Synthetic ferrimagnets are an attractive materials class for spintronics as they provide access to all-optical switching of magnetization and, at the same time, allow for ultrafast domain wall motion at angular momentum compensation. In…
In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, 117201 (2003)], it is argued that an itinerant antiferromagnet in an external magnetic field undergoes a spin-flip transition, in marked contrast with the behavior of a localized antiferromagnet: for…
