The temperature-gradient-induced Hall-like response has been reported in chiral tellurium; however, whether it originates from a static magnetization remains unclear. Here, we perform zero-field muon spin rotation (
SR) measurements on single-crystalline Te under a temperature gradient. No muon spin precession or static relaxation is observed. From the experimental sensitivity and dipolar-field estimates based on calculated muon stopping sites, we place an upper limit of 0.05 mT on the local magnetic field, corresponding to a magnetic moment smaller than 
per Te atom. These results rule out bulk static magnetization induced by temperature gradient as the origin of the Hall-like response.

被引用回数：2 パーセンタイル：78.36(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We study a thin-film yttrium iron garnet sample that exhibits magnetic stripe domains due to a small perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Using wide-field magneto-optic Kerr effect measurements we reveal the domain pattern evolution as a function of applied field and discuss the role of cubic anisotropy in the domain formation. Rich magnon spectra are observed in the stripe domain states, with a range of excitation conditions providing distinct spectra. The measurements are interpreted using micromagnetic simulations to provide the spatial profiles of each resonance mode. We further simulate domain patterns and resonance spectra accounting for the cubic anisotropy, with good correlation to experiment. This study highlights how noncollinear magnetic domain structures can host complex resonant behavior in a low-damping magnetic material, with potential use in future magnonic applications.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Physics, Applied)The unidirectional spontaneous rotation of particles caused by Brownian motion rectified by the Coriolis force is reported. Fine magnetic particles dispersed in a revolving liquid were observed using the Barnett effect, and we found that the particles rotated much faster than the liquid. The observed spontaneous extra rotation is attributed to the breaking of the time-reversal symmetry of the Coriolis force, which rectified the random Brownian motion affected by viscosity. Our model considering molecular fluctuations in the medium reproduced the experiments well. The present results also suggest that all objects floating in fluids on Earth rotate spontaneously because of fluctuations.

In a longitudinal setup, the transverse thermoelectric voltage (

) at 220 K, driven by a thermally induced spin current via the inverse spin Hall effect. Raman spectroscopy reveals a coincident G-band redshift peak, suggesting a phonon-spin resonance unique to MCF's hybrid structure. X-ray absorption spectra confirm stable sp
states, potentially mediating this effect. A multiple-sample study in addition reveals that smaller crystallites enhance SDSE. Unlike pristine graphene or insulators, MCF's weak ferromagnetism and phonon dynamics yield an unconventional spin-thermal regime. This finding redefines carbon's role in spin caloritronics, with tunable nano-crystallite size as a design parameter.

Hybridized nuclear and electron spin excitation in a MnCO crystal, a weakly anisotropic antiferromagnet, has been investigated. In this material, the hyperfine interaction is strong enough to form a nuclear spin wave. We measure the microwave absorption induced by magnetic resonance in a bulk MnCO and observe the dispersion representing strong frequency repulsion between electron and nuclear modes due to their hybridization, the signature of nuclear spin wave. Additionally, we observe that the nuclear spin resonance enters a nonlinear regime above a certain excitation power, attributed to the excitation of finite-wavenumber nuclear spin waves.

被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：68.00(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Femtosecond laser excitation of nanometer thin heterostructures comprising a heavy metal and a magnetically ordered material is known to result in the emission of terahertz radiation. However, the nature of the emitted radiation from heavy metal/antiferromagnet heterostructures has sparked debates and controversies in the literature. Here, we unambiguously separate spin and charge contributions from Pt/NiO heterostructures by introducing an unprecedented methodology combining high external magnetic fields with a symmetry analysis of the emitted terahertz polarization. We observe two distinct mechanisms of terahertz emission, which we identify as optical difference frequency generation and ultrafast laser-induced quenching of the magnetization. We emphasize the absence of spin transport effects and signatures of coherent magnons. Overall, our Letter provides a general experimental methodology to separate spin and charge contributions to the laser-induced terahertz emission from heterostructures comprising a magnetically ordered material, thus holding great potential for advancing terahertz spintronics and establishing terahertz orbitronics.

