Antiferromagnets hosting structural or magnetic order that breaks time reversal symmetry are of increasing interest for 'beyond von Neumann computing' applications because the topology of their band structure allows for intrinsic physical…
We theoretically study dynamic properties of thin ferromagnetic films in contact with normal metals. Moving magnetizations cause a flow of spins into adjacent conductors, which relax by spin flip, scatter back into the ferromagnet, or are…
Whereas ferroelectricity may vanish in ultra-thin ferroelectric films, it is expected to emerge in ultra-thin anti-ferroelectric films, sparking people's interest in using antiferroelectric materials as an alternative to ferroelectric ones…
A study of the multilayer system MgO/CoFeB(1.1nm)/Ta($t$)/CoFeB(0.8nm)/MgO is presented, where the two CoFeB layers are separated by a Ta interlayer of varying thickness $t$. The magnetization properties deduced from complementary…
Antiferromagnetically coupled multilayers with perpendicular anisotropy, as [CoPt]/Ru, Co/Ir, Fe/Au, display ferromagnetic stripe phases as the ground states. It is theoretically shown that the antiferromagnetic interlayer exchange causes a…
The anomalous Nernst effect in nanostructured magnetic materials is a key phenomenon to optimally control and employ the internal energy dissipated in electronic devices, being dependent on for instance the magnetic anisotropy of the active…
Although the magnetoelectric effects - the mutual control of electric polarization by magnetic fields and magnetism by electric fields, have been intensively studied in a large number of inorganic compounds and heterostructures, they have…
Thin film effects on the Magnetocrystalline Anisotropy Energy (MAE) of MnN were studied using density functional theory (DFT). Initially, strain effects on bulk MnN were considered as a proxy for lattice-matching induced strain and a linear…
We show results from Monte Carlo simulations of a two dimensional Heisenberg model for ultrathin films with perpendicular anisotropy. A complete phase diagram is obtained as a function of anisotropy and temperature, spanning a wide range of…
Unlike proper ferroelectricity, the improper ferroelectricity in multiferroic rare-earth manganites h-ReMnO3 (Re=La-Lu,Y,Sc) thin films features a unique geometric distortion and stays immune to the depolarizing field in the ultra-thin…
We present a study of the control of electric field induced strain on the magnetic and electrical transport properties in a magneto-elastically coupled artificial multiferroic Fe3O4/BaTiO3 heterostructure. In this Fe3O4/BaTiO3…
The interaction between superconductivity and ferromagnetism in thin film superconductor/ferromagnet heterostructures is usually reflected by a change in superconductivity of the S layer set by the magnetic state of the F layers. Here we…
The origin and influence of finite size effects on the nonlinear dynamics of space charge stored by multi layer graphene on ferroelectric and the resistivity of graphene channel were analyzed using self-consistent continuum media approach.…
Strong, adjustable magnetic couplings are of great importance to all devices based on magnetic materials. Controlling the coupling between adjacent regions of a single magnetic layer, however, is challenging. In this work, we demonstrate…
The junction magnetoresistivity and domain phase transition were studied between ZnO and La0.4Gd0.1Sr0.5CoO3 thin films grown on LaAlO3 (100) substrates epitaxially by pulse laser deposit. The ferromagnetic transformation into…
Misfit strain delivered from single-crystal substrates typically modifies the ground states of transition metal oxides, generating increasing interests in designing modern transducers and sensors. Here, we demonstrate that magnetotransport…
We study the ferroelectric stability and surface structural properties of an oxygen-terminated hexagonal YMnO$_3$ ultra-thin film using density functional theory. Under an open circuit boundary condition, the ferroelectric state with the…
We use neutron diffraction, magnetometry and low temperature heat capacity to probe giant magneto-elastic coupling in CoMnSi-based antiferromagnets and to establish the origin of the entropy change that occurs at the metamagnetic transition…
The sensitivity of materials properties, particularly those of perovskite oxides, to epitaxial strain has been exploited to great advantage to create materials with new or enhanced properties. Although it has certainly been recognized that…
We showed that a wetting layer in epitaxially strained thin films which decreases with increasing lattice mismatch strain arises due to the variation of nonlinear elastic free energy with film thickness. We calculated how and at what…
