Spin wave freezing in Re/Co/Pt multilayers

The phenomenon of spin wave (SW) freezing occurs in the Damon-Eshbach mode in thin film magnetic systems, when SW phase and group velocities both go to zero, and the wave ceases to oscillate and move, preserving its shape as a domain structure pattern. This effect is related to the spin reorientation transition, where the magnetization configuration changes between the homogeneous in-plane state and domain structure with the out-of-plane magnetization component state. Here, we study the SW freezing effect in [Re/Co/Pt]$_{20}$ magnetic multilayers, induced by varying the in-plane external magnetic field. The studies were performed on nanostructures with the quality factor $Q$ (ratio of uniaxial anisotropy to demagnetization energies) greater and smaller than one. Domain structures with an out-of-plane magnetization component were observed in these multilayers. The critical field, visible as the saturation field $H_s^{||}$ in the parallel static magnetization curve measured by superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), is also manifested in the field-dependent vector-network-analyzer ferromagnetic resonance (VNA-FMR) experiment, which measures the homogeneous magnetization oscillations. Brillouin Light Scattering (BLS) spectra, recorded for several values of wave vectors and several field values, probed the field-evolution of the dispersion relation. Micromagnetic simulations allow one to obtain a full dispersion, in good agreement with VNA-FMR and BLS results. Around $H_s^{||}$ the simulated dispersion relations approach the conditions for SW freezing. Below $H_s^{||}$ low and high frequency VNA-FMR modes are related to magnetization oscillations inside domain walls and within domains, respectively. The experimental results of static and dynamic behavior, together with micromagnetic simulations, create an overall consistent picture of the investigated multilayers.

Magnetic Frustration Enforced Electronic Reconstruction in Ni intercalated NbSe$_{2}$: Suppression of Electronic Orders

We investigate the single crystals of Ni$_{0.19}$NbSe$_2$, revealing that Ni intercalation profoundly alters the physical properties of NbSe$_2$. Magnetic measurements clearly show that the system is magnetically frustrated with antiferromagnetic ordering below 23.5\,K, with an irreversibility temperature near 10\,K, and a magnetic hysteresis with a small net magnetic moment. Overall, the system can be described as an inhomogeneous antiferromagnetic phase with magnetic disorder and magnetic frustration. We found two Curie-Weiss temperatures of -80\,K for the field in the {\it ab}-plane and -137\,K for the field out of plane, which are a consequence of anisotropic interactions in spin space and favor an orientation of the spin along the {\it c}-axis. Temperature-dependent resistivity shows a complete suppression of both charge density waves and superconducting order down to 300\,mK. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy at 84\,K reveals a $\overlineΓ$-centered electron pocket in Ni$_{0.19}$NbSe$_2$, which is absent in pristine NbSe$_2$. The electronic structure results show a shift of the van Hove singularity (VHS), which is the main cause of the suppression of the electronic orders. These results align with recent theoretical predictions that Ni intercalation with cationic disorder favors frustrated antiferromagnetic stripe states, shifts the VHS and reconstructs the Fermi surface in NbSe$_2$. Our findings position Ni$_{0.19}$NbSe$_2$ within a magnetically frustrated, non-superconducting regime, highlighting how partial intercalation and disorder drive complex magnetic order and the Fermi surface reconstruction in low-dimensional quantum materials.

Magnetic Properties of epitaxial $\text{Re}/\text{Co}_{1-x}\text{Au}_{x}/\text{Pt}$ heterostructures

We investigate epitaxial $\text{Co}(20 \, \text{Å})$ and $\text{Co}_{1-x}\text{Au}_{x}(20 \, \text{Å})$ alloy thin-films surrounded by asymmetric heavy metals layers of $\text{Re}(10 \, \text{Å})$ as a buffer and $\text{Pt}(30 \, \text{Å})$ as a cap to study the magnetic anisotropy, interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI) and damping. The increase of Au from 0% to 25% in the $\text{Co}_{1-x}\text{Au}_{x}$ alloy generates the spin-reorientation transition of around 13% of Au. The increase in Au concentration provides a significant decrease in saturation magnetization from 1690 kA/m to 982 kA/m measured for Co and $\text{Co}_{75}\text{Au}_{25}$, respectively. The effective anisotropy constant $\text{K}_{eff}$ is elevated up to 0.33 $\text{MJ/m}^{3}$ by changing the Au content. Further, our investigations of the magnetization dynamics have confirmed that the overall effective damping constant rises with the Au concentration which can be attributed to the spin pumping effect. The spin pumping leads to the highest value of effective spin mixing conductance $g^{(\uparrow \downarrow)} \approx 2.91 \times 10^{18} \, \text{m}^{-2}$ in the $\text{Co}_{90}\text{Au}_{10}(20 \, \text{Å})$ system, while the lowest value of $g^{(\uparrow \downarrow)} \approx 2.25 \times 10^{18} \, \text{m}^{-2}$ is found for the $\text{Co}(20 \, \text{Å})$ system. Additionally, we have investigated the iDMI strength, and the amplitude of iDMI decreases with increasing Au concentration. The highest surface iDMI constant value equal to 2.62 pJ/m is observed for Co.

