摘要:

研究了两种不同磁性拓扑半金属Co_3Sn_2S_2和Fe_3GeTe_2在较宽温度范围内的磁化反转和一级反转曲线。对于磁化反转,我们观察到强烈的温度依赖性的初始(低温)的阶梯状磁化开关,所以反转磁滞出现在高温。通常情况下,磁滞回线的反转是两个独立磁相材料的指纹,反转反映了相的相互作用。一阶反转曲线分析证实了即使在实验的最低温度下的两相行为。虽然体铁磁磁化强度表现出很强的温度依赖性,所观察到的相之一,表现出完美的稳定性低于居里温度。得到的磁滞回线的蝴蝶结型,这通常归因于外观的skyrmionic相。所描述的两相行为对于Co3Sn2S2和Fe3GeTe2磁性拓扑半金属来说基本上是相同的,只是这些材料的特征温度不同。我们的实验的特点是第二相具有良好的温度稳定性,而skyrmions通常在居里温度附近观察到。另一方面,由于拓扑半金属表面态的拓扑保护作用,表面态诱导自旋织构具有温度稳定性。这也解释了两种不同拓扑结构的半金属Co_3Sn_2S_2和FGT的第二相的普遍行为。这两种材料具有强烈不同的体性质,唯一的相似之处是拓扑表面态的存在。因此,我们可以归因于第二,温度稳定的磁相的表面状态拓扑半金属。

英文摘要:

We study magnetization reversal and first order reversal curves for two different magnetic topological semimetals, Co3Sn2S2 and Fe3GeTe2, in a wide temperature range. For the magnetization reversal, we observe strong temperature dependence of the initial (low-temperature) step-like magnetization switchings, so the inverted hysteresis appears at high temperatures. Usually, the inverted hysteresis is a fingerprint of material with two independent magnetic phases, the inversion reflects the phase interaction. First order reversal curve analysis confirms the two-phase behavior even at the lowest temperatures of the experiment. While the bulk ferromagnetic magnetization shows strong temperature dependence, one of the observed phases demonstrates perfect stability below the Curie temperature. The obtained hysteresis loops are of the bow-tie type, which is usually ascribed to appearance of the skyrmionic phase. The described two-phase behavior is mostly identical for Co3Sn2S2 and Fe3GeTe2 magnetic topological semimetals, only the characteristic temperatures differ for these materials. The specifics of our experiment is the excellent temperature stability of the second phase, while the skyrmions are usually observed near the Curie temperature. On the other hand, temperature stability can be expected for surface-state induced spin textures due to the topological protection of surface states in topological semimetals. This also explains the universal behavior of the second phase for two different topological semimetals Co3Sn2S2 and FGT. Both these materials have strongly different bulk properties, the only similarity is the presence of the topological surface states. Thus, we can ascribe the second, temperature-stable magnetic phase to the surface states in topological semimetals.
