The promise of a strong magnetoelectric coupling in a multiferroic material is not only of fundamental interest, but also forms the basis of next generation memory devices where the direction of magnetization can be reversed by an external…
We investigate magnetization as functions of external magnetic field $H$ in the $U$-infinite Anderson lattice model within the leading order approximation in the $1/N$-expansion. At $T=0$, at $H=H_M$ where the Zeeman energy is equal to a…
Finite-temperature diamagnetic properties of doped antiferromagnets as modeled by the two-dimensional t-J model were investigated by numerical studies of small model systems. Two numerical methods were used: the worldline quantum Monte…
Insulating helimagnetic Cu2OSeO3 shows sizeable magnetoelectric effects in its skyrmion phase. Using magnetization measurements, magneto-current analysis and dielectric spectroscopy, we provide a thorough investigation of magnetoelectric…
We report detailed studies on non-equilibrium magnetic behavior of antiferromagnetic Co_3O_4 nanoparticles. Temperature and field dependence of magnetization, wait time dependence of magnetic relaxation (aging), memory effects and…
We investigate the electronic structure and the ferroelectric properties of the recently discovered multiferroic ScFeO$_3$ by means of ab-initio calculations. The $3d$ manifold of Fe in the half-filled configuration naturally favors an…
A general formula for the average vector potential of bulk periodic systems is proposed and shown to set the boundary conditions at magnetic interfaces. For antiferromagnetic materials, the study reveals a unique relation between the…
The ultrafast manipulation of magnetic order due to optical excitation is governed by the intricate flow of energy and momentum between the electron, lattice and spin subsystems. While various models are commonly employed to describe these…
Polarized Neutron Reflectometry and magnetometry measurements have been used to obtain a comprehensive picture of the magnetic structure of a series of La{2/3}Sr{1/3}MnO{3}/Pr{2/3}Ca{1/3}MnO{3} (LSMO/PCMO) superlattices, with varying…
Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ is a weak ferromagnet where the spin arrangement is canted anti-ferromagnetic (AF). Moreover, the spin-structure coupling plays and important role in magnetic behavior of Sr$_2$IrO$_4$. In this concern the magnetization under…
Antiferromagnetic (AF) materials are attracting increasing interest of research in magnetic physics and spintronics. Here, we report controllable synthesis of room-temperature AF $\alpha$-MnTe nanocrystals (N\'eel temperature ~ 307 K) via…
We describe the design of a new magnetic ferroelectric with large spontaneous magnetization and polarization using first-principles density functional theory. The usual difficulties associated with the production of robustly-insulating…
The magnetic arrangement in the vicinity of the interface between a ferromagnet and an antiferromagnet is investigated, in particular its dependence on the exchange couplings and the temperature. Applying a Heisenberg model, both sc(001)…
The thermal properties of antiferromagnetic films -- in particular, the square-lattice antiferromagnet -- subjected to an external magnetic field pointing into the direction of the staggered magnetization are explored. The effective field…
We study the $S=1/2$ pyrochlore Heisenberg antiferromagnet in a magnetic field. Using large scale density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations for clusters up to $128$ spins, we find indications for a finite triplet gap, causing…
LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 are insulating, nonmagnetic oxides, yet the interface between them exhibits a two-dimensional electron system with high electron mobility,1 superconductivity at low temperatures,2-6 and electric-field-tuned metal-insulator…
Given the paucity of single phase multiferroic materials (with large ferromagnetic moment), composite systems seem an attractive solution in the quest to realize magnetoelectric cou-pling between ferromagnetic and ferroelectric order…
We have investigated the magnetic properties of non-doped ZnO nanostructures by using {\it ab initio} total energy calculations. Contrary to many proposals that ferromagnetism in non-doped semiconductors should be induced by intrinsic point…
Magnetism of the $S$ = 1 Heisenberg antiferromagnets on the spatially anisotropic square lattice has been scarcely explored. Here we report a study of the magnetism, specific heat, and thermal conductivity on Ni[SC(NH$_2$)$_2$]$_6$Br$_2$…
Using a combination of single-crystal neutron scattering and reverse Monte Carlo refinements, we study the magnetic structure of paramagnetic MnO at a temperature (160\,K) substantially below the Curie-Weiss temperature…
