Thermally induced antiphase boundaries (APBs) in ferromagnetic, ordered Ni-Mn-Ga single crystal exhibit complex, irregular shapes and closed loops without any lattice plane preferences. The APBs were visualized on polished (100) surface…
Anti-phase boundaries (APBs) are structural defects which have been shown to be responsible for the anomalous magnetic behaviour observed in different nanostructures. Understanding their properties is crucial in order to use them to tune…
The magnetic coupling between iron and alpha - MnAs in the epitaxial system Fe/MnAs/GaAs(001) has been studied at the sub-micron scale, using element selective x-ray photoemission electron microscopy. At room temperature, MnAs layers…
Superconductivity arises in the layered iron-pnictide compounds when magnetic long range order disappears. We use first principles density functional methods to study magnetic arrangements that may compete with long range order near the…
We report on the phase diagram of antiferromagnetism (AFM) and superconductivity (SC) in three-layered Ba_2Ca_2Cu_3O_6(F,O)_2 by means of Cu-NMR measurements. It is demonstrated that AFM and SC uniformly coexist in three-layered compounds…
Magnetic nano-objects possess great potential for more efficient data processing, storage and neuromorphic type of applications. Using high perpendicular magnetic anisotropy synthetic antiferromagnets in the form of multilayer-based…
Understanding the crystal structure of magnetic shape memory alloys is crucial for insights into their unique properties, such as the high mobility of twin boundaries and magnetic field functionality. The complex neutron diffraction…
We investigate antiferromagnetic spin chains, which are coupled by a weak antiferromagnetic exchange interaction on a hexagonal lattice. We particulary study the role of the dipole-dipole interaction within the framework of a Heisenberg…
Magnetism in Ni-Mn-Z (Z = Ga,In,Sn,Sb) Heusler alloys has so far been predominantly attributed to Rudermann-Kittel-Kasuya-Yoshida type interactions between Mn atoms. We investigate magnetic interactions in one such alloy,…
We quantify and explain the effects of both anti-phase boundaries and twin defects in as-transformed $\tau$-MnAl by carrying out micromagnetic simulations based closely on the results of microstructural characterization. We demonstrate that…
The switching characteristics of ferroelectrics and multiferroics are influenced by the interaction of topological defects with domain-walls. We report on the pinning of polarization due to antiphase boundaries in thin films of the…
Defects in organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) greatly influence their optoelectronic properties. Identification and better understanding of defects existing in OIHPs is an essential step towards fabricating high-performance…
The random substitutional solid solution between the antiferromagnetic (AFM) full-Heusler alloy Ru$_2$MnSn and the ferromagnetic (FM) full-Heusler alloy Ru$_2$FeSn provides a rare opportunity to study FM-AFM phase competition in a…
Natural superlattice structures $\rm{(MnBi_2Te_4)(Bi_2Te_3)}$$_n$ ($n$ = 1, 2,...), in which magnetic $\rm{MnBi_2Te_4}$ layers are separated by nonmagnetic $\rm{Bi_2Te_3}$ layers, hold band topology, magnetism and reduced interlayer…
In antiferromagnetically coupled multilayers with perpendicular anisotropy unusual multidomain textures can be stabilized due to a close competition between long-range demagnetization fields and short-range interlayer exchange coupling. In…
It was shown that anomalous resistivity behavior of the $Cu-Mn-Al$ ribbons is explained by the s-d interaction between conduction electrons and the clustered Mn atoms. While nuclear magnetic resonance measurements show the antiferromagnetic…
We report on experimental studies of the character of phase transitions in the quasi-1D organic compound (TMTSF)2PF6 in the close vicinity of the borders between the paramagnetic metal PM, antiferromagnetic insulator AF, and superconducting…
Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) allows one to image the domain structure of ferromagnetic samples by probing the dipole forces between a magnetic probe tip and a magnetic sample. The magnetic domain structure of the sample depends on the…
We report coherent X-ray imaging of antiferromagnetic (AFM) domains and domain walls in MnBi$_2$Te$_4$, an intrinsic AFM topological insulator. This technique enables direct visualization of domain morphology without reconstruction…
