被引用回数：25 パーセンタイル：99.59(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Magnetic skyrmions are topologically stable swirling spin textures with particle-like character, and have been intensively studied as a candidate of high-density information bit. While magnetic skyrmions were originally discovered in noncentrosymmetric systems, recently a nanometric skyrmion lattice has also been reported for centrosymmetric rare-earth compounds. For the latter systems, a novel skyrmion formation mechanism mediated by itinerant electrons has been proposed, and the search of a simpler model system allowing for a better understanding of their intricate magnetic phase diagram is highly demanded. Here, we report the discovery of square and rhombic lattices of nanometric skyrmions in a centrosymmetric binary compound EuAl
, by performing small-angle neutron and resonant elastic X-ray scattering experiments. Unlike previously reported centrosymmetric skyrmion-hosting materials, EuAl shows multiple-step reorientation of the fundamental magnetic modulation vector as a function of magnetic field, probably reflecting a delicate balance of associated itinerant-electron-mediated interactions. The present results demonstrate that a variety of distinctive skyrmion orders can be derived even in a simple centrosymmetric binary compound, which highlights rare-earth intermetallic systems as a promising platform to realize/control the competition of multiple topological magnetic phases in a single material.

被引用回数：28 パーセンタイル：91.72(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)For the skyrmion-hosting intermetallic GdPdSi with centrosymmetric hexagonal lattice and triangular net of rare earth sites, we report a thorough investigation of the magnetic phase diagram. Our work reveals a magnetic phase with an isotropic value of the critical field for all orientations, where the magnetic ordering vector 
is depinned from its preferred directions in the basal plane. The bulk nature of the skyrmion lattice and of other magnetic phases was evidenced by specific-heat measurements. Resistivity anisotropy, likely originating from partial gapping of the density of states along in this Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yoshida magnet, is picked up via the planar Hall effect (PHE). The PHE confirms the single- nature of the magnetic order when the field is in the hexagonal plane, and allows one to detect the preferred directions of . Several scenarios for the depinned phase are discussed on the basis of the data.

The temperature dependence of magnetic susceptibility shows an anomaly at 564 K, suggesting the onset of antiferromagnetic order of Fe
moments. Electric polarization appears in a magnetic field below TN due to the spin-direction-dependent metal-ligand hybridization. The direction of the electric polarization can be controlled in three-dimensional space by changing the direction of an external magnetic field. This compound also shows an antiferromagnetic-to-weak-ferromagnetic transition accompanied by a structural phase transition at 140 K.

The scattering intensity of excitation around 20 meV disappears in the collinear intermediate-temperature cubic-ferrimagnetic phase, which reveals that this excitation should be peculiar to the orbital ordered phase. We have found a weakly dispersive mode emergent from a non-integer wavevector 
at 56 K, which lies in the cubic-ferrimagnetic phase between non-coplanar ferrimagnetic and paramagnetic phases. This indicates that the probable presence of an incommensurate instability in the simple collinear structure.

被引用回数：11 パーセンタイル：65.2(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the magnetic dynamics in the spinel-type vanadium oxide MnVO. Inelastic neutron scattering around 10 meV and a Heisenberg model analysis have revealed that V spin-wave modes exist at a lower-energy region than previously reported. The scattering around 20 meV cannot be reproduced with the spin-wave analysis. We propose that this scattering could originate from the spin-orbital coupled excitation. This scattering is most likely attributable to V spin-wave modes, entangled with the orbital hybridization between 
orbitals.

被引用回数：90 パーセンタイル：95.31(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The magnetic structure and magnetoelectric effect have been investigated for single crystals of the antiferromagnet CoNbO. Single-crystal neutron diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurement have revealed that the magnetic structure is different from a collinear arrangement with spin parallel to the trigonal axis as proposed previously. Co
magnetic moments are found to be almost lying in the basal plane, which lowers the magnetic symmetry to 
with the propagation vector 
= 0. Associated with the magnetic phase transition, a sharp anomaly in the dielectric constant and displacement current indicate the appearance of the magnetoelectric below Neel temperature TN with a large coupling constant up to 30 ps/m. The existence of off-diagonal components in a magnetoelectric tensor indicate the formation of ferrotoroidic order in CoNbO. Such a magnetoelectric effect can be ascribed to the reduction of symmetry caused by simple antiferromagnetic order in a honeycomb network.

states. In pyrochlore iridates 
IrO
(
: rare earth), some exotic electronic states are theoretically proposed by assuming states. However, the octahedral coordination around Ir is trigonally distorted, which may affect the energy level scheme of Ir 
states. Here, we report spectra of resonant elastic and inelastic X-ray scattering in EuIrO at the Ir 
edges. A large suppression of the magnetic scattering signal at the Ir 
edge supports the picture rather than the 
one. The inelastic scattering spectrum indicates that the magnitude of the trigonal field on the Ir states is evaluated to be comparable to the spin-orbit interaction. The energy diagram of the state is proposed based on the simple cluster model.

被引用回数：17 パーセンタイル：60.76(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)The phonon dynamics of spin-state crossover for perovskite LaCoO was investigated using infrared and inelastic X-ray spectroscopy. We observed that the Co-O bond stretching phonons couples to the thermally excited spin-state. The momentum dispersion of the optical mode is anomalously dispersionless (less than 3 meV), and this supports the spin-state disproportionation scenario. The steep enhancement of spin-state fluctuation compared to the charge gap suggests the density dependent spin state disproportionation; a simple low spin (LS)/high spin (HS)- or LS/intermediate spin (IS)-state disproportionation is realized at the initial stage with dilute HS- (or IS-) state density, while the complex spin-state disproportionation involving all of the LS-, IS- and HS-state is formed when the density of HS- (or IS-) state is enhanced.

One optical phonon rapidly softens toward zero frequency at room temperature with increasing

Below the antiferromagnetic-transition temperature, the soft mode hardens with decreasing temperature and then resoftens toward the lowest temperature.

spin and the 
moment of the ion. The results cannot be uniquely explained in terms of the exchange interaction between the V spin and the -ion moment. By comparing this phase diagram with the spin/orbital ordering in TbVO, it is evident that the critical competition between the C-type spin/G-type orbital ordered phase and the G-type spin/C-type orbital ordered one depends not only on the GdFeO-type lattice distortion but also on the presence of the moment of the ion. The magnetic field induced phase transition of the spin/orbital ordering is achieved concomitantly with polarizing moments for DyVO and HoVO. The results cannot be uniquely explained in terms of the exchange interaction between the V spin and the -ion moment. The coupling of the moment polarization with the lattice distortion tied with the orbital ordering of the V sublattice may also be relevant to this field induced phase transition.

The spin chirality in the
