We investigate how the orientation of an external magnetic field influences magnetization reversal and spin textures in FeGe nanocylinders using micromagnetic simulations based on the Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation in MuMax3. FeGe, a prototypical chiral magnet with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI), stabilizes nontrivial spin textures such as skyrmions. We analyze nanocylinders of fixed length (50 nm) and diameters of 50–100 nm, subjected to fields applied at angles from 1° to 91° relative to the cylinder axis. Results show a pronounced angular dependence of coercivity and remanence, with sharp drops at diameter-dependent critical angles marking transitions from skyrmion-mediated reversal to trivial helical modes. Topological charge analysis confirms that below the critical angle, slices exhibit values near unity, while above it, the topological character vanishes. For larger diameters (90–100 nm), S-shaped helices linked to remanence minima emerge. These findings highlight angular control as a design parameter in spintronic devices exploiting topological textures.

The magnetic chiral soliton lattice (CSL) is a topological spin texture with remarkable stability, arising from the competition between monoaxial Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM) interaction and Heisenberg exchange interaction. In this study, we introduce Fe substitution into the prototypical CSL system Cr1/3NbS2, which effectively reduces its in-plane magnetic anisotropy. Notably, both the chiral helical order and the CSL state persist in the (Cr1-xFex)1/3NbS2 compound at x = 0.13, exhibiting a stripe period of approximately 72 nm at zero magnetic field. Combined with atomistic spin model simulations, we suggest that the enlarged period of magnetic stripes, compared to pristine Cr1/3NbS2, can originate from the DM change or reduced magnetic anisotropy. This work elucidates the important role of magnetic anisotropy in determining the CSL state.

The double perovskite Dy2CoMnO6 polycrystalline was synthesized successfully. Its structure, magnetization and dielectric properties were studied. Refinement of the XRD diffraction data reveals a monoclinic structure for Dy2CoMnO6 compound. Unlike multiferroic Lu2CoMnO6, no spontaneous ferroelectric polarization is detected in Dy2CoMnO6. This difference can be attributed to that the different ionic radii of rare earth affect the sign and strength of the super-exchange interaction of Co2+-O-Mn4+. It causes the Dy2CoMnO6 to have a ferromagnetic ground state. Therefore, the spatial inversion symmetry in Dy2CoMnO6 can't be broken and spontaneous ferroelectricity is absent. But the Dy2CoMnO6 still present obvious magnetodielectric coupling. By investing the magnetic field dependent dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss, we demonstrate that the intrinsic coupling effect such as the reorientation of Co2+-Mn4+ dipole and the magnetostriction play the dominant role at low temperature. At high temperature the magnetoelectric coupling of Dy2CoMnO6 mainly comes from the magnetoresistance and Maxwell-Wagner effect.

We report the structural, magnetic, and colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) properties of Sr2+ − doped lanthanum manganites La1-xSrxMnO3 (x = 0.3, 0.4, 0.5) (LSMO) synthesized via the gel combustion method. X – ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of a single – phase rhombohedral perovskite structure (space group R3̅c), with refined lattice parameters showing a systematic decrease in the c-axis and crystallite sizes increasing from 20.85 to 23.02 nm as Sr2+ content increased. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectra exhibited Mn – O bending (∼ 500 cm−1) and stretching (∼ 640 cm−1) modes, with peak shifts and intensity changes confirming lattice strain and successful Sr2+ substitution. Raman spectroscopy revealed eight phonon modes (199–727 cm−1), including A1g and Eg symmetries, indicating local lattice distortions and Jahn – Teller effects due to Sr2+ doping. Magnetic properties were studied using vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) and ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). VSM results showed decreasing saturation magnetization (MS) (57.10–34.69 emu/g) and increasing coercivity with Sr2+ doping, attributed to reduced double exchange interactions and increased Mn4+ content. FMR analysis showed enhanced g-factors (>2.00), with low – temperature data (77 K) indicating increased ferromagnetic ordering and static Jahn – Teller distortion. X – ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and 55Mn internal field nuclear magnetic resonance (IFNMR) were employed to analyze oxidation states and local magnetic environments, quantifying Mn3+/Mn4+ ratios and their role in magnetic behavior. CMR properties measured at 77 K revealed significant magnetoresistance, affirming the potential of these materials for applications in magnetic sensing, data storage, and spintronic devices.

We investigate magnetic properties of a three-dimensional (3D) system of identical, spherical, single-domain, ferromagnetic nanoparticles with cubic magnetocrystalline anisotropy. Particles are immobilised in a nonmagnetic medium. Using the Monte Carlo techniques we simulate zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) experiments and calculate hysteresis curves for systems with different inter-particle distances. We compare results obtained when particles occupy sites of a simple cubic lattice with their anisotropy axes oriented randomly (Case A) and when particles are distributed randomly in space but with exactly parallel anisotropy axes of all nanoparticles (Case B). Values of the physical parameters used in our simulations correspond to the particles built of fcc-Co.