On the basis of the Floquet formalism, we identify the emergence of the extra two-level state due to the temporal periodicity generated by the mechanical rotation (mechanical spin multiplexing) and derive an operator algebra analogous to the planar rotor algebra in an effective description of the system. The observed multiplexing allows a single spin 1/2 to carry more than two states and potentially enabling the processing of multiple quantum bits on a single spin.

Novel nontrivial phenomena have been demonstrated in twisted vdW junctions (the so-called magic angle), such as unconventional superconductivity, topological phases, and magnetism.

Nevertheless, these vdW homojunctions exhibit tunnel-magnetoresistance (TMR) like behavior (pseudo-TMR (PTMR) effect) with the ratios highly sensitive to the values, revealing that the vdW gap at the junction interface between the twisted FGT layers behaves like a tunnel barrier and the serves a control parameter for PTMR by drastically varying magnitudes of the lattice-mismatch and the subsequent appearance of antiferromagnetic (AFM) spin alignment. First-principles calculations considering vacuum gaps indicate strong dependence of TMR on the driven by the sixfold screw rotational symmetry of bulk FGT. The present homojunctions hold promise as a platform for novel AFM spin-dependent phenomena and spintronic applications.

The stress and plastic strain of retained austenite and volume fraction of retained austenite were remarkably changed during Luders deformation in the medium Mn steel, implying that the medium Mn steel possessed inhomogeneous deformation at the parallel part of the tensile specimen. On the other hand, the distributions of the stress, plastic strain and volume fraction of retained austenite were homogeneous and the homogeneous deformation occurred at the parallel part of the tensile specimen at the plastic deformation regime with work hardening in the medium Mn and TBF steels. The martensitic transformation of retained austenite at uders deformation in the medium Mn steel was possessed owing to the application of high stress and preferential deformation at retained austenite, resulting in a significant increase in the plastic deformation and reduction of stress in the retained austenite. The martensitic transformation of retained austenite at the plastic deformation regime with work hardening was induced by the high dislocation density and newly applied plastic deformation in retained austenite in the medium Mn steel whereas the TBF steel possessed gradual transformation of retained austenite which is applied high tensile stress and moderate plastic deformation.

被引用回数：4 パーセンタイル：31.25(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)Atom-vacancy-defects present in various materials yield numerous interesting physical phenomena, even obstructing high performance in some cases. On the other hand, their valuable applications to novel devices, such as nitrogen vacancy centers in diamond for quantum bits, have gathered significant attention. In particular, these tendencies become more substantial in two-dimensional (2D) (atomically) thin van der Waals layers. However, correlations with various kinds of atom defects are still under exploration. Herein, we find the stochastic behaviors of large hysteresis loops with strong photoresponse in the static electrical properties in few-atom layer semiconductors, molybdenum disulfide (MoS). The temperature dependence and transmission electron microscopy reveal that they arise from pairs of two neighboring in-plane S-vacancy defects, which predominantly present only around the interface at the MoS flake/substrate, with activation energies similar to 0.35 eV. The low-frequency (
) (LF) noise measurements clarify a high f shift in the two 1/ 2-dependent regimes, implying stochastic behaviors of electric charges through the S-vacancy pairs with high-speed charge(spin) transitions across low kinetic energy barriers between narrow discrete states. The shallow energy sates are formed from the highly uniform S-vacancy pairs interacting with Mo atoms, which act like quantum dots. The observed stochastic operation holds promise for various application, particularly for probabilistic neuromorphic computation in artificial intelligence.

