Magnetic frustration and non-collinear textures in layered Gd magnets

Using scale-bridging simulations based on electronic structure theory and atomistic spin dynamics, we investigate the magnetic properties of skyrmionic GdRu$_2$Si$_2$ and GdRu$_2$Ge$_2$ layered rare-earth magnets and similar Gd-based compounds (GdAu$_2$Si$_2$, GdAu$_2$Ge$_2$, GdAg$_2$Si$_2$ and GdAg$_2$Ge$_2$). By studying the trends across this structural family, we confirm the importance of magnetic frustration and dipolar interactions for the stability of non-collinear and skyrmion phases. Furthermore, our calculations predict promising opportunities for chemical tuning of these magnets in terms of the balance between various exchange interactions and the character of the magnetic anisotropy. These changes lead to the formation of new types of skyrmions that are stable in a wide range of applied external magnetic field. In particular, we propose partial alkali-metal substitution of Gd in GdRu$_2$Si$_2$ leading to GdKRu$_4$Si$_4$, GdRbRu$_4$Si$_4$, GdCsRu$_4$Si$_4$ as well as GdYRu$_4$Si$_4$ compounds, and suggest that it is likely to result in an ordered layered structure, similarly to previously reported iron pnictides like CaKFe$_4$As$_4$.

Mechanical control of magnetic exchange and response in GdRu$_2$Si$_2$: A computational study

We present a systematic computational study of the effect of uniaxial strain on the magnetic properties of GdRu$_2$Si$_2$, a centrosymmetric material known to host a field-induced skyrmion lattice (SkL). Using first-principles density functional theory, we first demonstrate the pronounced sensitivity of the exchange and anisotropy to specific structural distortions. These DFT-derived interactions are then integrated into a classical spin model to construct comprehensive magnetic phase diagrams under both compressive and tensile strain. Our key finding is that compressive strain ($\sim 2\%$) acts as an effective tuning parameter, substantially expanding the stability region of the $\vec Q_{100}$-driven topologically nontrivial phases. This results from the shifts in the critical magnetic fields and enhancement of the energy scale of the favored magnetic wave vector. In contrast, tensile strain induces a different magnetic ground-state by promoting a different magnetic ordering vector, $\vec Q_{110}$, leading to entirely distinct phase behavior. This work not only provides a quantitative understanding of the structural-magnetic coupling in GdRu$_2$Si$_2$ but also establishes strain engineering as a powerful approach to control and optimize topologically non-trivial magnetic phases in centrosymmetric magnets.

Spatial dependence of the break in the energy spectrum of cosmic rays in the new anisotropic diffusion approach

At present, there is no consensus on whether the spectral break in the cosmic-ray flux of all elements around 4 PeV is a general characteristic of the Milky Way or is determined by a combination of factors that significantly affect the energy position of the knee. We argue that considering the anisotropic propagation of cosmic rays within a realistically modeled Galactic magnetic field enables an accurate description of the spectral break without invoking a source-related cutoff energy, and naturally predicts a spatial dependence of this phenomenon. To demonstrate this, we constructed a 3D diffusion propagation model with a diffusion tensor within a two-component magnetic field and determined both the local cosmic-ray spectrum and the spectra for specific regions of the Milky Way. We found that the spectral break is well reproduced by the energy dependence of the diffusion tensor components and appears at different energies in various regions of the Galaxy due to the inclusion of the turbulent component of the magnetic field. Furthermore, the spectral slope is determined by the degree of anisotropy in cosmic-ray diffusion. The model is based on the calculation of the diffusion tensor components using the trajectory method and on the direct solution of the stationary diffusion equation with a fully anisotropic diffusion tensor that includes all nine components in the global Galactic coordinate system, accounting for off-diagonal terms arising from the projection of locally field-aligned diffusion. We calculated the integral flux of diffuse gamma rays in the inner and outer regions of the Galaxy based on the cosmic-ray proton and nuclei spectra obtained within our model, which features a spatially dependent position of the knee. The resulting spectral shape of the diffuse gamma-ray flux is consistent with experimental data from LHAASO and Fermi-LAT.

