The direct observation of spin structures with atomic-scale resolution, a long-time dream in
condensed matter research, recently became a reality based on the development of spin …

Advances in high-resolution and spin-resolved scanning tunnelling microscopy, as well as
atomic-scale manipulation, have enabled the bottom-up, atom-by-atom creation and …

A permanent magnet retains a substantial fraction of its saturation magnetization in the
absence of an external magnetic field. Realizing magnetic remanence in a single atom …

Achieving time-domain control of quantum states with atomic-scale spatial resolution in
nanostructures is a long-term goal in quantum nanoscience and spintronics. Here, we …

Superconducting proximity pairing in helical edge modes, such as those of topological
insulators, is predicted to provide a unique platform for realizing Majorana zero modes …

The surface states of a topological insulator are described by an emergent relativistic
massless Dirac equation in 2+ 1 dimensions. In contrast with graphene, there is an odd …

An ultimate goal of spintronic research is the realization of concepts for atomic-scale all-spin–
based devices. We combined bottom-up atomic fabrication with spin-resolved scanning …

Written by three leading experts in the field, this book describes and explains all essential
aspects of scanning probe microscopy. Emphasis is placed on the experimental design and …

Volume 15 of the Handbook on the Properties of Magnetic Materials, as the preceding
volumes, has a dual purpose. As a textbook it is intended to be of assistance to those who …

Vacuum tunneling of spin-polarized electrons from a ferromagnetic CrO 2 tip into a Cr (001)
single crystal has been observed by means of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) …
