ...

Observation of two independent skyrmion phases in a chiral magnetic material

Helmuth Berger

Magnetic materials can host skyrmions, which are topologically non-trivial spin textures. In chiral magnets with cubic lattice symmetry, all previously observed skyrmion phases require thermal fluctuations to become thermodynamically stable in bulk materia ...

Phase control of spin waves based on a magnetic defect in a one-dimensional magnonic crystal

Dirk Grundler, Sho Watanabe

Magnonic crystals are interesting for spin-wave based data processing. We investigate one-dimensional magnonic crystals (1D MCs) consisting of bistable Co20Fe60B20 nanostripes separated by 75 nm wide air gaps. By adjusting the magnetic history, we program ...

Reentrant magnetism at the borderline between long-range antiferromagnetic order and spin-glass behavior in the B-site disordered perovskite system Ca2-x SrxFeRuO6

Philip Pattison

We report on the coexistence of magnetic order and disorder in the atomically disordered double perovskites Ca2FeRuO6 and CaSrFeRuO6. Powder x-ray and neutron diffraction were used to investigate the crystal structure and magnetic ordering of these oxides. ...

Neutron spectroscopy in the layered quantum magnet SrCu₂(BO₃)₂ and in transition metal phosphorus trisulfides (MPS₃)

Diane Virginie Marie Lançon

Collective magnetic excitations are a fascinating aspect of condensed matter physics, where neutron scattering can provide valuable insight into the magnetic properties of physical realisations of model systems. This thesis focuses on the excitation spectr ...