Unveiling Mysteries of GdRu$_2$Si$_2$: 3D Magnetism in a layered like Magnet

GdRu$_2$Si$_2$, a centrosymmetric magnet with a square lattice of Gd atoms, hosts a short-period skyrmion square lattice (SkL) without Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). RKKY-type exchange between the Gd moments results in an exchange frustration, which is the main source of non-collinearity in the spiral phases of the system. Previous studies focused on the in-plane $\vec{Q}$ vectors in understanding the magnetic phases of the system as they appear and have been observed on the 2D Gd layers. In this work, we calculate the Gd-Gd magnetic exchange interactions ($J_{ij}$) and perform atomic spin dynamics (ASD) simulations, providing new insights about GdRu$_2$Si$_2$. Our calculated $J_{ij}$ shows that the strongest magnetic interaction occurs between Gd atoms along the [111] body-diagonal direction of the unit cell. This, along with the body-centered tetragonal structure of the Gd sublattice, points to the presence of a hitherto ignored modulation vector, $\vec{Q}_{[111]}$, along the [111] direction in the spiral phases of the system. ASD simulations confirm this interlayer modulation, demonstrating that GdRu$_2$Si$_2$'s magnetic phases are more complex than suggested by 2D layer observations. The total magnetic order is determined by $\vec{Q}_{[111]}$ alongside intralayer $\vec{Q}_{[100]}$ and $\vec{Q}_{[010]}$, establishing GdRu$_2$Si$_2$ as a strong 3D magnet requiring comprehensive theoretical modeling. Considering these, our ASD simulations accurately reproduce experimental phase transitions and highlight the significant role of dipolar interactions (due to the large Gd moment) over a weak uniaxial anisotropy in determining the ground state. This work enhances the understanding of GdRu$_2$Si$_2$'s complex magnetism, suggesting similar interlayer effects may be important in other layered magnetic systems.

Complex magnetic exchange, anisotropy and skyrmionic textures in two-dimensional FeXZ$_{2}$ (\textit{X} = Nb, Ta and \textit{Z} = S, Se, Te) ferromagnets

FeNbTe$_{2}$, long known as a van der Waals metallic system, has recently been resynthesized and shown to exhibit ferromagnetic order. In this study, using first-principles density functional theory (DFT), we aim to provide a deeper insight into the magnetic properties of FeNbTe$_{2}$ and its related compounds (FeXZ$_{2}$, \textit{X} = Nb, Ta; \textit{Z} = S, Se, Te), in their two-dimensional form, including their non-centrosymmetric Janus counterparts. Our results indicate that these materials are energetically, dynamically, thermally, and mechanically stable, supporting the possibility of FeNbTe$_{2}$ exfoliation and potential for experimental realization of new compounds. An evolutionary structure search suggests that FeNbTe$_{2}$ retains its monoclinic symmetry in the monolayer form. Our analysis of hopping parameters obtained from Wannierization of DFT bands shows that the nearest-neighbor magnetic interactions are primarily direct, while second-nearest and more distant interactions are mediated by the chalcogen atoms. Interestingly, although the second-nearest-neighbor interactions are smaller in magnitude, they appear to play a key role in determining the magnetic ordering in these systems. We also find evidence of canted magnetic anisotropy in FeXZ$_{2}$ compounds, with relatively strong magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy and easy-axis deviations of up to 41$^\circ$ from the out-of-plane direction-an uncommon and potentially useful feature for spintronic applications. Curie temperatures estimated from Monte Carlo simulations are below room temperature but above cryogenic levels for most compounds. Micromagnetic simulations revealed that Janus-structured FeNbSeTe can host Néel-type skyrmions even in the absence of an external magnetic field, making this compound a suitable candidate for further experimental studies.