Binary manganese-bismuthide-based (MnBi) alloys emerge as an exceptional archetype for a promising transition-metal-bearing hard magnet, but the high-quality alloying formation of the ferromagnetic phases is predominantly hindered by the peritectic reaction of transition metal Mn and semimetal Bi during the solidification procedure, as well as usually containing non-magnetic impurities. To alleviate these issues, we employed the well-established bottom-up procedure, including rapid melt-spinning, followed by a thermal crystalline-growth-assisted annealing process, to fabricate high-performance stoichiometric Mn54Bi46 alloying ribbon and its Sb-doped samples. Substituting a small amount (up to 4 at. %) of isovalent configuration (sp) Sb for Bi in the samples pronounces the particle-size reduction, resulting in a typically positive effect of coercivity force in phase formation as well as fractional enhancement of the ferromagnetic MnBi phases. In particular, the underlying permanent magnetic features, such as coercivity () and saturation magnetization (), reach corresponding values of 14 kOe with 20 emu/g and 10.5 kOe with 52.5 emu/g, with a typical = 3.9 MGOe for 2 at. % Sb-doping concentration before and after the annealing conditions of 200 °C for 2 h. While magnetocrystalline anisotropy is a missing piece in previous studies of Sb-doped MnBi materials, by applying the law of approach to saturation magnetization to high-field magnetic data, we obtain = 0.92–1.1 MJ/m for the 0–3 at. % Sb-doping annealed samples, which overlap with the known value of pristine MnBi alloys.

With the development of quantum information technologies, the nonlinear effects of coupled magnon-photon systems have drawn great attention. In this work, we design and fabricate an R-shaped planar microresonator (PMR) with high quality factor and high microwave conversion efficiency. The strong coupling between microwave photons in PMR and magnons in YIG is achieved under different configurations of bias magnetic field. Interestingly, under out-of-plane bias field and high microwave power, the spectrum displays two characteristics: the blue shift of magnon mode and the comb-like feature. The blue shift of magnon mode originates from the intrinsic magnon nonlinearity, and the comb-like spectrum originates from the hybridization of magnon mode with microwave photon mode and phonon modes. Our findings indicate the potential of PMR for exploring nonlinear cavity magnonics and on-chip integrated quantum information technologies.

This study explores the magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of fayalite. While classical magnetization measurements at a magnetic field of 0.01 T reveal the existence of only one transition from an inclined antiferromagnetic state to a collinear antiferromagnetic state at 30 K. Magnetic entropy (-ΔSm) across different temperatures and magnetic fields, reveals the existence of two well defined peaks corresponding to two magnetic transitions. One transition located at the Critical Temperature (TCr) around 30 K, and a second transition located at Néel temperature (TN) around 70 K marks the change from a collinear antiferromagnetic state to a paramagnetic state. This latter transition is not visible in the conventional magnetization at low fields versus temperature measurements. The phase transition induced by magnetic fields is identified as second order based on Arrott plots. The relative cooling power (RCP) was found to depend on the magnetic field according to a power law. These results demonstrate that the magnetocaloric effect is a particularly effective probe for detecting and studying complex magnetic transitions.

Rare earth/transition metal (RE/TM) multilayers with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy are key ingredients for the development of spintronic applications. Their compensation temperature depends on the ratio of the thicknesses of rare earth and transition metal, allowing their magnetic properties to be tuned with temperature while maintaining their anisotropy even in nanometer-scale devices. In this work, we performed a thorough structural characterization and systematically investigate the magnetic properties of a whole family of ferrimagnetic [Tb/Co] multilayers varying the Tb thickness in the range of 0.4nm - 1.25nm. A linear dependence of the compensation temperature on the Tb layer thickness was observed.

Earlier demonstration of magnetic film-based functionalities on flexible substrates have highlighted the importance of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) in flexible electronics. Here we studied magnetic anisotropic properties of flexible CoFeB/Pt multilayers with various structural parameters including substrate roughness, layer thickness, and stacking period, to anatomy the involved variables on PMA magnitude. A robust PMA is achieved in flexible CoFeB/Pt multilayers after improving surface roughness of flexible substrate, which is identical to that grown on rigid substrate. CoFeB and Pt thickness dependent magnetic anisotropy analysis confirms that the PMA is originated from CoFeB/Pt interface with a constant magnitude of 0.39 erg/cm2 regardless of the stack period. However, for Pt thickness below 1.5 nm, the interfacial PMA is gradually decrease, resulting in the magnetic easy axis shifts from perpendicular to planar orientation as the stacking period increases. After excluding possible influences from interfacial roughness and magnetic interlayer interactions, the reduction in PMA is attributed to limited orbital hybridization at the interface caused by the insufficient thickness of the Pt layer.