Angle-dependent resonant dynamics of stripes and skyrmions in Re/Co/Pt multilayers

The dynamic behavior and stabilization of skyrmions in magnetic multilayers are critical for advancing spintronic and magnonic technologies. In our study, we investigate the static and dynamic properties of $[Re/Co(d_{Co})/Pt]_{20}$ multilayers with varying Co thicknesses $(6\text{-}24 \, \text{Å})$, showcasing a transition from out-of-plane to in-plane magnetic anisotropy. Magnetization reversal leads to a transformation from labyrinth domains to skyrmion bubbles due to the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI). Using angle-dependent imaging at remanence, we confirm that skyrmions can be stabilized without an external magnetic field at specific polar angles, with the stabilization angle increasing alongside Co thickness. Ferromagnetic resonance spectroscopy reveals four distinct resonant modes, including low-frequency $(2\text{-}18\text{GHz})$, high-frequency $(20\text{-}35 \, \text{GHz})$ modes, depending on the magnetization texture. The frequency range of these modes narrows with decreasing effective anisotropy and iDMI strength decreases in thicker Co layers in perpendicular configurations. Moreover, we observe a decrease in effective Gilbert damping with increasing Co thickness, highlighting the potential for efficient energy dissipation. These findings link between material properties and skyrmion dynamics directly and demonstrate tunable resonant modes for magnonic devices. By addressing both static and dynamic aspects, our work advances the development of next-generation spintronic and magnonic applications.

Sign change of the anomalous Hall effect and the anomalous Nernst effect in Weyl semimetal CeAlSi

We report the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) and the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) data for the non-collinear Weyl semimetal CeAlSi. The anomalous Hall conductivity (σ_ij^A) was measured for two different orientations of the magnetic field (B), namely σ_yz^A for B II a and σ_xy^A for B II c, where a and c denote the crystallographic axes. We find that σ_xy^A and σ_yz^A are of opposite sign and both are large below the Curie temperature (T_C). In the paramagnetic phase, σ_xy^A raises even more and goes through a maximum at T ~ 170 K, whereas the absolute value of σ_yz^A decreases with increasing temperature. The origin of the sign difference between σ_xy^A and σ_yz^A was attributed to the reconstruction of the band structure under the variation of the spin orientation. Further, in a system where humps in the AHE are present and scalar spin chirality is zero, we show that the k-space topology plays an important role to determine the transport properties at both low and high temperatures. We also observed the anomalous contribution in the Nernst conductivity (α_xy^A) measured for B II c. α_xy^A/T turns out to be sizeable in the magnetic phase and above T_C slowly decreases with temperature. We were able to recreate the temperature dependences of σ_xy^A and α_xy^A/T in the paramagnetic phase using a single band toy-model assuming a non-zero Berry curvature in the vicinity of the Weyl node. A decisive factor appears to be a small energy distance between the Fermi level and a Weyl point.

Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in epitaxial W/Co/Pt multilayers

Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) manifesting in asymmetric layered ferromagnetic films gives rise to non-colinear spin structures stabilizing magnetization configurations with nontrivial topology. In this work magnetization reversal, domain structure, and strength of DMI are related with the structure of W/Co/Pt multilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Applied growth method enables fabrication of layered systems with higher crystalline quality than commonly applied sputtering techniques. As a result, a high value of D coefficient was determined from the aligned magnetic domain stripe structure, substantially exceeding 2 mJ/m2. The highest value of DMI value D$_{eff}$ = 2.64mj/m2 and strength of surface DMI parameter DS = 1.83pJ/m for N=10 has been observed. Experimental results coincide precisely with those obtained from structure based micromagnetic modelling and density functional theory calculations performed for well-defined layered stacks. This high value of DMI strength originates from dominating contributions of the interfacial atomic Co layers and additive character from both interface types.
