We report on spherical neutron polarimetry and unpolarized neutron diffraction in zero magnetic field as well as flipping ratio and static magnetization measurements in high magnetic fields on the multiferroic square lattice antiferromagnet Ba2CoGe2O7. We ...
The interfaces in complex oxides present unique properties exploitable in nanoscale devices. Recent studies on ferroelectric BiFeO3, BaTiO3, and Pb(Zr, Ti) O-3 have revealed an unusually high electric conductivity of the domain walls (DWs), adding another ...
Magnetite nanoparticles with a size of 5-6 nm with potential impact on biomedicine and information/communication technologies were synthesized by thermal decomposition of Fe(acac)(3) and subsequently coated with a silica shell exploiting a water-in-oil syn ...
The persisting demand of higher computing power and faster information processing keeps pushing scientists and engineers to explore novel materials and device structures. Within emerging functional materials, there is a focus on multiferroics materials and ...
Recent developments in the physics of non-magnetic ferroics identified possible functionality of domain walls in these materials, which specifies the current interest to the internal structure of the walls. In this context, the wall thickness itself can be ...
We investigate the magnetic coupling of Ni centers embedded in two-dimensional metal-coordination networks self-assembled from 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) molecules on Ag(100) and Au (111) surfaces. X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurement ...
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 ...
Motifs of periodic modulations are encountered in a variety of natural systems, where at least two rival states are present. In strongly correlated electron systems, such behaviour has typically been associated with competition between short-and long-range ...
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 ...
The olivine compound Mn2GeO4 is shown to feature both a ferroelectric polarization and a ferromagnetic magnetization that are directly coupled and point along the same direction. We show that a spin spiral generates ferroelectricity, and a canted commensur ...
