Diamagnetic-like response from localised heating of a paramagnetic material

Abstract
In the search of material properties out-of-equilibrium, the non-equilibrium steady states induced by electric current are an appealing research direction where unconventional states may emerge. However, the unavoidable Joule heating caused by flowing current calls for the development of new measurement protocols, with a particular attention to the physical properties of the background materials involved. Here, we demonstrate that localised heating can give rise to a large, spurious diamagnetic-like signal. This occurs due to the local reduction of the background magnetisation caused by the heated sample, provided that the background material has a Curie-like susceptibility. Our experimental results, along with numerical calculations, constitute an important building block for performing accurate magnetic measurements under the flow of electric current.
