High-entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit various physical properties, such as high microhardness for structured materials and high efficiency for catalysis. These features are recognized as a cocktail effect of five or more elements that…
The high-entropy alloys Al$_{x}$CrFeCoNi exist over a broad range of Al concentrations ($0 < x < 2$). With increasing Al content their structure is changed from the fcc to bcc phase. We investigate the effect of such structural changes on…
We investigate the spin Hall conductivity (SHC) of a composition series of a Ta-Re bcc solid solution. At approximately 60 at.% Ta the Ta-Re alloy features an SHC similar to bcc-W, while both endpoints of the compositional series have…

Spin chirality in metallic materials with non-coplanar magnetic order can give rise to a Berry phase induced topological Hall effect. Here, we report the observation of a large topological Hall effect in high-quality films of Mn$_{1.5}$PtSn…
As spintronic devices become more and more prevalent, the desire to find Pt free materials with large spin Hall effects is increasing. Previously it was shown that Beta W, the metastable A15 structured variant of pure W, has charge-spin…
