It is well established that the spin-orbit interaction in heavy metal/ferromagnet heterostructures leads to a significant interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Interaction (DMI) modifies internal structure of magnetic domain walls (DWs) favor N\'{e}el over Bloch type configurations. However, impact such transition on and stability DW defects (e.g., vertical lines) has not yet been explored.

Confirming the origin of Gilbert damping by experiment has remained a challenge for many decades, even simple ferromagnetic metals. Here, we experimentally identify that increases with decreasing electronic scattering in epitaxial thin films pure Fe. This observation conductivitylike damping, which cannot be accounted classical eddy-current loss, is excellent quantitative agreement theoretical predictions due to intraband scattering.

Two-dimensional van der Waals (vdWs) materials have gathered a lot of attention recently. However, the majority these Curie temperatures that are well below room temperature, making it challenging to incorporate them into device applications. In this work, we synthesized room-temperature vdW magnetic crystal Fe5GeTe2 with temperature T K, and studied its properties by vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM) broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) spectroscopy. The experiments were performed...

Skyrmions hold great promise for low-energy consumption and stable high-density information storage, stabilization of the skyrmion lattice (SkX) phase at or above room temperature is greatly desired practical use. The topological Hall effect can be used to identify candidate systems temperature, a challenging regime direct observation by Lorentz electron microscopy. Atomically ordered FeGe thin films are grown epitaxially on Ge(111) substrates with $\ensuremath{\sim}4%$ tensile strain....

To develop low-moment, low-damping metallic ferromagnets for power-efficient spintronic devices, it is crucial to understand how magnetic relaxation impacted by the addition of nonmagnetic elements. Here, we compare in epitaxial Fe films alloyed with light elements V and Al. FeV alloys exhibit lower intrinsic damping compared pure Fe, reduced nearly a factor 2, whereas FeAl increases Al content. Our experimental computational results indicate that reducing density states at Fermi level,...

We report on the experimental investigation of perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in $\mathrm{Pt}/{[\mathrm{Co}/\mathrm{Ni}]}_{\mathrm{N}}/\mathrm{Ir}$ multilayers.

Spin currents can exert spin-transfer torques on magnetic systems even in the limit of vanishingly small net magnetization, as is case for antiferromagnets. Here, we experimentally show that a torque operative material with weak, short-range order -- namely, macroscopic ensemble superparamagnetic-like Co nanomagnets. We employ element- and time-resolved X-ray ferromagnetic resonance (XFMR) spectroscopy to directly detect sub-ns dynamics nanomagnets, excited into precession cone angle...

Magnetic damping impacts essential dynamics for spintronic device applications, but its fundamental mechanisms in various materials – including simple ferromagnetic metals have yet to be understood. Here, we experimentally correlate with structural and transport properties of epitaxial thin films Fe. At room temperature, the effective Gilbert parameter is independent whether these are coherently strained or partially relaxed. However, at low find that Fe higher crystalline quality...