Charge-state dependent spin-orbit coupling and quantum phase transitions in Ir-Ru oxides

The competition between kinematic, relativistic and Coulombic interactions in iridium-based oxides has spurred intense experimental and theoretical investigations regarding the electronic structure and magnetism. We argue here that the Iridium-Ruthenium triple perovskites, Ba$_3$MRuIrO$_9$ (M = Li, Mg and In), are of particular interest in this regard. We show here, using ab-initio theory, that the nominal charge states of Ir can be tuned from +6 to +4 by choosing non-magnetic 'M' ions as Li (+1), Mg(+2) and In (+3). This variation modulates the influence of the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) which is found here to be negligible in Ba$_3$LiRuIrO$_9$, moderate in Ba$_3$MgRuIrO$_9$ and determining in Ba$_3$InRuIrO$_9$. Our analysis classifies Ba$_3$LiRuIrO$_9$ as a band-insulator, Ba$_3$MgRuIrO$_9$ as a SOC and correlation driven insulator and Ba$_3$InRuIrO$_9$ as $J_{\rm eff} = 1/2$ Mott-Hubbard insulator. As reported here, correlated electronic structure theory results in sizeable magnetic moments of both Ru and Ir atoms in these systems and atomistic spin-dynamics simulations capture the experimental Néel temperature for Ba$_3$LiRuIrO$_9$ and Ba$_3$MgRuIrO$_9$ and provide evidence for a phase transition for Ba$_3$InRuIrO$_9$ when T $\to$ 0 K, to a multi-valley magnetic state with strong magnetic frustration. The theory identifies the presence of Kitaev interaction among the iridium atoms in Ba$_3$InRuIrO$_9$. The realization of such strong anisotropic interactions helps to stabilize a particularly complex energy landscape of Ba$_3$InRuIrO$_9$, that opens up for exotic magnetic quantum phases.

Ultrafast demagnetization dynamics of 4f antiferromagnets

We study the ultrafast demagnetization dynamics of LnRh$_2$Si$_2$ (Ln $=$ Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) antiferromagnets (AFM) after excitation by a laser pulse, using a combination of density functional theory and atomistic spin and spin-lattice dynamics simulations. First, we calculate the Heisenberg interactions using the magnetic force theorem and compare two approaches, where the $4f$ states of the rare earths are treated as frozen core states or as valence states with added correlation corrections. We find marked quantitative differences in terms of predicted Curie temperature for most of the systems, especially for those with large orbital moment of the rare earth cations. This can be attributed to the importance of indirect interactions of the $4f$ states through the Si states, which depend on the binding energy of the $4f$ states and coexists with RKKY-type interactions mediated by the conduction states. However, qualitatively, both approaches agree in terms of the predicted AFM ordering at low temperatures. In the second step, the atomistic dynamics simulations are combined with a heat-conserving two-temperature model, allowing for the calculation of spin and electronic temperatures during the magnetization dynamics simulations. Despite quite different demagnetization times, magnetization dynamics of all studied LnRh$_2$Si$_2$ AFM exhibit similar two-step behavior, in particular, the first fast drop followed by slower demagnetization. We observe that the demagnetization amplitude depends linearly on laser fluence for low fluences, which is in agreement with experimental observations. We also investigate the impact of lattice dynamics on ultrafast demagnetization using coupled atomistic spin-lattice dynamics simulations and a heat-conserving three-temperature model, which confirm linear dependence of magnetisation on laser fluence.

Pressure-Tuned Magnetism and Bandgap Modulation in Layered Fe-Doped CrCl3

We explore the structural, magnetic, vibrational and optical band gap properties under varying pressures. By integrating first-principles calculations with experimental techniques, including Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL), uniaxial pressure studies (thermal expansion), and magnetization measurements, we unveil the intricate pressure-induced transformations in Fe-doped CrCl3, shedding light on its structural, electronic, and magnetic evolution. At ambient pressure, Raman spectra confirm all expected Raman-active modes, which exhibit blue shifts with increasing pressure. The PL measurements demonstrate an optical bandgap of 1.48 eV at ~0.6 GPa, with a progressive increase in the bandgap under pressure, transitioning slower above 6 GPa due to an isostructural phase transition. Magnetization results under pressure shows two competing magnetic components (FM and AFM) at ambient conditions, where at the lowest temperature and applied field, the FM component dominates. The presence of competing FM and AFM energy scales is confirmed by Grueneisen analysis of the thermal expansion and their uniaxial pressure dependence is determined. The experimental findings agree with theoretical results based on Density functional theory (DFT). In the experiments, we observe a pressure-enhanced ferromagnetic interlayer coupling that is followed by the stabilization of antiferromagnetic ordering, due to weakened direct interlayer interactions. Above 1.2 GPa the FM component of the magnetism is gone in the experimental observations, which is also in good agreement with DFT based theory. The findings reported here underscore the potential of CrCl3 for use in pressure-tunable magnetic and optoelectronic applications, where, e.g., the delicate balance between FM and AFM configurations could have potential for sensor applications.

