Hard/soft magnetic bilayer thin films have been widely used in data storage technologies and permanent magnet applications. The magnetic configuration and response to temperatures and magnetic fields in these heterostructures are considered…
The dielectric properties of NiO thin films grown by pulsed laser deposition have been studied as a function of strain at temperature from 10 to 300 K. Above 150 K, the contribution of space-charge polarization to the dielectric…
We have grown epitaxial thin-films of the orthorhombic phase of YMnO3 oxide on Nb:SrTiO3(001) substrates and their structure, magnetic and dielectric response have been measured. We have found that a substrate-induced strain produces an…
Recently, the observation of atomic thin film SnTe with a Curie temperature (Tc) higher than that of the bulk (Chang et. al., Science 353, 274 (2016)) has boosted the research on two-dimensional (2D) ferroic materials tremendously. However,…
We have investigated a method for substituting oxygen with nitrogen in EuO thin films, which is based on molecular beam epitaxy distillation with NO gas as the oxidizer. By varying the NO gas pressure, we produce crystalline, epitaxial…
Magnetic properties of thin films differs from that of the corresponding bulk materials and show novel physics as a result of their reduced size and dimensionality. Profound changes in magnetic properties can also result with exchange bias…
Muon spin rotation/relaxation measurements were performed to investigate magnetic properties of FeSe$_{1-x}$S$_x$ thin films on LaAlO$_3$. A drastic decrease of the initial asymmetry was observed together with the peak structure in the…
We present an extensive study on the effect of substrate orientation, strain, stoichiometry and defects on spin ice physics in Ho$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ thin films grown onto yttria-stabilized-zirconia substrates. We find that growth in different…
The magnetic, transport and optical properties of EuFe$_2$As$_2$ single crystals have been investigated parallel and perpendicular to the $ab$-plane. The anisotropy $\rho_c/\rho_{ab}\approx 8$ depends only slightly on temperature. In both…
We measured the magnetoresistance as a function of temperature down to 20mK and magnetic field for a set of underdoped PrCeCuO (x=0.12) thin films with controlled oxygen content. This allows us to access the edge of the superconducting dome…
The magnetic properties and magnetization dynamics of polycrystalline ultra-thin Co layers were investigated using a broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) technique at room temperature. A variable thickness (1 nm $\leq t \leq$ 10 nm) Co…
Earlier a magnetic anisotropy for magnetic impurities nearby the surface of non-magnetic host was proposed in order to explain the size dependence of the Kondo effect in dilute magnetic alloys. Recently Giordano has measured the…
We present a detailed low-energy muon spin rotation and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) investigation of the magnetic structure in ultra-thin tetragonal (T)-CuO films. The measured muon-spin polarization decay indicates an…
We present a first-principles study of electronic and magnetic properties of thin Co films on a BaTiO$_3$(001) single crystal. The crystalline structure of 1, 2, and 3 monolayer thick Co films was determined and served as input for…
NiFe$_2$O$_4$ thin films with varying thickness were grown on SrTiO$_3$(001) by reactive molecular beam epitaxy. Soft and hard x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements reveal a homogeneous cation distribution throughout the whole film…
Electron transport is studied in surface oxidized single-crystal copper thin films with a thickness of up to 5.6 nm by applying density functional theory and density functional tight binding methods to determine electron transport…
We report on a monotonic reduction of Curie temperature in dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As upon a well controlled chemical-etching/oxidizing thinning from 15 nm down to complete removal of the ferro- magnetic response. The…
In ferromagnetic thin films, the Curie temperature variation with the thickness is always considered as continuous when the thickness is varied from $n$ to $n+1$ atomic planes. We show that it is not the case for Fe in Fe/Ir superlattices.…
The magnetic and superconducting properties of RuSr2Gd1.5Ce0.5Cu2O10-x polycrystalline samples with different oxygen doping level are presented. A strong suppression of the superconducting temperature (Tc), as well as a reduction in the…
The double perovskite La2NiMnO6 (LNMO) exhibits complex magnetism due to the competition of magnetic interactions that are strongly affected by structural and magnetic inhomogeneities. In this work, we study the effect of oxygen annealing…
