Positive exchange-bias and giant vertical hysteretic shift in La0.3Sr0.7FeO3/SrRuO3 bilayers.

ABSTRACT: The exchange-bias effects in the mosaic epitaxial bilayers of the itinerant ferromagnet (FM) SrRuO3 and the antiferromagnetic (AFM) charge-ordered La(0.3)Sr(0.7)FeO3 were investigated. An uncharacteristic low-field positive exchange bias, a cooling-field driven reversal of positive to negative exchange-bias and a layer thickness optimised unusual vertical magnetization shift were all novel facets of exchange bias realized for the first time in magnetic oxides. The successive magnetic training induces a transition from positive to negative exchange bias regime with changes in domain configurations. These observations are well corroborated by the hysteretic loop asymmetries which display the modifications in the AFM spin correlations. These exotic features emphasize the key role of i) mosaic disorder induced subtle interplay of competing AFM-superexchange and FM double exchange at the exchange biased interface and, ii) training induced irrecoverable alterations in the AFM spin structure.

Cooling field and temperature dependent exchange bias in spin glass/ferromagnet bilayers.

Project description:We report on the experimental and theoretical studies of cooling field (HFC) and temperature (T) dependent exchange bias (EB) in FexAu1-x/Fe19Ni81 spin glass (SG)/ferromagnet (FM) bilayers. When x varies from 8% to 14% in the FexAu1-x SG alloys, with increasing T, a sign-changeable exchange bias field (HE) together with a unimodal distribution of coercivity (HC) are observed. Significantly, increasing in the magnitude of HFC reduces (increases) the value of HE in the negative (positive) region, resulting in the entire HE∼T curve to move leftwards and upwards. In the meanwhile, HFC variation has weak effects on HC. By Monte Carlo simulation using a SG/FM vector model, we are able to reproduce such HE dependences on T and HFC for the SG/FM system. Thus this work reveals that the SG/FM bilayer system containing intimately coupled interface, instead of a single SG layer, is responsible for the novel EB properties.

Giant Vertical Magnetization Shift Caused by Field-Induced Ferromagnetic Spin Reconfiguration in Ni50Mn36Ga14 Alloy.

Project description:Vertical magnetization shift (VMS) is a special type of exchange bias effect that may lead to a revolution in future ultrahigh-density magnetic recording technology. However, there are very few reports focusing on the performance of VMS due to the unclear mechanism. In this paper, a giant vertical magnetization shift (ME) of 6.34 emu/g is reported in the Ni50Mn36Ga14 alloy. The VMS can be attributed to small ferromagnetic ordered regions formed by spin reconfiguration after field cooling, which are embedded in an antiferromagnetic matrix. The strong cooling-field dependence, temperature dependence, and training effect all corroborate the presence of spin reconfiguration and its role in the VMS. This work can enrich VMS research and increase its potential in practical applications as well.

Exchange bias in ferromagnetic bilayers with orthogonal anisotropies: the case of GaMnAsP/GaMnAs combination.

Project description:We report the observation of exchange bias in a ferromagnetic Ga0.94Mn0.06As0.77P0.23/ Ga0.94Mn0.06As bilayer, in which the easy axis in one layer is oriented out-of-plane, and in the other in-plane. Magnetization reversal in this system is explored using planar Hall effect (PHE) measurements under various initial conditions and with various field-cooling orientations. Our results show that the two magnetic layers are ferromagnetically exchange-coupled, and that such coupling results in pronounced exchange-bias-like shifts of magnetic hysteresis loops during reversal of in-plane magnetization. The presence of exchange bias in this system can be understood on the basis of magnetic closure domains formed in the layer with the out-of-plane easy axis.

Controllable positive exchange bias via redox-driven oxygen migration.

Project description:Ionic transport in metal/oxide heterostructures offers a highly effective means to tailor material properties via modification of the interfacial characteristics. However, direct observation of ionic motion under buried interfaces and demonstration of its correlation with physical properties has been challenging. Using the strong oxygen affinity of gadolinium, we design a model system of GdxFe1-x/NiCoO bilayer films, where the oxygen migration is observed and manifested in a controlled positive exchange bias over a relatively small cooling field range. The exchange bias characteristics are shown to be the result of an interfacial layer of elemental nickel and cobalt, a few nanometres in thickness, whose moments are larger than expected from uncompensated NiCoO moments. This interface layer is attributed to a redox-driven oxygen migration from NiCoO to the gadolinium, during growth or soon after. These results demonstrate an effective path to tailoring the interfacial characteristics and interlayer exchange coupling in metal/oxide heterostructures.

Positive to negative zero-field cooled exchange bias in La0.5Sr0.5Mn0.8Co0.2O3 ceramics.

Project description:Exchange bias effect obtained after zero-field cooling from unmagnetized state usually exhibits a shift of hysteresis loop negative to the direction of the initial magnetic field, known as negative zero-field cooled exchange bias. Here, positive zero-field cooled exchange bias is reported in La0.5Sr0.5Mn0.8Co0.2O3 ceramics. In addition, a transition from positive to negative exchange bias has been observed with increasing initial magnetization field and measurement temperature. Based on a simple spin bidomain model with variable interface, two type of interfacial spin configuration formed during the initial magnetization process are proposed to interpret the observed phenomenon.

