We theoretically find a topological spin-orbit torque (SOT) in the compensated ferrimagnetic Weyl semimetal Ti
MnAl. The topological SOT arises from all the occupied states, which is free from dissipation. However, it is negligible in metallic magnets and was not reported in Weyl semimetals. We show the enhancement of the topological SOT from the mixed Berry curvature around the Weyl points in TiMnAl. This finding provides a guiding principle for designing highly efficient SOT devices using the topological nature of ferrimagnetic Weyl semimetals.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Spin-orbit torque (SOT) provides a promising mechanism for electrically encoding information in magnetic states. Unlike existing schemes, where the SOT is passively determined by the material and device structures, an active manipulation of the intrinsic SOT polarity would allow for flexibly programmable SOT devices. Achieving this requires electrical control of the current-induced spin polarization of the spin source. Here we demonstrate a proof-of-concept current-programmed SOT device. Using a noncollinear-anti-ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic/ferromagnetic Mn
Sn/Mo/CoFeB hetero-structure at zero magnetic eld, we show current-induced switching in the CoFeB layer due to the spin current polarized by the magnetic structure of the MnSn; by properly tuning the driving current, the spin current from the CoFeB further reverses the magnetic orientation of the MnSn, which determines the polarity of the subsequent switching of the CoFeB. This scheme of mutual switching can be achieved in a spin-valve-like simple protocol because each magnetic layer serves as a reversible spin source and target magnetic electrode. It yields intriguing proof-of-concept functionalities for unconventional logic and neuromorphic computing.

被引用回数：1 パーセンタイル：0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We reported the magnetic behavior of a rhombic lattice quantum antiferromagnet KCoPOHO. 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 
= 1/2 state. The magnetic structure of KCoPOHO 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.

被引用回数：0Spin Berry curvature characterizes the band topology as the spin counterpart of Berry curvature and is crucial in generating novel spintronics functionalities. By breaking the crystalline inversion symmetry, the spin Berry curvature is expected to be significantly enhanced; this enhancement will increase the intrinsic spin Hall effect in ferromagnetic materials and, thus, the spin-orbit torques (SOTs). However, this intriguing approach is not applied to devices; generally, the spin Hall effect in ferromagnet/heavy-metal bilayer is used for SOT magnetization switching. Here, SOT-induced partial magnetization switching is demonstrated in a single layer of a single-crystalline Weyl oxide SrRuO
(SRO) with a small current density of 
. Detailed analysis of the crystal structure in the seemingly perfect periodic lattice of the SRO film reveals barely discernible oxygen octahedral rotations with angles of 
near the interface with a substrate. Tight-binding calculations indicate that a large spin Hall conductivity is induced around small gaps generated at band crossings by the synergy of inherent spin-orbit coupling and band inversion due to the rotations, causing magnetization reversal. The results indicate that a minute atomic displacement in single-crystal films can induce strong intrinsic SOTs that are useful for spin-orbitronics devices.

被引用回数：0 パーセンタイル：0.00(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We study the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) appearing at the interface of a nonmagnetic/noncollinear-antiferromagnetic bilayer. The DMI is an antisymmetric exchange interaction between neighboring magnetic spins, arising in the absence of an inversion center between the spins, the explicit expression of which is dictated by system symmetry. We formulate the interfacial DMI for different crystalline orientations of the noncollinear antiferromagnet with a stacked-kagome lattice structure. From this formulation, we show that, when the kagome planes are perpendicular to the sample film plane, the DMI serves as a uniaxial magnetic anisotropy for the antiferromagnetic order parameter. Our findings reveal an important physical manifestation of a DMI, shedding light on microscopic mechanisms of the magnetic anisotropy in noncollinear antiferromagnets.

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.

We show that two stable solutions appear in a certain range of parameters by bifurcation when the rotation frequency is comparable to the microwave frequency. This phenomenon originates from the coexistence of the Barnett and the Einstein-de Haas effects. We also reveal that this measurement is sensitive to the strength of the spin-rotation coupling. Our work provides a platform for accessing a microscopic relaxation process from spin to macroscopic rotation.

We reveal the drastic breakdown of the magnonic Wiedemann-Franz law as a hallmark of the hydrodynamics regime, which will become key evidence for the experimental realization of an emergent hydrodynamic magnon behavior. Therefore, our results pave the way toward the direct observation of magnon fluids.

被引用回数：30 パーセンタイル：93.24(Multidisciplinary Sciences)Although considerable progress has been made in the theoretical understanding of the low-dimensional frustrated quantum magnets, experimental realizations of a well-established scaling analysis are still scarce. This is particularly true for the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic triangular lattices. Owing to the small exchange strength, the newly discovered compound NaBaCo(PO) provides a rare opportunity for clarifying the quantum criticality in an ideal triangular lattice with quantum spin S=1/2. In addition to the establishment of the complete phase diagrams, the spin Hamiltonian with a negligible interplane interaction has been determined through the spin wave dispersion in the polarized state, which is consistent with the observation of a two-dimensional quantum critical point with the Bose-Einstein condensation of diluted free bosons.

thin films using magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) and compare it with the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) measurement. We obtain a large Kerr rotation angle of 10 mdeg., comparable with bulk single-crystal MnSn. The composition 
dependence of AHE and MOKE shows a similar trend, suggesting the same origin, i.e., the non-vanishing Berry curvature in the momentum space. Magnetic domain observation at the saturated state shows that x dependence of AHE and MOKE is explained by an amount of reversible area that crucially depends on the crystalline structure of the film. Furthermore, in-depth observation of the reversal process reveals that the reversal starts with nucleation of sub-micrometer-scale domains dispersed in the film, followed by a domain expansion, where the domain wall preferentially propagates along the ![$$[11bar{2}0]$$](/search/images/ERNTCMK2MJQXE4ZSPUYF0JA.gif)

The EXAFS oscillations at the Mn L edges are analyzed to obtain parameters used in the analysis of the magnetic EXAFS (MEXAFS). Theoretical calculations of MEXAFS spectra in CoMnSi show that the linear-path scatterings have larger contributions than the multiple triangular-path scatterings. Furthermore, the period of the oscillations in the MEXAFS spectra is shorter than that in the EXAFS spectra indicating that the far site contributions from the second to the fourth nearest neighbor Co and the third nearest Si atoms can strongly influence the MEXAFS oscillations, while the Mn atoms, despite the large magnetic moment, can have little contributions due to the interference of the spin components.

We find a highly localized and asymmetric magnetic sensitivity in the eight-terminal geometries that are frequently used in current-induced switching experiments, for instance, to probe antiferromagnetic materials. Using current-induced switching of antiferromagnetic NiO/Pt as an example, we estimate the change in the spin Hall magnetoresistance signal associated with switching events based on the domain-switching patterns observed via direct imaging. This estimate correlates with the actual electrical data after subtraction of a nonmagnetic contribution. Here, the consistency of the correlation across three measurement geometries with fundamentally different switching patterns strongly indicates a magnetic origin of the measured and analyzed electrical signals.
