$\alpha$-RuCl$_3$ is considered to be the top candidate material for experimental realization of celebrated Kitaev model. It however known that additional interactions beyond model trigger in $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, a long-range zigzag antiferromagnetic ground state. In this work, we investigate nanoflake through guarded high impedance measurements aimed at reaching electronic transport, regime where system turns into antiferromagnet. We investigated variety temperatures (\SI{1.45}{\kelvin} -...
Layered ferromagnets are thrilling materials from both a fundamental and technological point of view. VI3 is an interesting example, with complex magnetism that differentiates it the first reported Cr based layered ferromagnets. Here, we show in indirect way through Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES) experiments, importance spin-orbit coupling setting electronic properties this material. Our light polarized photoemission measurements to ground state half-filled e'_+- doublet,...
${\mathrm{PtTe}}_{2}$ and ${\mathrm{PdTe}}_{2}$ are among the first transition metal dichalcogenides that were predicted to host type-II Dirac fermions, exotic particles prohibited in free space. These materials layered air stable, which makes them top candidates for technological applications take advantage of their anisotropic magnetotransport properties. Here, we provide a detailed characterization electronic structure using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) density...
