Gaining growing attention in spintronics is a class of magnets displaying zero net magnetization and spin-split electronic bands called altermagnets. Here, by combining density functional theory and symmetry analysis, we show that RuF$_4$…
Ferromagnetism and electrical insulation are often at odds, signifying an inherent trade off. The simultaneous optimization of both in one material, essential for advancing spintronics and topological electronics, necessitates the…
Recently, the topic of altermagnetism has attracted tremendous attention and RuO2 have been demonstrated to be one of the most promising altermagnetic candidates. However, disputes still remain on the existence of magnetic order in RuO2.…
The newly discovered altermagnets are unconventional collinear compensated magnetic systems, exhibiting even (d, g, or i-wave) spin-polarization order in the band structure, setting them apart from conventional collinear ferromagnets and…
Development of modern spintronic devices requires materials exhibiting specific magnetic effects. In this paper, we investigate a magnetization reversal mechanism in a [Co/Pdx]7/CoO/[Co/Pdy]7 thin-film composite where an antiferromagnet is…
We calculate the properties of the 4$d$ ferromagnet SrRuO$_3$ in bulk and thin film form with the aim of understanding the experimentally observed metal to insulator transition at reduced thickness. Although the spatial extent of the 4$d$…
We report a theoretical study of the effects of electron correlations and structural confinement on the electronic properties and magnetic state of LaNiO3 (LNO) thin films epitaxially deposited on the (001) LaAlO3 (LAO) substrate. Using the…
The binary ruthenate, RuO$_2$, has been the subject of intense interest due to its itinerant antiferromagnetism and strain-induced superconductivity. The strain mechanism and its effect on the microscopic electronic states leading to the…
Presence of magnetism in potentially altermagnetic RuO$_2$ has been a subject of intense debate. Using broadband infrared spectroscopy combined with density-functional band-structure calculations, we show that optical conductivity of…
As a prototypical altermagnet, RuO$_{2}$ has been subject to many controversial reports regarding its magnetic ground state and the existence of crystal Hall effects. We obtained high-quality RuO$_{2}$ single crystal with a residual…
Spin-band splitting is a hallmark of altermagnetism, intrinsically linked to magnetic ordering driven by electron correlations. However, recent inconsistencies in the detection of altermagnetism in strongly correlated altermagnet candidates…
The terminology "altermagnetism" has recently been adopted to describe collinear magnetic order with no net magnetization and non-relativisitic, momentum-dependent spin-splitting. The archetypal material used to theoretically explore…
Altermagnets with pronounced spin-splitting band structure, unconventional magnetic and crystal symmetries, and exotic magneto-transport properties have received immense interest in cutting-edge spintronics, materials science, and condensed…
Single phase and strained LuMnO3 thin films are discovered to display co-existing ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic orders. A large moment ferromagnetism (approx. 1 muB), which is absent in bulk samples, is shown to display a magnetic…
Bulk rutile RuO$_2$ has long been considered a Pauli paramagnet. Here we report that RuO$_2$ exhibits a hitherto undetected lattice distortion below approximately 900 K. The distortion is accompanied by antiferromagnetic order up to at…
Altermagnetism defies conventional classifications of collinear magnetic phases, standing apart from ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism with its unique combination of spin-dependent symmetries, net-zero magnetization, and anomalous Hall…
It has been reported theoretically that the intercalation of nitrogen in the voids of the rather open cubic structure of bulk Cu3N build up a magnetic structure. In an extended effort to study this system, we have investigated spin…
Antiferromagnets have recently emerged as attractive platforms for spintronics applications, offering fundamentally new functionalities compared to their ferromagnetic counterparts. While nanoscale thin film materials are key to the…
Altermagnets represent a new class of magnetic phases without net magnetization that are invariant under a combination of rotation and time reversal. Unlike conventional collinear antiferromagnets (AFM), altermagnets could lead to new…
Amorphous sputtered Co-based thin films are widely used as soft magnetic materials in applications such as sensors, inductors and magnetic flux concentrators. The magnetic properties of these films can be controlled by deposition parameters…
