Topologically Nontrivial Magnon Bands in Artificial Square Spin Ices with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction [Topologically Non-Trivial Magnon Bands in Artificial Square Spin Ices Subject to Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction]

Journal Article Iacocca, Ezio ; Heinonen, Olle - Physical Review Applied

Systems that exhibit topologically protected edge states are interesting both from a fundamental point of view as well as for potential applications, the latter because of the absence of backscattering and robustness to perturbations. It is desirable to be able to control and manipulate such edge states. Here, we demonstrate using a semi-analytical model that artificial square ices can incorporate both features: an interfacial Dzyaloshinksii-Moriya gives rise to topologically non-trivial magnon bands, and the equilibrium state of the spin ice is reconfigurable with different states having different magnon dispersions and topology. Micromagnetic simulations are used to determine the magnetization equilibriummore »« less

Fully relativistic spin-polarized LMTO calculations of the magneto-optical Kerr effect of {ital d} and {ital f} ferromagnetic materials.thinspthinsp I.thinspthinsp Chromium spinel chalcogenides

Journal Article Antonov, V N ; Antropov, V P ; Harmon, B N ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

CuCr{sub 2}Se{sub 4} is one of the few compounds that exhibits a magneto-optical (MO) Kerr angle of greater than one degree at room temperature. To better understand the origin of this effect, the MO properties of ferromagnetic CuCr{sub 2}X{sub 4} (X=S,thinspSe,thinspTe) spinel chalcogenides are evaluated using fully relativistic local-density electronic structure calculations. Treating the 3d electronic states within the standard band description, excellent agreement with the measured MO spectra is obtained. The calculations are analyzed to further elucidate aspects of the Kerr rotation. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}

Journal Article Antonov, V N ; Harmon, B N ; Yaresko, A N ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

The optical and magneto-optical (MO) spectra of binary uranium compounds U{sub 3}X{sub 4} (X=P, As, Sb, Bi, Se, and Te) with the Th{sub 3}P{sub 4} crystal structure, and the ternary UCu{sub 2}P{sub 2} compound are investigated from first principles, using the fully relativistic Dirac LMTO band structure method and density-functional theory in the local spin-density approximation (LSDA). The electronic structure is obtained with the LSDA, as well as with the so-called LSDA+U approach which contains an explicit Coulomb interaction {ital U} for localized orbitals. Within a bandlike description of the 5f electrons, excellent agreement with the measured MO spectra ismore »« less

Journal Article Antonov, V N ; Harmon, B N ; Perlov, A Y ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

The optical and magneto-optical spectra of neodymium NaCl-type compounds NdX (X=S, Se, and Te) and Nd{sub 3}S{sub 4} with Th{sub 3}P{sub 4} crystal structure are investigated theoretically using an energy-band approach in combination with the linear-response formalism. The energy band structure is obtained within the local spin-density approximation (LSDA), and within its extension which explicitly takes into account the onsite 4f Coulomb interaction {ital U} (LSDA+U). Although the LSDA predicts a large Kerr rotation in the compounds under consideration, we find that the LSDA+U gives a better description of the Kerr spectra of NdS and Nd{sub 3}S{sub 4}.

Ultrafast supercontinuum fiber-laser based pump-probe scanning magneto-optical Kerr effect microscope for the investigation of electron spin dynamics in semiconductors at cryogenic temperatures with picosecond time and micrometer spatial resolution

Journal Article Henn, T. ; Kiessling, T., E-mail: tobias.kiessling@physik.uni-wuerzburg.de ; Ossau, W. ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

We describe a two-color pump-probe scanning magneto-optical Kerr effect microscope which we have developed to investigate electron spin phenomena in semiconductors at cryogenic temperatures with picosecond time and micrometer spatial resolution. The key innovation of our microscope is the usage of an ultrafast “white light” supercontinuum fiber-laser source which provides access to the whole visible and near-infrared spectral range. Our Kerr microscope allows for the independent selection of the excitation and detection energy while avoiding the necessity to synchronize the pulse trains of two separate picosecond laser systems. The ability to independently tune the pump and probe wavelength enables themore »« less
