英文摘要:
The ternary intermetallic compound Pr6Ni2Si3, is a member of a structure series of compounds based on a triangular structure where the number of Pr atoms in the prism cross section can be systematically varied. Pr6Ni2Si3 contains two distinct Pr lattice sites which result in complex interactions between the magnetic ions. Extensive measurements of specific heat and magnetization on single crystal samples indicate that Pr6Ni2Si3 orders with both a ferromagnet and an antiferromagnet component, with ordering temperatures of 39.6 K and ~ 32 K, respectively. The ferromagnetic component // c-axis is accompanied by a large hysteresis, and the antiferromagnetic component,_|_ c-axis is accompanied by a spin-flop-type transition. More detailed measurements, of the vector magnetization, indicate that the ferromagnetic and the antiferromagnetic order appear independent of each other. These results not only clarify the behavior of Pr6Ni2Si3 itself, but also of the other members of the structure series, Pr5Ni2Si3 and Pr15Ni7Si10.
We study the mechanism of the exceptionally large anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in the noncentrosymmetric antiferromagnet $\mathrm{Co}\mathrm{Nb}_3\mathrm{S}_6$ by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and magnetotransport measurements. From ARPES measurements of $\mathrm{Co}\mathrm{Nb}_3\mathrm{S}_6$ and its family compounds ($\mathrm{Fe}\mathrm{Nb}_3\mathrm{S}_6$ and $\mathrm{Ni}\mathrm{Nb}_3\mathrm{S}_6$), we find a band dispersion unique to the Co intercalation existing near the Fermi level. We further demonstrate that a slight deficiency of sulfur in $\mathrm{Co}\mathrm{Nb}_3\ma…
Orthorhombic single crystals of TbMn0.5Fe0.5O3 are found to exhibit spin-reorientation, magnetization reversal and weak ferromagnetism. Strong anisotropy effects are evident in the temperature dependent magnetization measurements along the three crystallographic axes a, b and c. A broad magnetic transition is visible at T_N (Fe/Mn) = 286 K due to paramagnetic to AxGyCz ordering. A sharp transition is observed at T_SR (Fe/Mn) = 28 K, which is pronounced along c axis in the form of a sharp jump in magnetization where the spins reorient to GxAyFz configuration. The negative magnetization observed…

Hysteresis is observed in R-T measurements in cooling and warming cycle, showing the presence of first order phase transition and charge ordering in the synthesized sample. The synthe…
The interplay among topology, superconductivity, and magnetism promises to bring a plethora of exotic and unintuitive behaviors in emergent quantum materials. The family of Fe-chalcogenide superconductors FeTexSe1-x are directly relevant in this context due to their intrinsic topological band structure, high-temperature superconductivity, and unconventional pairing symmetry. Despite enormous promise and expectation, the local magnetic properties of FeTexSe1-x remain largely unexplored, which prevents a comprehensive understanding of their underlying material properties. Exploiting nitrogen vac…
Despite the recent success in the realization of the quantum anomalous Hall effect, the underlying physical mechanism of the long range Ferromagnetism is still unclear. Based on our density functional theory calculations, we discovered an intriguing long-range ferromagnetic order in Cr-doped, carrier-free Bi2Te3, with the separation between dopants more than 8 Å. We found that this magnetic coupling is facilitated by an anti-bonding state originated from the lone pair of a Te 5p state and a Bi 6s state, despite this anti-bonding state lies below the valence band maximum. Such a state serves as…

Intrinsic structural phase is a crucial foundation for the fundamental physical properties, and for creating innovative devices with unprecedented performances and unique functionalities. Long-range ferromagnetic orders of van der Waals CrI3 are strongly tied with interlayer stacking orders. However, the intrinsic structure of few-layer CrI3 still remains elusive; the predicted monoclinic phase has not yet been experimentally detected in bare few-layer CrI3. Here we uncover the intrinsic structure of few-layer CrI3 with interlayer antiferromagnetic coupling, which unambiguously show monoclinic…
