Linear dichroic soft X-ray microscopy of ferroelectric stripe domains in epitaxial KNaNbO

M. Schneider, T. A. Butcher, S. Wagner +20

Functional properties of ferroelectric thin films are governed by domains that can be engineered by epitaxial strain. Soft x-ray microscopy can image domain structures with element…

A fluctuation-free pathway for a topological magnetic phase transition

Riccardo Battistelli, Lukas Körber, Kai Litzius +27

Topological magnetic textures are particle-like spin configurations stabilized by competing interactions. Their formation is commonly attributed to fluctuation-driven, first-order…

Picosecond localization dynamics following ultrafast nanoscale magnetic switching

Daniel Metternich, Michael Schneider, Giuseppe Mercurio +28

Ultrashort laser pulses provide the fastest known way to switch magnetic order. Such excitation commonly creates nanometer-scale domains, even after homogeneous illumination when t…

Emergent Chaos-Like Dynamics of Spin-Orbit Torque-Driven Magnetic Transitions

Lisa-Marie Kern, Kai Litzius, Victor Deinhart +12

Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) are widely used to control magnetization in nanoscale electric systems and are typically assumed to drive skyrmion nucleation and motion in a deterministi…

Coherent x-ray magnetic imaging with 5 nm resolution

Riccardo Battistelli, Daniel Metternich, Michael Schneider +13

Soft x-ray microscopy plays an important role in modern spintronics. However, the achievable resolution of most x-ray magnetic imaging experiments is above 10 nm, limiting access t…

Robust scenario for the generation of non-equilibrium topological fluctuation states

Kathinka Gerlinger, Rein Liefferink, Michael Schneider +12

The recently discovered topological fluctuation state provides a fascinating new perspective on the ultrafast emergence of topology in condensed matter systems. However, rather lit…
