When high quality bismuth or graphite crystals are placed in a magnetic field directed along the c-axis (trigonal axis for bismuth) and the temperature is lowered, the resistance increases as it does in an insulator but then saturates. We…

The apparently inimical relationship between magnetism and superconductivity has come under increasing scrutiny in a wide range of material classes, where the free energy landscape conspires to bring them in close proximity to each other.…
Using magnetization measurements, we show that point defects in graphene - fluorine adatoms and irradiation defects (vacancies) - carry magnetic moments with spin 1/2. Both types of defects lead to notable paramagnetism but no magnetic…