被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：30.11(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)The growth of two-dimensional van der Waals magnetic materials presents attractive opportunities for exploring new physical phenomena and valuable applications. Among these materials, FeGeTe (FGT) exhibits a variety of remarkable properties and has garnered significant attention. Herein, we have for the first time created a nanomesh structure-a honeycomb-like array of hexagonal nanopores-with the zigzag pore-edge atomic structure on thin FGT flakes with and without oxidation of the pore edges. It is revealed that the magnitude of ferromagnetism (FM) significantly increases in both samples compared with bulk flakes without nanomeshes. Critical temperature annealing results in the formation of zigzag pore edges and interpore zigzag-edge nanoribbons. We unveil that the non-oxide (O) termination of the Fe dangling bonds on these zigzag edges enhances FM behavior, while O-termination suppresses this FM by introducing antiferromagnetic behavior through edge O-Fe coupling. FGT nanomeshes hold promise for the creation of strong FM and their effective application in magnetic and spintronic systems.

When the power of an applied microwave field is increased above a threshold under ferromagnetic resonance, spin waves with finite wave numbers are excited via fourmagnon scattering, leading to standing spin waves in real space. We calculate the Spin-motive force induced by the spin waves with finite wave numbers in a permalloy strip and estimate the electric voltage due to the Spin-motive force. We demonstrate the increase of electric voltage as a result of steep magnetization modulation of the nonlinearly excited spin waves and the nonlinear spin waves produced.

被引用回数：3 パーセンタイル：30.11(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)SrTiO (STO) substrate, a perovskite oxide material known for its high dielectric constant (epsilon), facilitates the observation of various (high-temperature) quantum phenomena. A quantum Hall topological insulating (QHTI) state, comprising two copies of QH states with antiparallel two ferromagnetic edge-spin overlap protected by the U(1) axial rotation symmetry of spin polarization, has recently been achieved in low magnetic field (B) even as high as approximate to 100 K in a monolayer graphene/thin hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) spacer placed on an STO substrate, thanks to the high epsilon of STO. Despite the use of the heavy STO substrate, however, proximity-induced quantum spin Hall (QSH) states in 2D TI phases, featuring a topologically protected helical edge spin phase within time-reversal-symmetry, is not confirmed. Here, with the use of a monolayer hBN spacer, it is revealed the coexistence of QSH (at B = 0T) and QHTI (at B not equal 0) states in the same single graphene sample placed on an STO, with a crossover regime between the two at low B. It is also classified that the different symmetries of the two nontrivial helical edge spin phases in the two states lead to different interaction with electron-puddle quantum dots, caused by a local surface pocket of the STO, in the crossover regime, resulting in a spin dephasing only for the QHTI state. The results obtained using STO substrates open the doors to investigations of novel QH spin states with different symmetries and their correlations with quantum phenomena. This exploration holds value for potential applications in spintronic devices.

被引用回数：26 パーセンタイル：91.10(Chemistry, Physical)When excited, a magnetization in a magnet precesses around the field in an anticlockwise manner on a time scale governed by viscous magnetization damping, after which any information carried by the initial actuation seems to be lost. The damping appears to be a fundamental bottleneck for the use of magnets in information processing. Nevertheless, here we demonstrate recall of the magnetization-precession phase after times that far exceed the damping time scale by two orders of magnitude using dedicated two-colour microwave pump-and-probe experiments for a YFe
O microstructured film. Time- resolved magnetization state tomography confirms the magnetic persistent coherence (MPC) by revealing a double-exponential decay of the magnetization correlation. We attribute MPC to a feedback effect, viz. coherent coupling of the uniform precession with long-lived excitations at the minima of the spin-wave dispersion relation. Our finding liberates magnetic systems from the strong damping in nanostructures tyranny that limits their use in coherent information storage and processing.

However, the short decoherence and dephasing times that determine the scale and speed of information networks severely limit the appeal of employing the ferromagnetic resonance.

Analytical and numerical calculations based on this model explain recent experimental results and predict experimental signatures of quantum coherence.

Their temperature dependencies and the direction of the precession motion of magnetic moments, i.e., magnon polarization, defined using polarized neutrons, explain the reversal at and decay of the spin-Seebeck signals at low temperatures. We illustrate an example that momentum- and energy-resolved microscopic information is a prerequisite to understand the magnon spin current.
