Demonstrating magnetic memory in iron-rhodium structures using a quantum diamond microscope

Kristine V. Ung, Gregory M. Stephen, Nicholas A. Blumenschein +7

Iron-rhodium (FeRh) has a first-order phase transition near room temperature between antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) phases, making it a promising material for magne…

Conductivity scaling of the anomalous Hall effect in the altermagnetic semiconductor α-MnTe

Sara Bey, Shelby S. Fields, Nicholas G. Combs +22

α-MnTe is a prototypical altermagnet exhibiting a strong anomalous Hall effect (AHE), despite having a nearly vanishing magnetization. Lately, sample-to-sample variations of the a…

Effects of altermagnetic order, strain and doping in RuO

Darshana Wickramaratne, Marc Currie, Shelby S. Fields +2

RuO, one of the most widely studied transition metal oxides, was recently predicted to host a novel form of collinear magnetic order referred to as altermagnetism. In this stud…
