Optimal design of nanomagnets for on-chip field gradients
William Legrand, Sandrine Lopes, Quentin Schaeverbeke +2
The generation of localized magnetic field gradients by on-chip nanomagnets is important for a variety of technological applications, in particular for spin qubits. To advance beyo…
Densely packed skyrmions stabilized at zero magnetic field by indirect exchange coupling in multilayers
Fernando Ajejas, Yanis Sassi, William Legrand +6
Room-temperature stabilization of skyrmions in magnetic multilayered systems is the result of a fine balance between different magnetic interactions namely symmetric and antisymmet…
Zero energy states clustering in an elemental nanowire coupled to a superconductor
L. C. Contamin, L. Jarjat, W. Legrand +3
Nanoelectronic hybrid devices combining superconductors and a one-dimensional nanowire are promising platforms to realize topological superconductivity and its resulting exotic exc…
Element-selective modulation of interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in Pt|Co|Metal based multilayers
Fernando Ajejas, Yanis Sassi, William Legrand +7
Despite a decade of research, the precise mechanisms occurring at interfaces underlying the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), and thus the possibility of fine-tuning it, are…
Chiral spin spiral in synthetic antiferromagnets probed by circular dichroism in x-ray resonant magnetic scattering
Cyril Léveillé, Samuel Flewett, Erick Burgos-Parra +6
Noncollinear chiral spin textures in ferromagnetic multilayers are at the forefront of recent research in nano-magnetism with the promise for fast and energy-efficient devices. The…
Staggered spin-orbit interaction in a nanoscale device
L. C. Contamin, T. Cubaynes, W. Legrand +9
The coupling of the spin and the motion of charge carriers stems directly from the atomic structure of a conductor. It has become an important ingredient for the emergence of topol…
