CrI$_3$ represents one of the most important van der Waals systems on the route to understanding two-dimensional magnetic phenomena. Being arranged in a specific layered structure it also provides a unique opportunity to investigate…
Translational/rotational symmetry breaking and recovery in condensed matter systems are closely related to exotic physical properties such as superconductivity (SC), magnetism, spin density waves (SDW) and charge density waves (CDW). The…
We explored changes in magnetic domain structures in a magnetic layer due to the onset of the superconductivity of an adjacent superconductive layer using neutron reflectometry. Magnetic domain structures in 1~$\mu$m thick permalloy (Py)…
Two-dimensional spin-uncompensated momentum density distributions, $\rho_{\rm s}^{2D}({\bf p})$s, were reconstructed in magnetite at 12K and 300K from several measured directional magnetic Compton profiles. Mechanical de-twinning was used…
Bragg coherent X-ray diffraction imaging (BCDI) allows the three-dimensional (3D) measurement of lattice strain along the scattering vector for specific microcrystals. If at least three linearly independent reflections are measured, the 3D…
Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI) is a unique and powerful method for tracking three-dimensional strain fields non-destructively. While BCDI has been successfully applied to many scientific research fields and receives high demands,…
Multiple structure and symmetry types and their transformations are discovered in quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) Cr2Ge2Te6 crystal in surprisingly very narrow temperature range of 2 K and magnetic field range of 0.07 T using a homebuilt…
The magnetic flux structure in the basal plane, (001), of single crystals of superconducting (R = Er) and non-superconducting (R = Tb) RNi$_2$B$_2$C was studied by high resolution Bitter decoration at temperatures below $T_c$…
We report the synthesis of CeBi single crystals out of Bi self flux and a systematic study of the magnetic and transport properties with varying temperature and applied magnetic fields. From these $R(T,H)$ and $M(T,H)$ data we could…
The magneto-optical technique has been employed to observe spontaneous ferromagnetic domain structures in La0.78Ca0.22MnO3 single crystals. The magnetic domain topology was found to be correlated with the intrinsic twin structure of the…
At low temperatures, in strong magnetic fields, the formation of a non-uniform magnetisation is possible in a single-crystal metal sample whose demagnetising factor along the field is close to unity. Namely, so-called Condon diamagnetic…
Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI), the well-established technique for imaging internal strain of nanoparticles, was used to image the internal compositional distribution of binary alloys in thermal equilibrium. The images…
We report on the thermodynamic, magnetic properties and the magnetic structure of ludwigite-type Cu2MnBO5. The specific heat, the low-field magnetization and the paramagnetic susceptibility were studied on a single crystal and combined with…
We report the experimental observation of micron-scale magnetic skyrmions at room temperature in several Pt/Co-based thin film heterostructures designed to possess a low exchange stiffness, perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, and a modest…
By using phase retrieval, Bragg Coherent Diffractive Imaging (BCDI) allows tracking of three-dimensional displacement fields inside individual nanocrystals. Nevertheless, in the presence of significant (1% and higher) strains, such as in…
By combining Brillouin Light Scattering and micromagnetic simulations we studied the spin-wave dynamics of a Co/Pd thin film multilayer, features a stripe domain structure at remanence. The periodic up and down domains are separated by…
Strontium titanate is a classic quantum paraelectric oxide material that has been widely studied in bulk and thin films. It exhibits a well-known cubic-to-tetragonal antiferrodistortive phase transition at 105 K, characterized by the…
A controlled point-like disorder induced by low temperature 2.5 MeV electron irradiation was used to probe the nature of the Verwey transition in magnetite, $\text{Fe}_{3}\text{O}_{4}$. Two large single crystals, one with optimal transition…
Coherent precipitation of ordered phases is responsible for providing exceptional high temperature mechanical properties in a wide range of compositionally complex alloys (CCAs). Ordered phases are also essential to enhance the magnetic or…
Spin-polarized low-energy electron microscopy was used to image a magnetite crystal with (100) surface orientation. Sets of spin-dependent images of magnetic domain patterns observed in this surface were used to map the direction of the…
