Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two-dimensional materials provide a new platform for discovery of exotic physics and phenomena. They possess rich electronic properties, susceptibility to electric control, danglingbond-free interfaces, and readily controlled thicknesses. These properties make them accessible, engineerable, and integrable into emergent heterostructures for previously unachievable properties and applications like atomically-thin magnetoelectric devices for ultracompact spintronics. Although layered materials like graphene are not inherently spin-polarized, magnetic proximity effect-induced spin splitting has been identified as an effective way to realize spin transport in graphene. Except the magnetic proximity effect, recently discovered long-range intrinsic magnetic orders in the van der Waals materials rise fundamental research interests. This dissertation includes the experimental realization of monolayer graphene magnetized by an underlying antiferromagnet. By coupling graphene to an antiferromagnetic thin film, exchange splitting energy as large as 134 meV at 2 K. This exchange splitting energy can be modulated through field coolings, which is reflected through the shifted quantum Hall plateau and quantum oscillations in graphene. Further, magneto-optic Kerr measurement supports magnetism in the graphene at low temperatures. This work establishes a key functionality for future graphene-based spin logic and memory devices. Different from the induced magnetism into graphene, the interface-induced Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and N eel-type skyrmion lattice in an intrinsic van derWaals ferromagnetic material Fe3GeTe2 have also been discussed. By coupling Fe3GeTe2 to 1T'-WTe2, a large interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction can be induced at the interface probably due to the inversion symmetry breaking. Transport measurements have shown the topological Hall effect in this heterostructure for temperatures below 100 K. Furthermore, Lorentz transmission electron microscopy is used to directly image N eel-type skyrmions along with aligned and stripe-like domain structures. This interfacial coupling induced Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is estimated to have a large energy of 1.0 mJ/m2, which is much larger than the critical value required to stabilize the N eel-type skyrmions. This work paves a path towards the skyrmionic devices based on van der Waals layered heterostructure. Based on either induced or intrinsic magnetism in van der Waals materials, possible quantum anomalous Hall insulators and van der Waals heterostructureare listed and proposed.

Download or read book Spin Glasses written by J A Mydosh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1993-05-13 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phase of condensed matter known as spin glasses has become a vital and productive area of research. Historically, experiment has suggested unusual effects which have brought the theoretical study of the spin Glass Problem Onto The Same Footing As The Experimental Study. Experiments in the late 1960s on magnetic alloys presented interesting effects which were difficult to explain. It took until the mid 1970s for new developments in condensed matter theory to reveal that a sharp phase transition was at the root of the phenomenon. John Mydosh tells the story of the spin glasses in a phenomenological way. He describes these materials first from the premise of an experiment, using figures and tables rather than equations and derivations. This empirical approach then leads to recent advances in finding and measuring spin glasses which closely mimic the theoretical models. The author describes spin glasses as a state of magnetic ordering in third place after ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism. He also pays heed to the importance of amorphous or glassy materials in contemporary physics while also describing the richness of analogues with many areas of research from astrophysics via molecular evolution to zoology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the 40th anniversary of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless Theory (BKT), this informative volume looks back at some of the developments and achievements and varied physics applications which ensued from the beautiful BKT vortex-unbinding seminal idea.During the last four decades, BKT theory, which is undeniably one of the most important developments in condensed matter and theoretical physics of the second half of the twentieth century, has expanded widely. It has been used and extended from many different theoretical and experimental perspectives. New and unexpected features have been uncovered from the BKT theory. Since its inception, apart from applications in condensed matter physics, the theory has been actively applied in other branches of physics, such as high energy physics, atomic physics, nuclear physics, statistical physics, nonlinear systems, etc. This makes the theory an indispensable topic for all who are involved in physics.An international team of experts, each of whom has left his mark on the developments of this remarkable theory and experimental applications, contribute both historical essays and more detailed current technical and experimental accounts to this volume. These articles highlight the new discoveries from the respective authors' perspectives.This unique volume celebrates the impact over four decades of the BKT theory on modern physics. In addition to the historical perspective provided by Kosterlitz and Thouless's overview, the volume provides a comprehensive description of experimental and theoretical applications and extensions of the BKT theory.
