Title: Strain-induced high-temperature perovskite ferromagnetic insulator

Abstract

Ferromagnetic insulators are required for many new magnetic devices, such as dissipationless quantum-spintronic devices, magnetic tunneling junctions, etc. Ferromagnetic insulators with a high Curie temperature and a high-symmetry structure are critical integration with common single-crystalline oxide films or substrates. So far, the commonly used ferromagnetic insulators mostly possess low-symmetry structures associated with a poor growth quality and widespread properties. The few known high-symmetry materials either have extremely low Curie temperatures (≤16 K), or require chemical doping of an otherwise antiferromagnetic matrix. Here we present compelling evidence that the LaCoO₃ single-crystalline thin film under tensile strain is a rare undoped perovskite ferromagnetic insulator with a remarkably high T_C of up to 90 K. Both experiments and first-principles calculations demonstrate tensile-strain-induced ferromagnetism which does not exist in bulk LaCoO₃. The ferromagnetism is strongest within a nearly stoichiometric structure, disappearing when the Co²⁺ defect concentration reaches about 10%. Furthermore, significant impact of the research includes demonstration of a strain-induced high-temperature ferromagnetic insulator, successful elevation of the transition over the liquid-nitrogen temperature, and high potential for integration into large-area device fabrication processes.

Strain-induced majority carrier inversion in ferromagnetic epitaxial $LaCo O_{3 - δ}$ thin films

Journal Article Chaturvedi, Vipul ; Walter, Jeff ; Paul, Arpita ; ... - Physical Review Materials

Tensile-strained LaCoO_3-δ thin films are ferromagnetic, in sharp contrast to the zero-spin bulk, although no clear consensus has emerged as to the origin of this phenomenon. While magnetism has been heavily studied, relatively little attention has been paid to electronic transport, due to the insulating nature of the strain-stabilized ferromagnetic state. Here, structure, magnetism, and transport are studied in epitaxial LaCoO_3-δ films (10–22-nm thick) on various substrates (from 1.4% compressive to 2.5% tensile strain), using synchrotron x-ray diffraction, scanning probe and transmission electron microscopy, magnetometry, polarized neutron reflectometry, resistivity, and Hall effect. High quality, smooth films are obtained, exhibiting superstructuresmore »« less

Developing approaches to effectively induce and control the magnetic states is critical to the use of magnetic nanostructures in quantum information devices but is still challenging. Here we have demonstrated, by employing the density functional theory calculations, an existence of infinite magnetic sheets with structural integrity and magnetic homogeneity. Examination from a series of transition metal dichalcogenides shows that the biaxial tensile strained NbS2 and NbSe2 structures can be magnetized with a ferromagnetic character due to the competitive effects of through-bond interaction and through-space interaction. The estimated Curie temperatures (387 and 542 K under the 10% strain for NbS2 andmore »« less

Interface Engineered Room‐Temperature Ferromagnetic Insulating State in Ultrathin Manganite Films

Journal Article Li, Weiwei ; Zhu, Bonan ; He, Qian ; ... - Advanced Science

Ultrathin epitaxial films of ferromagnetic insulators (FMIs) with Curie temperatures near room temperature are critically needed for use in dissipationless quantum computation and spintronic devices. However, such materials are extremely rare. Here, a room-temperature FMI is achieved in ultrathin La_0.9Ba_0.1MnO₃ films grown on SrTiO₃ substrates via an interface proximity effect. Detailed scanning transmission electron microscopy images clearly demonstrate that MnO₆ octahedral rotations in La_0.9Ba_0.1MnO₃ close to the interface are strongly suppressed. As determined from in situ X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, O K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and density functional theory, the realization of the FMI state arises from a reduction of Mnmore »« less

A high-temperature ferromagnetic topological insulating phase by proximity coupling

Journal Article Katmis, Ferhat ; Lauter, Valeria ; Nogueira, Flavio S. ; ... - Nature (London)

Topological insulators are insulating materials that display conducting surface states protected by time-reversal symmetry^1,2, wherein electron spins are locked to their momentum. This unique property opens up new opportunities for creating next-generation electronic, spintronic and quantum computation devices^3,4,5. Introducing ferromagnetic order into a topological insulator system without compromising its distinctive quantum coherent features could lead to the realization of several predicted physical phenomena^6,7. In particular, achieving robust long-range magnetic order at the surface of the topological insulator at specific locations without introducing spin-scattering centres could open up new possibilities for devices. Here we use spin-polarized neutron reflectivity experiments to demonstratemore »« less

Magnetic order and interfacial coupling in oxide thin films and heterostructures probed with soft x-ray dichroism

Conference Arenholz, Elke ; van der Laan, G

The combination of novel magnetic properties induced by reduced dimensionality and strong magnetic interactions across interfaces leads to intriguing new properties in magnetic hetero- and nanostructures not observed in the constituent materials in bulk form. It is the careful optimization of the characteristics of the individual layers as well as the magnetic coupling across the interface that allows us to control the magnetic properties and tailor them for devices, e.g., in information storage and processing technology. Soft x-ray magnetic spectroscopies can make unique contributions to improving our understanding of complex magnetic nanostructures since these techniques provide elemental, valence- and site-symmetrymore »« less