From electronic structure to magnetism and skyrmions (Topical review)

Solid state theory, density functional theory and its generalizations for correlated systems together with numerical simulations on supercomputers allow nowadays to model magnetic systems realistically and in detail and can be even used to predict new materials, paving the way for more rapid material development for applications in energy storage and conversion, information technologies, sensors, actuators etc. Modelling magnets on different length scales (between a few Ångström and several micrometers) requires, however, approaches with very different mathematical formulations. Parameters defining the material in each formulation can be determined either by fitting experimental data or from theoretical calculations and there exists a well-established approach for obtaining model parameters for each length scale using the information from the smaller length scale. In this review, this approach will be explained step-by-step in textbook style with examples of successful multiscale modelling of different classes of magnetic materials from the research literature as well as based on results newly obtained for this review.

Tunable topological magnetism in superlattices of nonmagnetic B20 systems

We predict topological magnetic properties of B20 systems, that are organized in atomically thin multilayers. In particular we focus on FeSi/CoSi and FeSi/FeGe superlattices with different number of layers and interface structure. We demonstrate that absence of long range magnetic order, previously observed in bulk FeSi and CoSi, is broken near the FeSi/CoSi interface, where a magnetic state with non-trivial topology appears. Using electronic structure calculations in combination with the magnetic force theorem, we calculate the Heisenberg and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interactions in these systems. With this information, we perform atomistic spin dynamics simulations at finite temperature and applied magnetic field for large supercells with up to $2\cdot10^6$ spins to capture the complexity of non-collinear textures induced by the DM interaction. The spin dynamics simulations predict the formation of antiskyrmions in a [001]-oriented FeSi/CoSi multilayer, intermediate skyrmions in a [111]-oriented FeSi/CoSi system and Bloch skyrmions in the FeSi/FeGe (001) system. The size of different types of skyrmions is found to vary between 7 nm and 37 nm. The varying topological magnetic texture in these systems can be attributed to the complex asymmetric structure of the DM micromagnetic matrix, which is different from previously known topological magnets. Furthermore, through structural engineering, we demonstrate that both FM and AFM skyrmions can be stabilized, where the latter are especially appealing for applications due to the zero skyrmion Hall effect. The proposed B20 multilayers show potential for further exploration and call for experimental confirmation.

Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, Néel skyrmions and V$_4$ magnetic clusters in multiferroic lacunar spinel GaV$_4$S$_8$

Using ab initio density functional theory with static mean-field correlations, we calculate the Heisenberg and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI) for an atomistic spin Hamiltonian for the lacunar spinel, GaV$_4$S$_8$. The parameters describing these interactions are used in atomistic spin dynamics and micromagnetic simulations. The magnetic properties of the lacunar spinel GaV$_4$S$_8$, a material well-known from experiment to host magnetic skyrmions of Néel character, are simulated with these ab initio calculated parameters. The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya contribution to the micromagnetic energy is a sum of two Lifshitz invariants, supporting the formation of Néel skyrmions and its symmetry agrees with what is usually expected for $C_{3ν}$-symmetric systems. The are several conclusions one may draw from this work. One concerns the quantum nature of the magnetism, where we show that the precise magnetic state of the V$_4$ cluster is crucial for understanding quantitatively the magnetic phase diagram. In particular we demonstrate that a distributed-moment state of each V$_4$ cluster explains well a variety of properties of GaV$_4$S$_8$, such as the band gap, observed Curie temperature and especially the stability of Néel skyrmions in the experimentally relevant temperature and magnetic-field range. In addition, we find that electronic correlations change visibly the calculated value of the DMI.

