Quasi-1D Spin Textures: From Chiral Soliton Lattice to Fan State
M. Winter, A. Pignedoli, A. S. Sukhanov +18
In most helimagnets, an applied magnetic field aligns the propagation direction of a helical spin texture with the field, resulting in a conical state and obscuring the unwinding p…
Stabilizing Magnetic Bubble Domains in Epitaxial 2D Magnet/Topological Insulator Heterostructures through Interfacial Interactions
Thow Min Jerald Cham, Mowen Zhao, Wenyi Zhou +14
Epitaxial heterostructures of two-dimensional van der Waals magnets and topological insulators offer a powerful platform for probing interfacial spin interactions that govern magne…
Linear dichroic soft X-ray microscopy of ferroelectric stripe domains in epitaxial KNaNbO
M. Schneider, T. A. Butcher, S. Wagner +19
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…
X-ray imaging of antiferromagnetic octupole domains in MnSn
Max T. Birch, Sebastian Wintz, Yuhan Sun +4
Novel antiferromagnets with broken time reversal symmetry (TRS) have launched a new direction in spintronics research, combining the advantageous dynamical properties of convention…
Nanoscale Domain Wall Dynamics in Micromagnetic Structures with Weak Perpendicular Anisotropy
Tim A. Butcher, Nicholas W. Phillips, Abraham L. Levitan +4
Time-resolved pump-probe soft X-ray ptychography and Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy (STXM) were employed to study the magnetic domain wall dynamics in microstructures of pe…
