Nanoscale detection and control of the magnetic order underpins a spectrum of condensed-matter research and device functionalities involving magnetism. The key principle involved is the breaking of time-reversal symmetry, which in ferromagnets is generated by an internal magnetization. However, the presence of a net magnetization limits device scalability and compatibility with phases, such as superconductors and topological insulators.

Spin transport and the associated spin torque effects in antiferromagnets (AFMs) are scientifically interesting but have remained elusive due to the varied observations of spin transport in AFMs. This study revisits the role of a global Néel order in nickel oxide (NiO) facilitated through a spin-orbit torque (SOT) and examines the enhanced SOT efficiency in a heavy metal (W)/AFM (NiO)/ferromagnet (FM, CoFeB) trilayer with varying NiO thicknesses ranging from 1 to 5 nm. At the as-grown state, the Néel order of NiO is randomly oriented due to the polycrystalline nature of the film structure, leading to increased spin absorption and blocking spin transport from the adjacent W layer.

Copper oxide high-temperature superconductors, such as BiSrCaCuO (Bi2212), have garnered extensive research interest due to their high critical temperatures (T) surpassing the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) limit. The two-dimensional CuO₂ plane is widely regarded as the most crucial element of high-T cuprate superconductors. The anisotropy of this CuO₂ layer remains a topic of ongoing interest.

The direct detection of light polarization poses a crucial challenge in the field of optoelectronics and photonics. Herein, the tunable linear dichroism (LD) in GeSe-based polarized photodetectors is presented through electronic and structural asymmetry modulation, and demonstrate their application prospects in wearable electronics. An improvement in the dichroic ratio up to 34% is achieved under a gate voltage of 20 V, and the improvement reaches 44% by applying a tensile strain along the zigzag direction.
