Through magnetic linear dichroism spectroscopy, the magnetic susceptibility anisotropy of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes has been extracted and found to be 2-4 times greater than values for semiconducting single-walled carbon…
We report measurements of the in-plane magnetoelastic coupling in ultra-thin Ta|CoFeB|MgO layers as a function of uniaxial strain, conducted using a four-point bending apparatus. For annealed samples, we observe a strong dependence on the…
We present a study of the in-plane and out-of-plane magnetoresistance (MR) in heavily-underdoped, antiferromagnetic YBa_{2}Cu_{3}O_{6+x}, which reveals a variety of striking features. The in-plane MR demonstrates a "d-wave"-like anisotropy…
Nanoscale objects often behave differently than their 'normal-sized' counterparts. Sometimes it is enough to be small in just one direction to exhibit unusual features. One example of such a phenomenon is a very specific in-plane magnetic…
This paper shows the correlation between chemical order, lattice strains and magnetic properties of Heusler Co2FeAl films epitaxially grown on MgO(001). A detailed magnetic characterization has been performed using vector field…
We combine x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD) data with first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations and a multiorbital many body…
Polarized neutron scattering experiments on the slightly overdoped superconductor Ba$_{0.5}$K$_{0.5}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ reveal broad magnetic resonance scattering peaking at approximately 15 meV. In spite of doping far beyond the suppression of…
Main-group layered binary semiconductors, in particular, the III-VI alloys in the binary Ga-Te system are attracting increasing interest for a range of practical applications. The III-VI semiconductor, monoclinic gallium monotelluride…
Magnetic anisotropy is a key parameter of magnetic materials as it decides the response in the presence of an external magnetic field. The artificial tailoring of magnetic anisotropy by manipulating surface and interface morphology is…
We examine the distribution of the magnetic anisotropy (MA) experienced by a magnetic impurity embedded in a metallic nano-grain. As an example of a generic magnetic impurity with partially filled $d$-shell, we study the case of $d^{1}$…
We demonstrate tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) junctions based on a tri layer system consisting of an epitaxial NiMnSb, aluminum oxide and CoFe tri layer. The junctions show a tunnelling magnetoresistance of Delta R/R of 8.7% at room…
We have used complementary neutron and x-ray reflectivity techniques to examine the depth profiles of a series of as-grown and annealed Ga[1-x]Mn[x]As thin films. A magnetization gradient is observed for two as-grown films and originates…
Changing the morphology of the growing surface and the nature of residual impurities in (Ge,Mn) layers - by using different substrates - dramatically changes the morphology of the ferromagnetic Mn-rich inclusions and the magnetotransport…
A theoretical model is presented which allows to reconcile findings of scanning tunnelling spectroscopy for (Ga,Mn)As [Richardella et al. Science 327, 66 (2010)] with results for tunneling across (Ga,Mn)As thin layers [Ohya et al. Nature…
Low-temperature MnBi (hexagonal NiAs phase) exhibits anomalies in the lattice constants (a, c) and bulk elastic modulus (B) below 100 K, spin reorientation and magnetic susceptibility maximum near 90 K, and, importantly for high-temperature…
Magnetocrystalline anisotropy in transition metal alloys (FePt, CoPt, FePd, MnAl, MnGa, and FeCo) was studied using first-principles calculations to elucidate its specific mechanism. The tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method in the…
The large saturation magnetization in conventional dense moment ferromagnets offers flexible means of manipulating the ordered state through demagnetizing shape anisotropy fields but these dipolar fields, in turn, limit the integrability of…
Interest in creating magnetic metamaterials has led to methods for growing superstructures of magnetic nanoparticles. Mesoscopic crystals of maghemite ($\gamma\text{-Fe}_2\text{O}_3$) nanoparticles can be arranged into highly ordered…
We utilize a focused beam of Ga+ ions to define magnetization pinning sites in a ferromagnetic epilayer of (Ga,Mn)As. The nonmagnetic defects locally increase the magneto-crystalline anisotropy energies, by which a domain wall is pinned at…
The anisotropy of magnetic emulsions induced by simultaneously acting electric and magnetic fields is theoretically and experimentally investigated. Due to the anisotropy, the electric conductivity and magnetic permeability of a magnetic…
