We present combined spin model and first principles electronic structure calculations to study the weak ferromagnetism in bulk Mn$_3$Z (Z=Sn, Ge, Ga) compounds. The spin model parameters were determined from a spin-cluster expansion…
The Kitaev material $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ is among the most prominent candidates to host a quantum spin-liquid state endowed with fractionalized excitations. Recent experimental and theoretical investigations have separately revealed the…
I present a Ginzburg-Landau theory for hexagonal oscillations of the upper critical field of UPt$_3$ near $T_c$. The model is based on a $2D$ representation for the superconducting order parameter, $\vec{\eta}=(\eta_1,\eta_2)$, coupled to…
Low-energy magnetic excitations in the spin-1/2 chain compound (C$_6$H$_9$N$_2$)CuCl$_3$ [known as (6MAP)CuCl$_3$] are probed by means of tunable-frequency electron spin resonance. Two modes with asymmetric (with respect to the $h\nu=g\mu_B…
Transition metal thriclorides, with $4d$ or $5d$ electrons, are materials at the forefront of recent studies about the interplay of spin-orbit coupling and strong Coulomb interactions. Within our first-principles calculations (DFT+$U$+SOC)…
The interplay between unconventional superconductivity and altermagnetic order has attracted much attentions. In particular, whether spin-triplet superconductivity can be achieved by suppressing altermagnetism remains an open issue. We…
The majority of research on $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ has focused on applying in-plane magnetic fields to suppress antiferromagnetic order and induce a quantum spin liquid (QSL). However, this effort has been complicated by the materials…
Single crystals of Cr$_2$Ge$_2$Te$_6$ were studied by high-resolution capacitance dilatometry to obtain in-plane ($B\parallel ab$) and out-of-plane ($B\parallel c$) thermal expansion and magnetostriction at temperatures between 2 and 300 K…
The effects of correlation-induced coupling between spin and charge fluctuations on spin-wave excitations in a band ferromagnet are investigated by including self-energy and vertex corrections within a systematic inverse-degeneracy…
Classical nonlinear theories are highly successful in describing far-from-equilibrium dynamics of magnets, encompassing phenomena such as parametric resonance, ultrafast switching, and even chaos. However, at ultrashort length and time…
We investigate the magnetization dynamics of $TmFeO_3$ single crystals across the spin-reorientation phase transition using broadband microwave absorption spectroscopy up to 87.5 GHz. Temperature- and magnetic-field-dependent…
In the first part we investigate in detail if the Bose-Einstein condensation scenario for magnons can quantitatively explain the observed field-induced magnetic ordering in TlCuCl$_3$. We use a bond-operator approach to map the spin system…
Strongly correlated electron systems host a variety of poorly understood correlations in their high temperature normal state. Unlike ordered phases defined by order parameters, these normal state phases are often defined through…
Changes in the spin configuration of atomically-thin, magnetic van-der-Waals multilayers can cause drastic modifications in their opto-electronic properties. Conversely, the opto-electronic response of these systems provides information…
The Mott insulator $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ has generated great interest in the community due to its possible field-induced Kitaev quantum spin liquid state. Despite enormous effort spent trying to obtain the form of the low energy Hamiltonian,…
The spectral properties of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on an anisotropic triangular lattice in a magnetic field are investigated using a weak-interchain-coupling approach combined with exact solutions of a chain. Dominant modes…
We study the effects of marginally spinful electron-electron interactions on the low-energy instabilities and favorable phase transitions in a two-dimensional (2D) spin-$1/2$ semimetal that owns a quadratic band crossing point (QBCP)…
Motivated by the recent experimental progress on the strong spin-orbit-coupled rare earth triangular antiferromagnet, we analyze the highly anisotropic spin model that describes the interaction between the spin-orbit-entangled Kramers'…
Recently, antiferromagnets have received revived interest due to their significant potential for developing next-generation ultrafast magnetic storage. Here we report dc spin pumping by the acoustic resonant mode in a canted easy-plane…
The pairing mechanism in A$_3$C$_{60}$ is investigated by studying the properties of a three-orbital Hubbard model with antiferromagnetic Hund coupling in the normal and superconducting phase. Local orbital fluctuations are shown to be…
