Structure and magnetism of nanocrystalline and epitaxial (Mn,Zn,Fe)₃O₄ thin films

Journal Article Alaan, U. S. ; Wong, F. J. ; Grutter, A. J. ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

We study nanocrystalline (NC) textured Mn_0.5Zn_0.6Fe_1.9O₄ (MZFO) films, grown at room temperature on both isostructural and non-isostructural substrates, that show magnetization values significantly suppressed from epitaxial MZFO films. X-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements indicate larger ratios of Fe³⁺ to Fe²⁺ ions on the tetrahedral sites in the NC films compared to the epitaxialfilms. The magnetization loops of the NC films are shifted by 200-400 Oe at low temperatures. No such effect is observed in the epitaxialfilms. In conclusion, we hypothesize that the presence of a more structurally disordered, possibly magnetically frustrated, matrix exchange biases the crystallinemore » regions.« less

Direct observation and imaging of a spin-wave soliton with p-like symmetry

Journal Article Bonetti, S. ; Kukreja, R. ; Chen, Z. ; ... - Nature Communications

Spin waves, the collective excitations of spins, can emerge as nonlinear solitons at the nanoscale when excited by an electrical current from a nanocontact. These solitons are expected to have essentially cylindrical symmetry (that is, s-like), but no direct experimental observation exists to confirm this picture. Using a high-sensitivity time-resolved magnetic X-ray microscopy with 50 ps temporal resolution and 35 nm spatial resolution, we are able to create a real-space spin-wave movie and observe the emergence of a localized soliton with a nodal line, that is, with p-like symmetry. Moreover, micromagnetic simulations explain the measurements and reveal that the symmetrymore »« less

Large Exchange Coupling Between Localized Spins and Topological Bands in MnBi₂Te₄

Journal Article Padmanabhan, Hari ; Stoica, Vladimir A. ; Kim, Peter K. ; ... - Advanced Materials

AbstractMagnetism in topological materials creates phases exhibiting quantized transport phenomena with potential technological applications. The emergence of such phases relies on strong interaction between localized spins and the topological bands, and the consequent formation of an exchange gap. However, this remains experimentally unquantified in intrinsic magnetic topological materials. Here, this interaction is quantified in MnBi2Te4, a topological insulator with intrinsic antiferromagnetism. This is achieved by optically exciting Bi‐Te p states comprising the bulk topological bands and interrogating the consequent Mn 3d spin dynamics, using a multimodal ultrafast approach. Ultrafast electron scattering and magneto‐optic measurements show that the p states demagnetizemore »« less
