Iridates abound with interesting magnetic behaviours because of their strong spin-orbit coupling. Sr$_3$NiIrO$_6$ brings together the spin-orbital entanglement of the Ir$^{4+}$ ion with a 3$d$ Ni cation and a one-dimensional crystal…
The development of magnetoelectric materials requires chemical design strategies that integrate structural polarity with magnetic lattices capable of supporting competing spin interactions. Here, we demonstrate such an approach in the…
First principles calculations based on the density functional theory within the local spin density approximation plus U(LSDA+U)scheme, show rhombohedral Bi$_2$FeTiO$_6$ is a potential multiferroic in which the magnetism and ferroelectricity…
Magnetic chiral skyrmions are vortex like spin structures that appear as stable or meta-stable states in magnetic materials due to the interplay between the symmetric and antisymmetric exchange interactions, applied magnetic field and/or…
We explore the intriguing topological itinerant magnet MgMn$_6$Sn$_6$, characterized by bilayer kagome Mn layers encasing a hexagonal Sn layer. Using \textit{ab initio} Density functional theory and Dynamical mean-field theory calculations,…
The magnetic structure of the intermetallic antiferromagnet Sm2IrIn8 was determined using x-ray resonant magnetic scattering (XRMS). Below TN = 14.2, Sm2IrIn8 has a commensurate antiferromagnetic structure with a propagation vector…
Materials composed of two dimensional layers bonded to one another through weak van der Waals interactions often exhibit strongly anisotropic behaviors and can be cleaved into very thin specimens and sometimes into monolayer crystals.…
Recent developments have led to an explosion of activity on skyrmions in three-dimensional (3D) chiral magnets. Experiments have directly probed these topological spin textures, revealed their nontrivial properties, and led to suggestions…
We have investigated the magnetic properties of a non-symmorphic correlated material, TbAgSb2. It consists of a quasi-two-dimensional structure of Sb atoms which hosts topologically non-trivial fermions. We prepared high quality single…
The magnetic correlations in double perovskites La2Mn2-xNixO6 (x = 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.5) have been systematically investigated across macroscopic, mesoscopic, and microscopic length scales using temperature-dependent bulk DC…
Materials exhibiting electronic inhomogeneities at the nanometer scale have enormous potential for applications. Magnetic polarons are one such type of inhomogeneity which link the electronic, magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom in…
We have conducted a comprehensive investigation into the magnetic properties of the chiral multiferroic material CoTeMoO$_6$. In contrast with the previous claim of canted antiferromagnetic order with ferromagnetic components, our…
The complex metal oxides Ni2InSbO6 (NISO) and Ni2ScSbO6 (NSSO) have been prepared in form of polycrystalline powders by a solid state reaction route. The crystal structure and magnetic properties of the compounds were investigated using a…
Structural, magnetic and multiferroic properties of single crystals of Dy$_{1-x}$Ho$_x$MnO$_3$ ($x = 0, 0.2$) were investigated by the different methods of polarized and classical neutron diffraction and macroscopic methods in order to…
CsO2 is a member of the family of alkali superoxides (formula AO2 with A= Na, K, Rb and Cs) that exhibit magnetic behavior arising from open $p$-shell electrons residing on O2- molecules. We use neutron diffraction to solve the crystal and…
Mn$_3$Si$_2$Te$_6$ is a rare example of a layered ferrimagnet. It has recently been shown to host a colossal angular magnetoresistance as the spin orientation is rotated from the in- to out-of-plane direction, proposed to be underpinned by…
The extremely large transverse magnetoreistance (the magnetoresistant ratio $\sim 1.3\times10^5\%$ in 2 K and 9 T field, and $4.3\times 10^6\%$ in 0.4 K and 32 T field, without saturation), and the metal-semiconductor crossover induced by…
The formation and characteristics of magnetic skyrmions are strongly governed by the symmetry of the underlying crystal structure. In this study, we report the discovery of a new trigonal polymorph of Cu2OSeO3, observed exclusively in…
By a combined angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory study, we discover that the surface metallicity is polarity-driven in SmB$_6$. Two surface states, not accounted for by the bulk band structure, are…
The exchange interactions and magnetic structure in layered system CuMnO2 (mineral crednerite) and in nonstoichiometric system Cu1.04Mn0.96O2, with triangular layers distorted due to orbital ordering of the Mn3+ ions, are studied by…
