AI总结:

本文提出了一种基于自旋空间群的统一框架,用于分类和揭示非常规磁性材料的对称性驱动机制。

摘要:

非常规磁性通常被分为两大类:偶 parity 磁体(EPMs)和奇 parity 磁体(OPMs)。这两类在动量反转下分别表现出相同和相反的自旋分裂,同时两者都保持对称补偿的磁化。在本信件中,我们提出了一种统一的自旋空间群框架,建立了对两类的全面对称性标准。我们的框架不仅能够对 EPMs 和 OPMs 进行完整分类,还揭示了大量新的由对称性驱动的机制。具体来说,我们根据其自旋纹理将两类分为三种类型:线性(类型 I)、共面(类型 II)和非共面(类型 III),并证明两类可以在线性、共面和非共面的磁序中实现。我们识别出八种不同的由对称性驱动的机制用于 OPMs,以及七种用于 EPMs,其中一些非常规磁性的范例,例如交替磁体自然地作为 EPMs 的一种特定机制出现。利用这些确立的标准,我们从 Magndata 数据库中识别出众多候选材料,实现了某些新的对称性机制用于 OPMs 和 EPMs。我们的工作为理解、预测和设计非常规磁性材料奠定了基础对称性框架。

英文摘要:

Unconventional magnetism has typically been classified into two fundamental classes: even-parity magnets (EPMs) and odd-parity magnets (OPMs). These two classes exhibit identical and opposite spin splittings, respectively, under momentum inversion, while both maintain symmetry-compensated magnetization. In this Letter, we present a unified spin space group-based framework that establishes comprehensive symmetry criteria for both classes. Our framework not only yields a complete classification of EPMs and OPMs but also uncovers a wealth of new symmetry-driven mechanisms for them. Specifically, we classify both classes into three types based on their spin textures: collinear (type-I), coplanar (type-II), and noncoplanar (type-III), and we demonstrate that both classes can be realized across collinear, coplanar, and noncoplanar magnetic orders. We identify eight distinct symmetry-driven mechanisms for OPMs and seven for EPMs, among which some paradigms of unconventional magnetism, for instance, altermagnets naturally emerge as one specific mechanism of EPMs. Using these established criteria, we identify numerous candidate materials from the Magndata database, realizing some new symmetry mechanisms for OPMs and EPMs. Our work establishes a foundational symmetry framework for understanding, predicting, and designing unconventional magnetic materials.
