Lei Pan, Alexander Grutter, Peng Zhang, Xiaoyu Che, Tomohiro Nozaki, Alex Stern, Mike Street, Bing Zhang, Brian Casas, Qing L. He, Eun S. Choi, Steven M. Disseler, Dustin Gilbert, Gen Yin, Qiming Shao, Peng Deng, Yingying Wu, Xiaoyang Liu, Xufeng Kou, Sahashi Masashi, Xiaodong Han, Christian Binek, Scott Chambers, Jing Xia, Kang L. Wang
Integration of a quantum anomalous Hall insulator with a magnetically ordered material provides an additional degree of freedom through which we may control the resulting exotic quantum states. Here, we report an experimental observation of the quantum

Termination Switching of Antiferromagnetic Proximity Effect in Topological Insulator

August 12, 2020

Chao-Yao Yang, Lei Pan, Alexander Grutter, Haiying Wang, Xiaoyu Che, Qing L. He, Yingying Wu, Dustin A. Gilbert, Padraic Shafer, Elke Arenholz, Hao Wu, Gen Yin, Peng Deng, Julie Borchers, William D. Ratcliff, Kang L. Wang
The magnetic proximity effect (MPE) allows exchange-coupling of topological insulators (TIs) with magnetically ordered materials to break time-reversal-symmetry and open a gap in the Dirac-cone surface state, with the goal of realizing quantum anomalous

Magnetoelectric (ME) coupling in La 0.7Sr 0.3MnO 3/Pb(Mg 1/3Nb 2/3)d0.7^Ti 0.3O 3 (LSMO/PMN-PT (001)) has been probed in the past years to identify the underlying mechanism behind it. PMN-PT, which is well known for its excellent piezoelectric properties

Manipulation of Coupling and Magnon Transport in Magnetic Metal-Insulator Hybrid Structures

June 15, 2020

Yabin Fan, Patrick Quarterman, Joseph Finley, Jiahao Han, Pengxiang Zhang, Justin T. Hou, Mark D. Stiles, Alexander Grutter, Luqiao Liu
Ferromagnetic metals and insulators are widely used for generation, control and detection of magnon spin signals. Most magnonic structures are based primarily on either magnetic insulators or ferromagnetic metals, while heterostructures integrating both of

Correlation-Driven Eightfold Magnetic Anisotropy in a Two-Dimensional Oxide Monolayer

April 10, 2020

Zhangzhang Cui, Alexander Grutter, Hua Zhou, Hui Cao, Yongqi Dong, Dustin A. Gilbert, Jingyuan Wang, Yi-Sheng Liu, Jiaji Ma, Zhenpeng Hu, Jinghua Guo, Jing Xia, Brian Kirby, Padraic Shafer, Elke Arenholz, Hanghui Chen, Xiaofang Zhai, Yalin Lu
Engineering magnetic anisotropy (MA) in two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic materials has enormous scientific and technological implications. The uniaxial anisotropy universally exhibited by 2D ferromagnetic materials has only two stable spin directions

Strain-Induced Majority Carrier Inversion in Ferromagnetic Epitaxial LaCoO^d3-d Thin Films