Giant proximity effect in single-crystalline MgB2 bilayers.

Project description:Although giant proximity effect (GPE) can shed important information on understanding superconducting pairing mechanisms and superconducting electronics, reports on the GPE are few because the fabrication of the junctions with GPE is technologically difficult. Here, we report a GPE in the single-crystalline MgB2 bilayers (S'/S), where the S' is the damaged MgB2 layer by cobalt (Co)-ion irradiation and the S is the undamaged MgB2 layer. Superconducting properties of the S' is remarkably degraded by the irradiation, whereas those of the S is uninfluenced by the irradiation. The degraded superconductivity in the S' is fully recovered by increasing the thickness of undamaged MgB2 layer S despite almost ten times larger thickness ~ 95 nm of S' than the superconducting coherence length ξab(0) ~ 8.5 nm of the S, indicating a presence of GPE in the S'/S MgB2 bilayers. A diffusion of electrons in the S' into the S can reduce a pair breaking scattering in the S', and the similar electronic structures of S' and S layers and a finite attractive electron-electron interaction in the S' are thought to be origins of unpredicted GPE between the same superconducting materials. Both upper critical field (μ0Hc2) and in-field critical current density (Jc) of S'/S bilayers show a significant enhancement, representing a strong correlation between S' and S. These discoveries provide the blue print to the design of the superconducting multilayers for fundamental researches on the mechanism of the GPE as well as their technological applications.

Non-hysteretic first-order phase transition with large latent heat and giant low-field magnetocaloric effect.

Project description:First-order magnetic transitions (FOMTs) with a large discontinuity in magnetization are highly sought in the development of advanced functional magnetic materials. Isosymmetric magnetoelastic FOMTs that do not perturb crystal symmetry are especially rare, and only a handful of material families, almost exclusively transition metal-based, are known to exhibit them. Yet, here we report a surprising isosymmetric FOMT in a rare-earth intermetallic, Eu2In. What makes this transition in Eu2In even more remarkable is that it is associated with a large latent heat and an exceptionally high magnetocaloric effect in low magnetic fields, but with tiny lattice discontinuities and negligible hysteresis. An active role of the Eu-5d and In-4p states and a rather unique electronic structure borne by In to Eu charge transfer, altogether result in an unusual exchange mechanism that both sets the transition in motion and unveils an approach toward developing specific magnetic functionalities ad libitum.

Giant exchange interaction in mixed lanthanides.

Project description:Combining strong magnetic anisotropy with strong exchange interaction is a long standing goal in the design of quantum magnets. The lanthanide complexes, while exhibiting a very strong ionic anisotropy, usually display a weak exchange coupling, amounting to only a few wavenumbers. Recently, an isostructural series of mixed (Ln?=?Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er) have been reported, in which the exchange splitting is estimated to reach hundreds wavenumbers. The microscopic mechanism governing the unusual exchange interaction in these compounds is revealed here by combining detailed modeling with density-functional theory and ab initio calculations. We find it to be basically kinetic and highly complex, involving non-negligible contributions up to seventh power of total angular momentum of each lanthanide site. The performed analysis also elucidates the origin of magnetization blocking in these compounds. Contrary to general expectations the latter is not always favored by strong exchange interaction.

Hydrogel-stabilized droplet bilayers for high speed solution exchange.

Project description:Many applications utilizing artificial lipid bilayers require the ability to exchange the bilayer's solution environment. However, because of the instability of the bilayer, the rate of solution exchange is limited, which significantly hinders the measurement rate and throughput. We have developed an artificial bilayer system that can withstand high flow speeds, up to 2.1 m/s, by supporting the bilayer with a hydrogel. We demonstrated the ability to measure during flow by measuring the conductance of gramicidin-A channels while switching between solutions of two different compositions, recording a time to measure 90% change in current of approximately 2.7 seconds at a flow rate of 0.1 m/s. We also demonstrated a potential application of this system by measuring the conductance modulation of the rat TRPM8 ion channel by an agonist and antagonist at varying concentrations, obtaining 7-point IC50 and EC50 values in approximately 7 minutes and 4-point values within 4 minutes.

Giant nonreciprocal emission of spin waves in Ta/Py bilayers.

Project description:Spin waves are propagating disturbances in the magnetization of magnetic materials. One of their interesting properties is nonreciprocity, exhibiting that their amplitude depends on the magnetization direction. Nonreciprocity in spin waves is of great interest in both fundamental science and applications because it offers an extra knob to control the flow of waves for the technological fields of logics and switch applications. We show a high nonreciprocity in spin waves from Ta/Py bilayer systems with out-of-plane magnetic fields. The nonreciprocity depends on the thickness of Ta underlayer, which is found to induce an interfacial anisotropy. The origin of observed high nonreciprocity is twofold: different polarities of the in-plane magnetization due to different angles of canted out-of-plane anisotropy and the spin pumping effect at the Ta/Py interface. Our findings provide an opportunity to engineer highly efficient, nonreciprocal spin wave-based applications, such as nonreciprocal microwave devices, magnonic logic gates, and information transports.
