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 ...

Magnons, worms and nanogratings in artificial magnetic quasicrystals

Sho Watanabe

Magnons (spin waves, SWs) are elementary spin excitations in magnetically ordered materials. They are the promising quanta for the transmission and processing of information. Magnons can be coupled to the electromagnetic waves utilized for the wireless com ...

Improved properties of soft magnetic composites with hollow microstructures

Yves Perriard, Xiaotao Ren

Soft Magnetic Composites (SMCs) possess promising electromagnetic characteristics and attract intense research and application interest in the engineering community. Fabrication of composites with customized architecture is feasible due to the recent advan ...

Magnetic and structural properties of Ni-substituted magnetoelectric Co4Nb2O9

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Ivica Zivkovic, Virgile Yves Favre, Hadi Papi, Hossein Ahmadvand

The magnetic and structural properties of polycrystalline Co4-xNixNb2O9 (x = 1, 2) have been investigated by neutron powder diffraction, magnetization and heat capacity measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. For x = 1, the compound ...

2019

In the past decade, the engineering community has conceived, manufactured and tested micro-swimmers, i.e. microscopic devices which can be steered in their intended environment. Foreseen applications range from microsurgery and targeted drug delivery to en ...

Prokaryotes have the ability to walk on surfaces using type IV pili (TFP), a motility mechanism known as twitching(1,2). Molecular motors drive TFP extension and retraction, but whether and how these movements are coordinated is unknown(3). Here, we reveal ...

Study and Characterization of Magnetic Materials for Beam Intensity Monitors at CERN

Silvia Aguilera Murciano

The number of particles in the beams used at CERN is measured by a family of devices called the Beam Current Transformers (BCTs). One of such devices is the DC Current Transformer (DCCT) measuring the total number of particles in an accelerator. The DCCT i ...

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 ...