Unraveling effects of electron correlation in two-dimensional Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ (n=3, 4, 5) by dynamical mean field theory

The Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ systems are newly discovered two-dimensional van-der-Waals materials, exhibiting magnetism at room temperature. The sub-systems belonging to Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ class are special because they show site-dependent magnetic behavior. We focus on the critical evaluation of magnetic properties and electron correlation effects in Fe$_{n}$GeTe$_{2}$ ($n$= 3, 4, 5) (FGT) systems performing first-principles calculations. Three different ab-initio approaches have been used, viz., i) standard density functional theory (DFT), ii) incorporating static electron correlation (DFT+U) and iii) inclusion of dynamic electron correlation effect (DFT+DMFT). Our results show that DFT+DMFT is the most accurate technique to correctly reproduce the magnetic interactions and experimentally observed transition temperatures. The inaccurate values of structural parameters, magnetic moments and exchange interactions obtained from DFT+U make this method inapplicable for the FGT family. Correct determination of magnetic properties for this class of materials is important since they are promising candidates for spin transport and spintronic applications at room temperature.

Tuning skyrmions in B20 compounds by 4d and 5d doping

Skyrmion stabilization in novel magnetic systems with the B20 crystal structure is reported here, primarily based on theoretical results. The focus is on the effect of alloying on the 3d sublattice of the B20 structure by substitution of heavier 4d and 5d elements, with the ambition to tune the spin-orbit coupling and its influence on magnetic interactions. State-of-the-art methods based on density functional theory are used to calculate both isotropic and anisotropic exchange interactions. Significant enhancement of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is reported for 5d-doped FeSi and CoSi, accompanied by a large modification of the spin stiffness and spiralization. Micromagnetic simulations coupled to atomistic spin-dynamics and ab initio magnetic interactions reveal a helical ground state and field-induced skyrmions for all these systems. Especially small skyrmions $\sim$50 nm are predicted for Co$_{0.75}$Os$_{0.25}$Si, compared to $\sim$148 nm for Fe$_{0.75}$Co$_{0.25}$Si. Convex-hull analysis suggests that all B20 compounds considered here are structurally stable at elevated temperatures and should be possible to synthesize. This prediction is confirmed experimentally by synthesis and structural analysis of the Ru-doped CoSi systems discussed here, both in powder and in single-crystal forms.

Construction of $A$-$B$ hetero-layer intermetallic crystals: case studies of the 1144-phase TM-phosphides \textit{AB}(TM)$_4$P$_4$ (TM=Fe, Ru, Co, Ni

The discovery of the 1144-phase, e.g. CaKFe$_4$As$_4$, creates opportunities to build novel intermetallics with alternative stacking of two parent compounds. Here we formalize the idea by defining a class of bulk crystalline solids with $A$-$B$ stacking (including 1144-phases and beyond), which is a generalization of hetero-structures from few-layer or thin-film semi-conductors to bulk intermetallics. Theoretically, four families of phosphides \textit{AB}(TM)$_4$P$_4$ (TM=Fe, Ru, Co, Ni) are investigated by first-principles calculations, wherein configurational, vibrational and electronic degrees of freedom are considered. It predicts a variety of stable 1144-phases (especially Ru- and Fe-phosphides). Stability rules are found and structural/electronic properties are discussed. Experimentally, we synthesize high-purity CaKRu$_4$P$_4$ as a proof of principle example. The synthetic method is simple and easily applied. Moreover, it alludes to a strategy to explore complex multi-component compounds, facilitated by a phase diagram coordinated by collective descriptors.

