Summary: In this study, we report the structural property of high quality Mn3Sn thin film on insulator substrate MgO(110) by molecular beam epitaxy, and the control of residual mismatch strain between Mn3Sn film and substrate on the anomalous Hall effect (AHE). Strain-free Mn3Sn(10 1 0) films or alternatively strained Mn3Sn(11 2 0) films were grown via a three-step process. The strain-free Mn3Sn film exhibits large anomalous Hall conductivity up to 30 Ω^-1cm^-1 at room temperature, comparable to bulk Mn3Sn. In contrast, AHE is switched off in strained Mn3Sn film due to piezomagnetic effect under a uniaxial compress strain of -2.0%.

Summary: A systematic synchrotron high-pressure X-ray powder diffraction study of Mn3Sn up to 9 GPa reveals that the crystal symmetry remains in the hexagonal P6(3)/mmc space group with a continuous reduction of lattice parameters. Analysis suggests that the magnetic ground state of the Mn3Sn system may change above 4 GPa due to variations in local atomic interactions.

Summary: The study found that adding 1% Bi atoms to the (Ga,Mn)(Bi,As) epitaxial layers significantly enhances the strength of the planar Hall effect. Additionally, Bi incorporation into the layers enhances their coercive fields and uniaxial magneto-crystalline anisotropy. This material may have potential applications in spintronic devices.

Summary: The study found that inserting a thin Cu interlayer into the Pt/Co interface can enhance USMR, where the Cu/Co system exhibits a large GMR. Experimental results show that the spin current injection into the Co layer is not modulated by the Cu interlayer, and USMR increases with Cu thickness, reaching a peak before decreasing.

Summary: SiC is an excellent semiconductor material with high thermal conductivity, stable chemical properties, and high critical breakdown field strength. This paper investigates the epitaxial growth of SiC on n-type SiC substrates and analyzes the effects of growth temperature on the surface morphology of SiC epitaxial layers. The results show that higher growth temperature can lead to smoother surface and higher content of 4H-SiC.

Summary: We grew epitaxial thin films of hematite on Al2O3 substrates and investigated their magnetic properties. The films undergo Morin transition at higher temperatures when grown at lower temperatures. The magnetic properties were characterized by spin Hall magnetoresistance, revealing tri-axial magnetic anisotropy and large changes in SMR ratio associated with Neel vector re-orientation due to Morin transition.

Summary: In this study, we investigate the growth of Fe3Sn2 thin films on Si/SiO2 substrates with two different seed layers (Ta and Pt). We find that Pt/Fe3Sn2 thin films form a pure ferromagnetic phase with higher saturation magnetization and exhibit an anomalous Hall coefficient that is two orders of magnitude higher than traditional ferromagnets. These results are important for the development of novel topological spintronic devices.

Summary: Understanding the magnetotransport properties of SrRuO3 thin films and heterostructures is crucial for both fundamental research and practical applications. This study investigates the correlation between magnetoresistance and structure symmetry using SrRuO3/SrTiO3(001) epitaxial films. The results suggest that the relationship between structural symmetry and magnetoresistance is mediated by the modulations in magnetic anisotropy. These findings provide insights into harnessing the magnetotransport properties of SrRuO3 films and utilizing them in oxide-based spintronic devices.

Summary: The integration of ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic bilayers with exchange bias effect on flexible substrates is crucial for flexible spintronics. Here, the epitaxial Co/MnN bilayers are deposited on mica by facing-target sputtering. A large in-plane exchange bias field (HEB) of 1800 Oe with a coercive field (HC) of 2750 Oe appears in the Co (3.8 nm)/MnN (15.0 nm) bilayer at 5 K after field cooling from 300 to 5 K. Effective interfacial exchange energy Jeff of the Co/MnN bilayer is 0.83 erg/cm2. The strain-induced maximum increase of HEB and HC reaches 18% and 21%, respectively, in the Co(3.8 nm)/MnN(15.0 nm) bilayer. Strain-modulated HEB is attributed to the change of interfacial exchange coupling between Co and MnN layers. HEB is inversely proportional to Co thickness but independent of MnN thickness. The change of HEB is less than 5% after 100 bending cycles, indicating mechanical durability.。

Summary: The magnetization dynamics of nanomagnetic beads with a diameter ranging from 80 to 250 nm were studied using a high-resolution elliptical planar Hall effect (EPHE) sensor integrated with a fluidic channel. The dynamics were well described with Cole-Cole and exponential decay models for frequency and time domains, respectively. The potential use of EPHE sensors in lab-on-a-chip applications was discussed.

Summary: We present a planar Hall effect magnetometer consisting of a parallel array of permalloy-based elliptical sensors. The array configuration and fabrication parameters are optimized using numerical simulations. The magnetometer achieves equivalent magnetic noise (EMN) of 16 pT/(sic) Hz at 100 Hz, 25 pT/(sic) Hz at 10 Hz, 98 pT/(sic) Hz at 1 Hz, and 470 pT/(sic) Hz at 0.1 Hz. The absence of magnetic flux concentrators in this design highlights its advantages. This straightforward, cost-effective magnetometer shows potential for applications requiring pT resolution at room temperature.

Summary: Using bilayer films of-Ta/Ni0.8Fe0.2, elliptical structures with single magnetic domain behavior are fabricated. Giant response to induced spin-orbit torques is observed in these devices, which is quantitatively correlated with the in-plane angles of the magnetization and the magnetic field during magnetization reversal of the NiFe layer. Theoretical and applicative implications of this behavior are discussed.