The discoveries of intrinsic ferromagnetism in atomically-thin van der Waals crystals have opened up a new research field enabling fundamental studies on magnetism at two-dimensional (2D) limit as well as development of magnetic van der Waals heterostructures. To date, a variety of 2D ferromagnetism has been explored mainly by mechanically exfoliating 'originally ferromagnetic (FM)' van der Waals crystals, while bottom-up approach by thin film growth technique has demonstrated emergent 2D ferromagnetism in a variety of 'originally non-FM' van der Waals materials. Here we demonstrate that V5Se8…
Pyrochlore iridates have recently attracted growing interest in condensed matter physics because of their potential for realizing new topological states. In order to achieve such quantum states, it is essential to understand themagnetic properties of these compounds, as their electronic structures are strongly coupled with theirmagnetic ground states. In this work, we report a systematic study of the magnetic properties of pyrochlore Y2Ir2O7 and its hole-doped compounds by performing magnetic, electron spin resonance, electrical transport, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurement…
The weak antilocalization (WAL) effect is known as a quantum correction to the classical conductivity, which never appeared in two-dimensional magnets. In this work, we reported the observation of a WAL effect in the van der Waals ferromagnet Fe5-xGeTe2 with a Curie temperature Tc ~ 270 K, which can even reach as high as ~ 120 K. The WAL effect could be well described by the Hikami-Larkin-Nagaoka and Maekawa-Fukuyama theories in the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Moreover, A crossover from a peak to dip behavior around 60 K in both the magnetoresistance and magnetoconductance wa…
Ferromagnetism in two-dimensional materials presents a promising platform for the development of ultrathin spintronic devices with advanced functionalities. Recently discovered ferromagnetic van der Waals crystals such as CrI$_{3}$, readily isolated two-dimensional crystals, are highly tunable through external fields or structural modifications. However, there remains a challenge because of material instability under air exposure. Here, we report the observation of an air stable and layer dependent ferromagnetic (FM) van der Waals crystal, CrPS$_{4}$, using magneto-optic Kerr effect microscopy…
We report on crystal structure, magnetic and thermal physical properties of EuPd$_2$Sn$_4$ stannide. From the magnetic susceptibility measurements a divalent state of Eu rare earth element was determined together with an antiferromagnetic (AFM) order at 11 K. By applying magnetic field, the magnetic behavior variation reveals a complex magnetic structure. Above a critical field Bc a ferromagnetic (FM)-like character starts to prevail. AFM and FM regimes are separated by a metamagnetic region. Heat capacity measurements confirm this behavior.
We report a combined experimental and theoretical study on intriguing magnetic properties of quasiferroelectric orthochromates. Large single crystals of the family of RECrO$_3$ (RE = Y, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu) compounds were successfully grown. Neutron Laue study indicates a good quality of the obtained single crystals. Applied magnetic-field and temperature dependent magnetization measurements reveal their intrinsic magnetic properties, especially the antiferromagnetic (AFM) transition temperatures. Density functional theory studies of the electronic structures were carried ou…
We study the electronic structure of the Pd-terminated surface of the non-magnetic delafossite oxide metal PdCoO$_2$. Combining angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density-functional theory, we show how an electronic reconstruction driven by surface polarity mediates a Stoner-like magnetic instability towards itinerant surface ferromagnetism. Our results reveal how this leads to a rich multi-band surface electronic structure, and provide spectroscopic evidence for an intriguing sample-dependent coupling of the surface electrons to a bosonic mode which we attribute to electron-magnon …
We investigate near-Fermi-energy (EF) element-specific electronic and spin states of ferromagnetic van der Waals (vdW) metal Fe5GeTe2. The soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (SX-ARPES) measurement provides spectroscopic evidence of localized Fe 3d band. We also find prominent hybridization between the localized Fe 3d band and the delocalized Ge/Te p bands. This picture is strongly supported from direct observation of the remarkable spin polarization of the ligand p bands near EF, using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements. The strength of XMCD signal from lig…
