Robust perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in off-axis sputtered europium iron garnet (EuIG) thin films

We demonstrate a thin film ferrimagnet, 48-nm-thick (110)-oriented europium iron garnet, in which the easy plane is perpendicular to the film plane and the hard axis lies in the film plane. We describe the individual contributions to the magnetic anisotropy and the tuning parameters that enable the easy-plane anisotropy landscape to be engineered. The anisotropy landscape is characterized using spin-Hall magnetoresistance measurements. The cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy, often neglected for iron garnets, is shown to influence the magnetization reversal within the easy plane. 

Engineering an easy-plane anisotropy in an epitaxial europium iron garnet (110) film

Magnetic iron garnet films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are highly desirable for spintronics and magnonics applications. In this study, we have grown single-phase epitaxial ${\mathrm{Bi}}_{3}{\mathrm{Fe}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ films on a ${\mathrm{Gd}}_{3}{\mathrm{Ga}}_{5}{\mathrm{O}}_{12}$ substrate with (111) orientation. The nondestructive ${sin}^{2}\ensuremath{\psi}$ technique of the x-ray diffraction measurement demonstrates the negative value of residual stress, suggesting the compressive nature of stress in the system. Ferromagnetic resonance and magnetic force microscopy (MFM) have been used to probe the magnetic anisotropies and magnetic domain texture, respectively. In-plane (IP) angular variation of the resonance field ${H}_{r}$ reveals a weak IP magnetic anisotropy with pronounced sixfold and fourfold symmetries in 15 and 10 nm thick films, respectively. For the 15 nm thick film, the out-of-plane angular variation of ${H}_{r}$ shows oblique magnetic anisotropy with the magnetic easy axis making an angle of ${25}^{\ensuremath{\circ}}$ with respect to the film plane. The oblique magnetic easy axis is further confirmed with $\ensuremath{\theta}$ mapping of the MFM image. However, for the 10 nm thick film there is complete reorientation of the magnetic easy axis perpendicular to the film plane. The cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy along with the magnetoelastic anisotropy overcomes the shape anisotropy and leads to negative effective magnetic anisotropy ${K}_{\mathrm{eff}}$ and PMA. MFM images show a labyrinthine mazelike domain texture, typical of iron garnet films with PMA.

The topological Hall effect (THE) is a Hall response that arises from the deflection of motion of charge carriers flowing through nontrivial spin textures. Here, the authors observe a significant THE and investigate its interplay with the spin-polarized topological surface states in a proximity-magnetized topological insulator/ferrimagnet heterostructure. Specifically, they demonstrate a sign change in THE via a top electrical gate as the Fermi level is tuned from the electron-doped to the hole-doped region of the gapped Dirac cone.

The auxetic effect in two-dimensional (2D) materials can not only enhance their mechanical properties but also brings additional tunability of their physical properties. Here, we employ density-functional-theory calculations to report on a class of auxetic 2D magnets, namely, the squarely packed transition metal dichlorides MCl2 (M = Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni). These magnets are dynamically stable and exhibit an intrinsic in-plane auxetic effect. Meanwhile, the transition metal disulfides MS2 (M = V, Cr, Mn) with the same crystal structure exhibit a positive Poisson's ratio. This indicates that the auxetic effect in MCl2 is not merely dominated by the crystal structure. We attribute the occurrence of such auxetic behavior to the weak bond stiffness governed by electronic coupling between nearest-neighboring atoms. We find that magnetic ordering of 2D magnets with an auxetic effect is robust under external strain due to the protection of super-exchange interaction coming from the auxetic effect. Super-exchange interaction is sensitive to the symmetry of the crystal structure while the auxetic effect can mitigate the variation of such symmetry. The abundant magnetic properties in combination with the auxetic effect exhibit potential for novel nanodevice applications.

Single-crystal epitaxial europium iron garnet films with strain-induced perpendicular magnetic anisotropy: Structural, strain, magnetic, and spin transport properties

The identification of distinct charge transport features, deriving from nontrivial bulk band and surface states, has been a challenging subject in the field of topological systems. In topological Dirac and Weyl semimetals, nontrivial conical bands with Fermi-arc surfaces states give rise to negative longitudinal magnetoresistance due to chiral anomaly effect and unusual thickness dependent quantum oscillation from Weyl-orbit effect, which were demonstrated recently in experiments. In this work, we report the experimental observations of large nonlinear and nonreciprocal transport effects for both longitudinal and transverse channels in an untwinned Weyl metal of SrRuO$_3$ thin film grown on a SrTiO$_{3}$ substrate. From rigorous measurements with bias current applied along various directions with respect to the crystalline principal axes, the magnitude of nonlinear Hall signals from the transverse channel exhibits a simple sin$\alpha$ dependent at low temperatures, where $\alpha$ is the angle between bias current direction and orthorhombic [001]$_{\rm o}$, reaching a maximum when current is along orthorhombic [1-10]$_{\rm o}$. On the contrary, the magnitude of nonlinear and nonreciprocal signals in the longitudinal channel attains a maximum for bias current along [001]$_{\rm o}$, and it vanishes for bias current along [1-10]$_{\rm o}$. The observed $\alpha$-dependent nonlinear and nonreciprocal signals in longitudinal and transverse channels reveal a magnetic Weyl phase with an effective Berry curvature dipole along [1-10]$_{\rm o}$ from surface states, accompanied by 1D chiral edge modes along [001]$_{\rm o}$.
