High Cr (9-14% Cr) ferritic/martensitic steels are considered as one of the most promising candidates for structural materials for advanced nuclear power plants. Therefore, the understanding of the evolution of properties under operation conditions is of p ...
Exact ground states of a spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg model on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice with Heisenberg intradimer and Ising interdimer couplings are found by two independent rigorous procedures. The first method uses a unitary transformation to establi ...
In spin caloritronics, ferromagnetic samples subject to relatively large in-plane temperature gradients T have turned out to be extremely interesting. We report on a preparation technique that allows us to create freely suspended permalloy/Pt hybrid struct ...
We investigate the magnonic band structure of in-plane magnetized two-dimensional magnonic crystals composed of cobalt dots embedded into a permalloy antidot lattice. Our analysis is based on the results of numerical calculations carried out by the plane w ...
A method of storing one or more bits of information comprising: forming a magnetic bubble; and storing a said bit of information encoded in a typology of a domain wall of said magnetic bubble. Preferably a bit is encoded using a symmetric topological state ...
The low-temperature microscopic magnetic properties of the quasi-2D heavy-fermion compound, CePt2In7 are investigated by using a positive muon-spin rotation and relaxation (mu+SR) technique. Clear evidence for the formation of a commensurate antiferromagne ...
We present a detailed study on the strain-induced magnetic domain structure of a (La,Sr)MnO3 thin film epitaxially grown on a BaTiO3 substrate through the use of polarization-dependent X-ray photoemission electron microscopy and X-ray absorption spectrosco ...
Using superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry techniques, we have studied the change in magnetization versus applied ac electric field, i.e. the magnetoelectric (ME) susceptibility dM/dE, in the chiral-lattice ME insulator Cu2OSeO3. Measur ...
Ground states of the frustrated spin-1 Ising-Heisenberg two-leg ladder with Heisenberg intra-rung coupling and only Ising interaction along legs and diagonals are rigorously found by taking advantage of local conservation of the total spin on each rung. Th ...
This thesis works reports on the magnetic properties of single transition metal atoms and hydrogenated compounds adsorbed on crystal surfaces. It is an experimental study, based on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), initiated by the project of demonstrat ...
