Angular momentum compensation manipulation to room temperature of the ferrimagnet Ho$_{3-x}$Dy$_x$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$ detected by the Barnett effect

We demonstrate that the angular momentum compensation temperature $T_A$, at which the net angular momentum in the sample disappears, can be controlled in Ho$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$ by partially substituting Dy for Ho. The $T_A$ can be detected using the Barnett effect, by which mechanical rotation magnetizes an object due to spin-rotation coupling. We found that $T_A$ increases with the Dy content and clarified that the $T_A$ of Ho$_{1.5}$Dy$_{1.5}$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$ coincides with room temperature. The Barnett effect enables us to explore materials applicable to magnetic devices utilizing the angular momentum compensation only by rotating the powder sample at room temperature.

Observation of gyromagnetic reversal

We report direct observation of gyromagnetic reversal, which is the sign change of gyromagnetic ratio in a ferrimagnet Ho$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$, by using the Barnett effect measurement technique at low temperatures. The Barnett effect is a phenomenon in which magnetization is induced by mechanical rotation through the coupling between rotation and total angular momentum $J$ of electrons. The magnetization of Ho$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$ induced by mechanical rotation disappears at 135~K and 240~K. The temperatures correspond to the magnetization compensation temperature $T_{\rm M}$ and the angular momentum compensation temperature $T_{\rm A}$, respectively. Between $T_{\rm M}$ and $T_{\rm A}$, the magnetization flips over to be parallel against the angular momentum due to the sign change of gyromagnetic ratio. This study provides an unprecedented technique to explore the gyromagnetic properties.
