We present a theory for the Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction mediated by a two-dimensional (2D) electron system subjected to periodic driving. This is demonstrated for a heterostructure consisting of two ferromagnets…
As per de Gennes predictions, a superconducting layer placed between two ferromagnetic insulators can drive an antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between them. Using two ferromagneticinsulating GdN layers having dissimilar switching fields…
We make the first study the optical energy level structure and interactions of pairs of single rare earth ions using a hybrid electro-optical detection method applied to Er-implanted silicon. Two examples of Er3+ pairs were identified in…
Intercalation of rare earth metals ($RE$ = Eu, Dy, and Gd) is achieved by depositing the $RE$ metal on graphene that is grown on silicon-carbide (SiC) and by subsequent annealing at high temperatures to promote intercalation. STM images of…
Ultrathin metallic ferromagnets on substrates with strong spin-orbit coupling can exhibit induced chiral interactions of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) form. For systems with perpendicular anisotropy, the presence of DM interactions has…

Magnetic adatoms on surfaces are exchange coupled to their environment, inducing fast relaxation of excited spin states and decoherence. These interactions can be suppressed by inserting decoupling layers between the magnetic adsorbate and…
