Conventional superconductivity in single-crystalline BiPt
S. Sharma, M. Pula, Sajilesh K. P. +10
Binary Bi-Pd/Pt systems have attracted a lot of interest because of their topologically non-trivial nature along with superconductivity. We report the structural and superconductin…
Structure and magnetism of MnGe thin films grown with a nonmagnetic CrSi template
B. D. MacNeil, J. S. R. McCoombs, D. Kalliecharan +7
We report a method to grow B20 MnGe thin films using molecular-beam epitaxy, which employs an ultrathin CrSi template layer on Si(111). This layer is expected to be nonmagnetic, in…
Two-Peak Heat Capacity Accounts for Entropy and Ground State Access in the Dipole-Octupole Pyrochlore CeHfO
E. M. Smith, A. Fitterman, R. Schäfer +18
Magnetic heat capacity measurements of a high-quality single crystal of the dipole-octupole pyrochlore CeHfO down to a temperature of K are reported. These s…
Ground-states of the Shastry-Sutherland Lattice Materials GdBeGeO and DyBeGeO
M. Pula, S. Sharma, J. Gautreau +3
The recent realization that the rare-earth melilites REBeGeO host the Shastry-Sutherland lattice within planes of RE ions has sparked a number of studies. This f…
Fractionalized Magnetization Plateaus in the Shastry-Sutherland Lattice Material ErBeGeO
M. Pula, S. Sharma, J. Gautreau +6
The experimental study of magnetism on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice has been ongoing for more than two decades, following the discovery of the first Shastry-Sutherland lattice ma…
