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…
Antiferromagnetic (AFM) semiconductor MnS$_2$ possesses both high-spin and low-spin magnetic phases that can be reversibly switched by applying pressure. With increasing pressure, the high-spin state undergoes pressure-induced metalization…
Resonant x-ray scattering at the Dy $M_5$ and Ni $L_3$ absorption edges was used to probe the temperature and magnetic field dependence of magnetic order in epitaxial LaNiO$_3$-DyScO$_3$ superlattices. For superlattices with 2 unit cell…
Combining first-principles calculations and tight-binding Hamiltonians, we study the stack-dependent behaviour of electronic and topological properties of layered antiferromagnet MnBi$_2$Te$_4$. Lateral shift of top septuple-layer greatly…
Ferrimagnets have received renewed attention as a promising platform for spintronic applications. Of particular interest is the Mn4N from the ${\epsilon}$-phase of the manganese nitride as an emergent rare-earth-free spintronic material due…

Nanopatterned magnetic thin films offer a platform for exploration of tailored magnetic properties such as emergent long-range order. A prominent example is artificial spin ice (ASI), where an arrangement of nanoscale magnetic elements,…
Phase diagrams as a function of anisotropy $D$ and magnetic field $H$ are obtained for discommensurations and surface states for an antiferromagnet in which $H$ is parallel to the easy axis, by modeling it using the ground states of a…
The interface of two materials can harbor unexpected emergent phenomena. One example is interface-induced superconductivity. In this work, we employ molecular beam epitaxy to grow a series of heterostructures formed by stacking together two…
We observe strongly nonlinear spin dynamics in ferro-/antiferro-magnetic multilayers, controlled by the number of bilayers in the system, layer thicknesses, as well as temperature, peaking in magnitude near the N\'eel point of the…
MnBi$_4$Te$_{7}$ and MnBi$_6$Te$_{10}$ are two members with n=2 and 3 in the family of MnBi$_{2n}$Te$_{3n+1}$ where the n=1 member, MnBi$_2$Te$_{4}$, has been intensively investigated as the first intrinsic antiferromagnetic topological…
