A centrosymmetric hexagonal magnet with superstable biskyrmion magnetic nanodomains in a wide temperature range of 100K to 340K
Wenhong Wang, Ying Zhang, Guizhou Xu +15
Here, we report on the experimental discovery of biskyrmion magnetic nanodomains at RT and the observation of a biskyrmion-derived topological Hall effect (THE) in the centrosymmet…
NMR Evidence for the Topologically Nontrivial Nature in a Family of Half-Heusler Compounds
Xiaoming Zhang, Zhipeng Hou, Yue Wang +7
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is expected to partly determine the topologically nontrivial electronic structure of heavy half-Heusler ternary compounds. However, to date, attempts to e…
New spin injection scheme based on spin gapless semiconductors: A first-principles study
G. Z. Xu, X. M. Zhang, Z. P. Hou +8
Spin injection efficiency based on conventional and/or half-metallic ferromagnet/semiconductor is greatly limited by the Schmidt obstacle due to conductivity mismatch, here we prop…
Unprecedentedly Wide Curie-Temperature Windows as Phase-Transition Design Platform for Tunable Magneto-Multifunctional Materials
Zhi-Yang Wei, En-Ke Liu, Yong Li +8
A series of unprecedentedly wide Curie-temperature windows (CTWs) between 40 and 450 K are realized by employing the isostructural alloying principle for the strongly coupled magne…
High Electron Mobility and Large Magnetoresistance in the Half-Heusler Semimetal LuPtBi

Spin gapless semiconductors are interesting novel class of materials by embracing both magnetism and semiconducting. Its potential application in future spintronics requires realiz…
Weak Antilocalization Effect and Noncentrosymmetric Superconductivity in a Topologically Nontrivial Semimetal LuPdBi
Guizhou Xu, Wenhong Wang, Xiaoming Zhang +6
A large number of half-Heusler compounds have been recently proposed as three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators (TIs) with tunable physical properties.However, no transport m…
NMR evidence for enhanced orbital diamagnetism in topologically nontrivial half-Heusler semimetals
Chenglong Shi, Xuekui Xi, Zhipeng Hou +6
209Bi nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was employed to probe potential spin-orbit effects on orbital diamagnetism in YPtBi and YPdBi crystals. The observed opposite si…
A new class of topological insulators from I-III-IV half-Heusler compounds with strong band inversion strength
