Aiming at increasing the ferroelectric polarization in AFM-E ortho-\hmo, we investigate the in-plane strain effects on both the magnetic configuration and the polarization by means of density functional theory calculations and model…
Magneto-active elastomers (MAEs) are polymer composites consisting of magnetic microparticles embedded in an elastomeric matrix. These materials exhibit strong magneto-mechanical coupling under external magnetic fields, resulting in tunable…
Changes in strain can be used to modify electronic and magnetic properties in crystal structures, to manipulate nanoparticles and cells, or to control chemical reactions. The magneto-elastic (ME) effect--the change of magnetic properties…
We studied the depth dependent magnetization profile of the magnetostrictive Co thin film layer in a PMN-PT (011)/Ta/Co/Ta structure under both zero and nonzero applied electric field using polarized neutron reflectometry. Application of…
Similar to electromagnetism, described by the Maxwell equations, the physics of magnetoelectric (ME) phenomena deals with the fundamental problem of the relationship between electric and magnetic fields. Despite a formal resemblance between…
Composite multiferroics, heterostructures of ferromagnetic (FM) and ferroelectric (FE) materials, are characterized by a remarkable magnetoelectric effect at the interface. Previous work has supported the ferromagnetic structure with…
Electric field effect devices based on mesoscopic graphite are fabricated for galvanomagnetic measurements. Strong modulation of magneto-resistance and Hall resistance as a function of gate voltage is observed as sample thickness approaches…

We have measured resonant soft x-ray diffuse magnetic scattering as a function of temperature in a positively exchange biased Co/FeF2 bilayer and analyzed the data in the distorted wave Born approximation to obtain in-plane charge and…
Magnetic properties of a magnetoactive elastomer (MAE) filled with {\mu}m-sized soft-magnetic iron particles have been experimentally studied in the temperature range between 150 K and 310 K. By changing the temperature, the elastic modulus…
We propose that the topological magneto-electric (ME) effect, a hallmark of topological insulators (TIs), can be realized in thin films of TIs in the $\nu=0$ quantum Hall state under magnetic field or by doping two magnetic ions with…

We report measurements of the in-plane and interlayer magnetoresistances of FeSe. The in-plane magnetoresistance $\Delta \rho_{ab}/\rho_{ab}(0)$ for $B \parallel c$ is positive below $T_s$ and increases with decreasing temperature,…
Two-dimensional (2D) layered magnets, such as iron chalcogenides, have emerged these years as a new family of unconventional superconductor and provided the key insights to understand the phonon-electron interaction and pairing mechanism.…
