Imaginary crystals made real

Simone Taioli, Ruggero Gabbrielli, Stefano Simonucci +2

We realize Lobachevsky geometry in a simulation lab, by producing a carbon-based mechanically stable molecular structure, arranged in the shape of a Beltrami pseudosphere. We find…

Generation of high-frequency strain waves during femtosecond demagnetization of Fe/MgO films

T. Henighan, M. Trigo, S. Bonetti +22

We use femtosecond time-resolved hard x-ray scattering to detect coherent acoustic phonons excited during ultrafast laser demagnetization of bcc Fe films. We determine the lattice…

Optical investigation of magneto-structural phase transition in FeRh

V. Saidl, M. Brajer, L. Horak +9

Magneto-structural phase transition in FeRh epitaxial layers was studied optically. It is shown that the transition between the low-temperature antiferromagnetic phase and the high…

Multiple-stable anisotropic magnetoresistance memory in antiferromagnetic MnTe

D. Kriegner, K. Vyborny, K. Olejnik +10

A common perception assumes that magnetic memories require ferromagnetic materials with a non-zero net magnetic moment. However, it has been recently proposed that compensated anti…

Ab initio investigation of light-induced relativistic spin-flip effects in magneto-optics

Ritwik Mondal, Marco Berritta, Karel Carva +1

Excitation of a metallic ferromagnet such as Ni with an intensive femtosecond laser pulse causes an ultrafast demagnetization within approximately 300 fs. It was proposed that the…

Giant reversible nanoscale piezoresistance at room temperature in Sr2IrO4 thin films

Neus Domingo, Laura López-Mir, Marcos Paradinas +10

Layered iridates have been the subject of intense scrutiny on account of their unusually strong spin-orbit coupling, which opens up a narrow gap in a material that would otherwise…

Powder diffraction in Bragg-Brentano geometry with straight linear detectors

Dominik Kriegner, Zdenek Matej, Radomir Kuzel +1

A common way of speeding up powder diffraction measurements is the use of one or two dimensional detectors. This usually goes along with worse resolution and asymmetric peak profil…
