O. The rhombic lattice model is equivalent to a model of a square lattice with two different diagonal components, and competing exchange interactions potentially produce exotic quantum states. This compound is well characterized by the

H
O is identified as an incommensurate helical structure, characterized by a magnetic modulation propagation vector
= (0.1747(1) 0 0) with an in-plane moment rotating along the
axis. Moreover, a magnetic field-induced phase transition is observed at approximately 1 T. The application of a magnetic field suppresses spin ordering and enhance spin fluctuations. Our experimental results suggest the presence of a quantum phase in the magnetic phase diagram of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg rhombic lattice antiferromagnet with easy-plane anisotropy.

samples were synthesized under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction and Rietveld refinement results demonstrated that NiVO
underwent a continuous structural phase transition from the triclinic (

X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements confirmed that the Ni and V ions were divalent and tetravalent, respectively. Magnetic and specific heat measurements revealed that NiVO
underwent an antiferromagnetic transition at 140 K, and a zigzag-type magnetic order with magnetic propagation vector

In chiral molecule-incorporated 2D-OIHP copper halides, an increase in Br component over Cl component at halogen sites leads to systematic variations in magnetic phase diagrams owing to the competition between the FMI and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction induced by the SOC. The crucial role of noncentrosymmetry in the competition for the magnetic interactions was confirmed by comparing the magnetic phase diagrams of chiral and achiral 2D-OIHP copper bromides.

被引用回数:2 パーセンタイル:21.90(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)NHSCN exhibits successive phase transitions from monoclinic to orthorhombic, and then to tetragonal. The former phase transition is accompanied by an inverse colossal barocaloric effect and a huge negative thermal expansion. This transition is complicated by the possibly coexisting orientational disorder of NH
and SCN
, and the mechanism is still unclear. Here, NH
SCN is investigated using high-resolution neutron powder diffraction, pair distribution function analysis, and Raman scattering. Both the average and local structural analysis indicate that only NH
is orientationally disordered in the orthorhombic phase and SCN
becomes subsequently disordered in the tetragonal phase. Both temperature-induced and pressure-induced hardening behaviors of SCN
related vibrations are observed, which leads to the breakage of hydrogen bonds-linked NH
with SCN
and further facilitates phase transition. Our findings provide a solid standing point of atomic structures and dynamics, on which the scenario of the phase transition and the associated physical properties is established.

S
bulk single crystal, by measuring Hall resistance in constricted wire devices. The discretized steplike variations appear in the hysteresis loops of the Hall resistance in 0.6 micrometers wide and narrower devices, indicating that the size of the reversed magnetic domain is comparable to the active area of the Hall devices. By counting the number of discrete features, the average diameter of the reversed magnetic domain is estimated to be 80 nm. Individually, the diameter of the reversed domain nucleus is evaluated to be roughly 2 nm. Considering the difference in the diameters of the reversed magnetic domain and the reversed domain nucleus, we ascribed the large coercivity of the Co

S
thin films to a large nucleation field owing to the uniform crystallinity within grains and strong domain-wall pinning at grain boundaries specific to the thin films.

First, we consider conventional attenuation tomography of the two samples by integrating the signal for neutron wavelengths beyond the last Bragg edge, to analyze the bulk density properties of the material. Second, we obtain strain maps for each of the tomography projections by tracking the wavelength of the strongest Bragg edge corresponding to the {111} lattice plane family. It is found that not only the volume of the sample where the shock peening treatment was carried out yields a higher bulk density, but also a deep and remarkable compressive strain region.
