Imprinting spin patterns by local strain control in a van der Waals antiferromagnet

Zhuoliang Ni, Huiqin Zhang, Qi Tian +6

Van der Waals magnets provide opportunities for exploring low-dimensional magnetism and spintronic phenomena. The Mermin-Wagner theorem states that long-range correlations in reduc…

Magnetic field control of continuous Néel vector rotation and Néel temperature in a van der Waals antiferromagnet

Zhuoliang Ni, Urban Seifert, Amanda V. Haglund +4

In a collinear antiferromagnet, spins tend to cant towards the direction of an applied magnetic field, thereby decreasing the energy of the system. The canting angle becomes neglig…

Local spin structure in the layered van der Waals materials MnPSSe

Raju Baral, Amanda V. Haglund, Jue Liu +3

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, whether in bulk form or reduced to just a single layer, have potential applications in spintronics and capacity for advanced quantum phenome…

Signatures of Z Vestigial Potts-nematic order in van der Waals antiferromagnets

Zhuoliang Ni, Daniil S. Antonenko, W. Joe Meese +8

Layered van der Waals magnets have attracted much recent attention as a promising and versatile platform for exploring intrinsic two-dimensional magnetism. Within this broader clas…

Observation of giant surface second harmonic generation coupled to nematic orders in the van der Waals antiferromagnet FePS

Zhuoliang Ni, Nan Huang, Amanda V. Haglund +2

Second harmonic generation has been applied to study lattice, electronic and magnetic proprieties in atomically thin materials. However, inversion symmetry breaking is usually requ…

Direct imaging of antiferromagnetic domains and anomalous layer-dependent mirror symmetry breaking in atomically thin MnPS

Zhuoliang Ni, Huiqin Zhang, David Hopper +8

We have developed a sensitive cryogenic second-harmonic generation microscopy to study a van der Waals antiferromagnet MnPS. We find that long-range Néel antiferromagnetic orde…
