Antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials recently have shown interest in the research in spintronics due to its zero stray magnetic field, high anisotropy, and spin orbit coupling. In this context, the bi-metallic AFM Mn2Au has drawn attention…
We induce ultrafast magneto-photocurrents in a GaAs crystal employing interband excitation with femtosecond laser pulses at room temperature and non-invasively separate surface and bulk contributions to the overall current response. The…
N\'eel spin-orbit torque allows a charge current pulse to efficiently manipulate the N\'eel vector in antiferromagnets, which offers a unique opportunity for ultrahigh density information storage with high speed. However, the reciprocal…
Noncollinear antiferromagnets, such as Mn$_3$Sn and Mn$_3$Ir, were recently shown to be analogous to ferromagnets in that they have a large anomalous Hall effect. Here we show that these materials are similar to ferromagnets in another…
In antiferromagnetic spintronics, it is essential to separate the resistance modifications of purely magnetic origin from other effects generated by current pulses intended to switch the N\'eel vector. We investigate the magnetoresistance…

Antiferromagnets are magnetically ordered materials which exhibit no net moment and thus are insensitive to magnetic fields. Antiferromagnetic spintronics aims to take advantage of this insensitivity for enhanced stability, while at the…
In the circular photogalvanic effect, circularly polarized light can produce a direct electron photocurrent in metals and the direction of the current depends on the polarization. We suggest that an analogous nonlinear effect exists for…
Reading antiferromagnetic order remains a central obstacle for antiferromagnetic memory and logic because zero net magnetisation precludes conventional magnetic readout. Domain imaging typically relies on x-ray magnetic linear dichroism…
