Vortex pinning of BaKBiO investigated by magneto-optical Kerr-effect and magnetization measurements
Soichiro Yamane, Sota Nakamura, Atsutoshi Ikeda +8
Vortex pinning plays a crucial role in determining properties of type-II superconductors. For example, it governs the irreversible magnetic response as well as dissipation caused b…
Magneto-optical imaging of macroscopic altermagnetic domains in MnTe
Gakuto Watanabe, Soichiro Yamane, Ryotaro Maki +6
Altermagnets are a new class of magnets accompanying global time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) without net magnetization. The TRSB results in formation of novel altermagnetic d…
Magneto-optical Kerr effect measurements under bipolar pulsed magnetic fields
Soichiro Yamane, Sota Nakamura, Atsutoshi Ikeda +3
The magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE) is a powerful probe of magnetism. Its contact-free optical nature makes it potentially well suitable for measurements under pulsed magnetic f…
Magneto-optical Kerr-effect measurements under pulsed magnetic fields over 40 T using a compact sample fixture
Atsutoshi Ikeda, Sota Nakamura, Soichiro Yamane +3
The magnetic field is one of the most fundamental control parameters in materials science. A pulsed magnetic-field apparatus can generate high magnetic fields that are inaccessible…
Born-limit scattering and pair-breaking crossover in d-wave superconductivity of (TMTSF)2ClO4
Shota Yano, Kazumi Fukushima, Katsuki Kinjo +8
In the quasi-one-dimensional organic unconventional superconductor (TMTSF)2ClO4, the randomness of the non-centrosymmetric ClO4 anions can be experimentally controlled by adjusting…
Structural Evolution from Hyper-Honeycomb to Honeycomb Networks and Superconductivity in LaPtSi
Sitaram Ramakrishnan, Tatsuya Yamakawa, Ryohei Oishi +11
We report the crystal structures and superconductivity (SC) of LaPtSi () that are solid solutions of LaSi and LaPtSi with centrosymmetric t…
