Abstract

The classical Heisenberg Hamiltonian was solved for oriented spinel thin and thick cubic ferrites. The dipole matrix of complicated cubic cell could be simplified into the form of dipole Matrix of simple cubic cells. This study was confined only to the highly oriented thin films of ferrite. The variation of total energy of Nickel ferrite thin films with angle and number of layers was investigated. Also the change of energy with stress induced anisotropy for Nickel ferrite films with N=5 and 1000 has been studied. Films with the magnetic moments ratio 1.86 can be easily oriented in 90 direction when N is greater than 400.

Fingerprints of an Imbert-Fedorov-like effect in the tunneling transmission of Rarita-Schwinger semi-metals

We study tunneling through a square barrier in a rotationally symmetric Rarita-Schwinger semi-metal and identify fingerprints of an Imbert-Fedorov-like effect in the tunneling transmission. The problem is intrinsically multichannel at all energies because there exist two propagating sectors with spin projections $m=1/2$ and $m=3/2$. We derive the transmission amplitudes analytically and compare the single-channel and coherent mixed-incidence cases in the two channels. Interestingly, we observe that tunneling at high energy shows a bias towards scattering into spin projection $3/2$ contributions. For single-channel injection, we find that the transmission remains symmetric under a mirror transformation of the incident angle. In contrast, for the coherent superposition, we find a directional asymmetry in the transmission probability $T(k_y)\neq T(-k_y)$. Importantly, this effect does not originate from an anisotropy of the dispersion. Instead, it arises from the phase structure of the multicomponent scattering states. The two spin projection sectors exhibit different scattering and barrier-propagation phases, which enter as interference terms when both channels appear as a coherent superposition. This interference term is identified as the cause of the broken mirror symmetry. We therefore discover an analog of the Imbert-Fedorov effect, at the level of interface-induced phase differences between internal wave components. Our result demonstrates that asymmetric tunneling can already occur in transport experiments, even in an idealized, isotropic multiband system, and should therefore not be automatically attributed solely to explicit band anisotropy.

Room-Temperature Nonlinear Hall Effect in Polycrystalline Magnetic Multilayers

We report a zero-field nonlinear Hall effect in sputtered polycrystalline Ta/Pt/[Pt/Co/Fe/Ir]$_5$/Pt multilayers from 2 to 300 K. Angle-resolved transport reveals macroscopic in-plane anisotropy and a second-order response. The transverse voltage scales quadratically with current and remains unchanged across magnetization reversal. Conductivity scaling reveals strong scattering contributions, and first-principles calculations yield a symmetry-allowed Berry curvature dipole. Our findings support a mixed intrinsic-extrinsic response and establish a scalable platform for nonlinear electronics

Phonons under confinement: Coarse-grained $U(1)$ charge and a new transport mechanism

An important feature of solid-state or cold atom systems in low dimensions is the restricted oscillations of ionic/atomic degrees of freedom in the confining directions, for which the conventional phonon from canonical quantization is not an ideal description. In this work we propose a general recipe to introduce this feature to otherwise unrestricted systems by mapping displacement fields to spin degrees of freedom, dubbed soft-corization. In the strong-confinement limit $S=1/2$, we demonstrate the validity of the approach with a harmonic chain; the results lead to a gapped fermionic model showing the absence of acoustic modes as a signature of the confinement of the entire chain. Despite the non-conserved total particle number in the presence of nearest-neighbor parings, the model holds a coarse-grained $U(1)$ symmetry with conserved polarization charge in the absence of nearest-neighbor hopping. This enables a new transport mechanism via "dimer-tumbling" instead of single-particle hopping. We then introduce a short-range interaction via anharmonicity; for energy scales slightly above the gap, it leads to a (quantum) phase transition to a nonreciprocal state carrying polarization charge current and heat current with spontaneous time reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) of the type $\hat{T}^2=+1$. The non-reciprocity can be probed by measuring the change of inductance due to gauge fields in and out of the ordered phase.
