Polar metals taxonomy for materials classification and discovery

D Hickox-Young, D Puggioni, JM Rondinelli - Physical Review Materials, 2023 - APS
Over the past decade, materials that combine broken inversion symmetry with metallic
conductivity have gone from a thought experiment to one of the fastest growing research …

Metamagnetic texture in a polar antiferromagnet

DA Sokolov, N Kikugawa, T Helm, H Borrmann… - Nature Physics, 2019 - nature.com
The notion of a simple ordered state implies homogeneity. If the order is established by a
broken symmetry, the elementary Landau theory of phase transitions shows that only one …

Spontaneous cycloidal order mediating a spin-reorientation transition in a polar metal

CD Dashwood, LSI Veiga, Q Faure, JG Vale, DG Porter… - Physical Review B, 2020 - APS
We show how complex modulated order can spontaneously emerge when magnetic
interactions compete in a metal with polar lattice distortions. Combining neutron and …

Doped spin–orbital Mott insulators: Orbital dilution versus spin–orbital polarons

W Brzezicki, A Avella, M Cuoco, AM Oleś - Journal of Magnetism and …, 2022 - Elsevier
Here we compare two kinds of doping in transition metal oxides by considering defects due
to the substitution of the transition metal or rare earth element. The focus is on insulating t 2 …

Magnetic structure and field dependence of the cycloid phase mediating the spin reorientation transition in

Q Faure, CD Dashwood, CV Colin, RD Johnson… - Physical Review …, 2023 - APS
We report a comprehensive experimental investigation of the magnetic structure of the
cycloidal phase in Ca 3 Ru 2 O 7, which mediates the spin reorientation transition and …

Comprehensive magnetic phase diagrams of the polar metal

S Lei, S Chikara, D Puggioni, J Peng, M Zhu, M Gu… - Physical Review B, 2019 - APS
Polar metals exist as a rather unique class of materials as they combine two seemingly
mutually exclusive properties (polar order and metallicity) in one system. So far only a few …

Tipping the magnetic instability in paramagnetic by Fe impurities

M Zhu, Y Wang, PG Li, JJ Ge, W Tian, D Keavney… - Physical Review B, 2017 - APS
We report the magnetic and electronic properties of the bilayer ruthenate S r 3 R u 2 O 7
upon Fe substitution for Ru. We find that S r 3 (R u 1− x F ex) 2 O 7 shows a spin-glass-like …

Field-induced magnetic phase transitions and memory effect in bilayer ruthenate Ca3Ru2O7 with Fe substitution

M Zhu, T Hong, J Peng, T Zou, ZQ Mao… - Journal of Physics …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Bilayer ruthenate Ca 3 (Ru 1− x Fe x) 2 O 7 (x= 0.05) exhibits an incommensurate
magnetic soliton lattice driven by the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction. Here we report …

Complex magnetic structure in with isolated trimer

T Basu, FY Wei, Q Zhang, Y Fang, X Ke - Physical Review Materials, 2020 - APS
We report detailed magnetic, transport, heat-capacity, and neutron-diffraction measurements
of Ba 5 Ru 3 O 12, a compound consisting of isolated Ru 3 O 12 trimers. We show that this …

Characterisation and control of electron-lattice coupling in 4d and 5d quantum materials

CD Dashwood - 2022 - discovery.ucl.ac.uk
The burgeoning field of quantum materials concerns systems that do not adhere to the
traditional theories of condensed matter physics. A key feature of these materials is a strong …