Orbital Occupancy and Hybridization in Strained SrVO$_3$ Epitaxial Films

Oxygen packaging in transition metal oxides determines the metal-oxygen hybridization and electronic occupation at metal orbitals. Strontium vanadate (SrVO$_3$), having a single electron in a $3d$ orbital, is thought to be the simplest example of strongly correlated metallic oxides. Here, we determine the effects of epitaxial strain on the electronic properties of SrVO$_3$ thin films, where the metal-oxide sublattice is corner-connected. Using x-ray absorption and x-ray linear dichroism at the V $L_{2,3}$ and O $K$-edges, it is observed that tensile or compressive epitaxial strain change the hierarchy of orbitals within the $t_{2g}$ and $e_g$ manifolds. Data show a remarkable $2p-3d$ hybridization, as well as a strain-induced reordering of the V $3d$($t_{2g}$, $e_g$) orbitals. The latter is itself accompanied by a consequent change of hybridization that modulates the hybrid $π^*$ and $σ^*$ orbitals and the carrier population at the metal ions, challenging a rigid band picture.

Pseudoelasticity of SrNi$_2$P$_2$ micropillar via Double Lattice Collapse and Expansion

The maximum recoverable strain of most crystalline solids is less than 1% because plastic deformation or fracture usually occurs at a small strain. In this work, we show that a SrNi$_2$P$_2$ micropillar exhibits pseudoelasticity with a large maximum recoverable strain of ~14% under uniaxial compression via unique reversible structural transformation, double lattice collapse-expansion that is repeatable under cyclic loading. Its high yield strength (~3.8$\pm$0.5 GPa) and large maximum recoverable strain bring out the ultrahigh modulus of resilience (~146$\pm$19MJ/m$^3$) a few orders of magnitude higher than that of most engineering materials. The double lattice collapse-expansion mechanism shows stress-strain behaviors similar with that of conventional shape memory alloys, such as hysteresis and thermo-mechanical actuation, even though the structural changes involved are completely different. Our work suggests that the discovery of a new class of high performance ThCr$_2$Si$_2$-structured materials will open new research opportunities in the field of pseudoelasticity.

Exchange constants for local spin Hamiltonians from tight-binding models

We consider the mapping of tight-binding electronic structure theory to a local spin Hamiltonian, based on the adiabatic approximation for spin degrees of freedom in itinerant-electron systems. Local spin Hamiltonians are introduced in order to describe the energy landscape of small magnetic fluctuations, locally around a given spin configuration. They are designed for linear response near a given magnetic state and in general insufficient to capture arbitrarily strong deviations of spin configurations from the equilibrium. In order to achieve this mapping, we include a linear term in the local spin Hamiltonian that, together with the usual bilinear exchange tensor, produces an improved accuracy of effective magnetic Weiss fields for non-collinear states. We also provide examples from tight-binding electronic structure theory, where our implementation of the calculation of exchange constants is based on constraining fields that stabilize an out-of-equilibrium spin configuration. We check our formalism by means of numerical calculations for iron dimers and chains.

Heisenberg and anisotropic exchange interactions in magnetic materials with correlated electronic structure and significant spin-orbit coupling

The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction, as well as symmetric anisotropic exchange, are important ingredients for stabilizing topologically non-trivial magnetic textures, such as, e.g., skyrmions, merons and hopfions. These types of textures are currently in focus from a fundamental science perspective and they are also discussed in the context of future spintronics information technology. While the theoretical understanding of the Heisenberg exchange interactions is well developed, it is still a challenge to access, from first principles theory, the DM interaction as well as the symmetric anisotropic exchange, which both require a fully-relativistic treatment of the electronic structure, in magnetic systems where substantial electron-electron correlations are present. Here, we present results of a theoretical framework which allows to compute these interactions in any given system and demonstrate its performance for several selected cases, for both bulk and low-dimensional systems. We address several representative cases, including the bulk systems CoPt and FePt, the B20 compounds MnSi and FeGe as well as the low-dimensional transition metal bilayers Co/Pt(111) and Mn/W(001). The effect of electron-electron correlations is analyzed using dynamical mean-field theory on the level of the spin-polarized $T$-matrix + fluctuating exchange (SPTF) approximation, as regards the strength and character of the isotropic (Heisenberg) and anisotropic (DM) interactions in relation to the underlying electronic structure. Our method can be combined with more advanced techniques for treating correlations, e.g., quantum Monte Carlo and exact diagonalization methods for the impurity solver of dynamical mean-field theory. We find that correlation-induced changes of the DM interaction can be rather significant, with up to five-fold modifications in the most distinctive case.
