Coexistence of Ferromagnetic and Stripe-Type Antiferromagnetic Spin Fluctuations in YFe 2 Ge 2

May 31, 2019

Hongliang Wo, Qisi Wang, Yao Shen, Xiaowen Zhang, Yiqing Hao, Yu Feng, Shoudong Shen, Zheng He, Bingying Pan, Wenbin Wang, K. Nakajima, S. Ohira-Kawamura, P. Steffens, M. Boehm, K. Schmalzl, T. R. Forrest, M. Matsuda, Yang Zhao, Jeffrey W. Lynn, Zhiping Yin, Jun Zhao
We report neutron scattering measurments of single-crystalline YFe 2Ge 2 in the normal state, which has the same crystal structure to the 122 family of iron pnictide superconductors. YFe 2Ge 2 does not exhibit long range magnetic order, but exhibits strong

Quantum Critical Behavior in Ce(Fe 0.76 Ru 0.24 ) 2 Ge 2

Wouter Montfrooij, Tom Heitmann, Yiming Qiu, Shannon M. Watson, Ross Erwin, Wangchun Chen, Yang Zhao, Meigan Aronson, Yingkai Huang, Anne de Visser
Systems with embedded magnetic ions that exhibit a competition between magnetic order and disorder down to absolute zero can display unusual low temperature behaviors of the resistivity, hyperscaling behavior in which the relaxation back to equilibrium

High Temperature Singlet-Based Magnetism from Hund's Rule Correlations

Lin Miao, Rourav Basak, Sheng NMN Ran, Yishuai Xu, Erica Kotta, Haowei He, Jonathan D. Denlinger, Yi-De Chuang, Yang Zhao, Zhijun Xu, Jeffrey W. Lynn, J. R. Jeffries, Shanta Ranjan Saha, Ioannis Giannakis, Pegor Aynajian, Chang-Jong Kang, Yilin Wang, Gabriel Kotliar, Nicholas Butch, L. Andrew Wray
Novel electronic phenomena frequently form in heavy fermions as a consequence of the mutual nature of localization and itineracy of f-electrons. On the magnetically ordered side of the heavy fermion phase diagram, f-moments are expected to be localized and

Coexistence of Superconductivity and Short-Range Double-Stripe Spin Correlations in Te-Vapor Annealed FeTe 1-x Se x (X less than or equal to} 0.2)

Zhijun Xu, J. A. Schneeloch, Ming Yi, Yang Zhao, Masaaki Matsuda, D. M. Pajerowski, Songxue Chi, R. J. Birgeneau, Genda Gu, J. M. Tranquada, Guangyong Xu
In as-grown bulk crystals of Fe 1+yTe 1-xSe x with x less than or equal to} 0.3, excess Fe (y>0) is inevitable and correlates with a suppression of superconductivity. At the same time, there remains the question as to whether the character of the

Amplitude Mode in the Planar Triangular Antiferromagnet Na 0.9 MnO 2

Author(s)
Rebecca L. Dally, Yang Zhao, Zhijun Xu, Robin Chisnell, M. B. Stone, Jeffrey W. Lynn, Leon Balents, Stephen D. Wilson
Amplitude modes that arise from continuous symmetry breaking in materials are of broad interest as condensed matter analogs of the Higgs boson in particle physics. These modes reflect an oscillation in the amplitude of a complex order parameter, yet they

Surprising Loss of Three-Dimensionality in Low-Energy Spin Correlations on Approaching Superconductivity in Fe 1+y Te 1-x Se x

Zhijun Xu, J. A. Schneeloch, Jinsheng Wen, B. L. Winn, G. E. Granroth, Yang Zhao, Genda Gu, I. Zaliznyak, J. M. Tranquada, R. J. Birgeneau, Guangyong Xu
We report inelastic neutron scattering measurements of low energy (hwapproximately less than} 10 meV) magnetic excitations in the "11" system Fe 1+yTe 1-xSe x. The spin correlations are two-dimensional (2D) in the superconducting samples at low temperature

Complex Magnetic Incommensurability and Electronic Charge Transfer through the Ferroelectric Transition in Multiferroic Co 3 TeO 6

July 25, 2017
Author(s)
Chi-Hung Lee, Chin-Wei Wang, Yang Zhao, Wen-Hsien Li, Jeffrey W. Lynn, A. Brooks Harris, Kirrily Rule, Hung-Duen Yang, Helmuth Berger
Polarized and unpolarized neutron diffractions have been carried out to investigate the nature of the magnetic structures and transitions in monoclinic Co 3TeO 6. As the temperature is lowered: below T M1 = 26 K long range order develops, which is fully

Nonreciprocal Magnons and Symmetry-Breaking in the Noncentrosymmetric Antiffomagnet

July 24, 2017
Author(s)
G. Gitgeatpong, Yang Zhao, P. Piyawongwatthana, Yiming Qiu, Leland Harriger, Nicholas Butch, T. J. Sato, K. Matan
Magnons, the spin-wave quanta, are disturbances that embody a wave propagating through a back-ground medium formed by ordered magnetic moments. In an isotropic Heisenberg system, these disturbances vary in a continuous manner around an ordered spin

The Effects of high magnetic fields applied perpendicular to the spontaneous ferroelectric polarization on single crystals of BiFeO 3 were investigated through magnetization, magnetostriction, and neutron diffraction measurements. The magnetostriction

High-field magnetization of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnet α-Cu 2V 2O 7 was measured in pulsed magnetic fields of up to 56 T in order to study its magnetic phase diagram. When the field was applied along the easy axis (the a-axis), two distinct transitions

The low-temperature magnetic phases in the layered honeycomb lattice material α-RuCl 3 have been studied as a function of in-plane magnetic field. In zero field this material orders magnetically below 7 K with so-called zigzag order within the honeycomb
