The results obtained suggest that, within the framework of the extrinsic mechanisms, the anomalous Hall current in a ferromagnet may also contain a substantial amount of dissipationless contribution independent of impurity scattering. After the contribution from the spin-orbit coupling induced by external electric fields is included, the total anomalous Hall conductivity is about two times larger than that due to soin-orbit dependent impurity scatterings.展开更多

However, the understanding of its microscopic origin remains challenging, which is critical for the development of magnetostriction materials. Here, the critical role of spin rotation in the giant magnetostriction of La(Fe,Al)_(13) is first revealed by the in-situ magnetic and temperature field of neutron powder diffraction. The giant magnetostriction originates from magnetic-field-driven spin moment rotation of canting structure, in which the sharp increase of ferromagnetic component causes the elongation of icosahedron inside of lattice. Furthermore, it is the first time to reveal the accurate canting antiferromagnetic structure in La(Fe,Al)_(13). The present study provides a new strategy, i.e., the spin rotation, for exploring new magnetostriction functional materials.展开更多

In particular, the ability to tune these intriguing effects paves a way to elucidate their fundamental physics and to develop novel electronic/magnetic devices. In this work, we report for the first time that a ferroelectric polarization screening at SrTiO_(3)/PbTiO_(3) interface is able to drive an electronic construction of Ti atom, giving rise to room-temperature ferromagnetism. Surprisingly, such ferromagnetism can be switched to antiferromagnetism by applying a magnetic field, which is reversible. A coupling of itinerant electrons with local moments at interfacial Ti3d orbital was proposed to explain the magnetism. The localization of the itinerant electrons under a magnetic field is responsible for the suppression of magnetism. These findings provide new insights into interfacial magnetism and their control by magnetic field relevant interfacial electrons promising for device applications.展开更多
