The feasibility of a single-domain ferromagnet based on uniaxial magnetic ions was examined. For a noncentrosymmetric uniaxial magnetic ion of magnetic moment μ at a site of local electric dipole moment p, it is unknown to date whether μ prefers to be parallel or antiparallel to μ. The nature of this magnetoelectric interaction was probed in terms of analogical reasoning based on the Rashba effect and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We show that μ and p prefer an antiparallel arrangement, predict that Fe-doped CaZnOS is a single-domain ferromagnet like a bar magnet, and find the probable cause for the ferromagnetism and weak magnetization hysteresis in Fe-doped hexagonal ZnO and ZnS at very low dopant concentrations.

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.

This work brings out many interesting facets of magnetism in the NiAl/NiO core/shell nanoparticle system. Theandmagnetic irreversibility lines (TWI(H)andTSI(H)) reproduce the previously reported - phase diagram at fieldsH⩽30 Oe, but strong departures occur for > 30 Oe. Comparison with the theoretically predicted - phase diagram allows us to identifywithTCG+SG, where the paramagnetic (PM)-chiral glass () and PM-spin glass () phase transitions occur, andwith, the temperature at which transition to the replica symmetry breakingstate takes place.

FeGeTe(= 3, 5) are two-dimensional ferromagnetic (FM) materials that have gained significant attention from researchers due to their relatively high Curie temperature and tunability. However, the methods for preparing FM nanoparticles (FNPs) and large-area FeGeTefilms are still in the early stages. Here, we studied the magnetic properties of FeGeTeFNPs exfoliated via wet exfoliation in pure water.

Recently, giant coercivities (20-42 kOe) and sub-terahertz natural ferromagnetic resonance (NFMR) at 100-300 GHz were observed for single-domain M-type hexaferrite particles with high aluminum substitution. Herein, we fabricated dense ceramics of SrCaFeAlO and, for the first time, investigated their magnetostatic and magnetodynamic properties in the temperature range of 5-300 K. It was shown that dense ceramics maintain their high magnetic hardness (a coercivity of 10-20 kOe) and NFMR frequencies of 140-200 GHz durably in the entire temperature range.

In alignment with the increasing demand for larger storage capacity and longer data retention, the electrical control of magnetic anisotropy has been a research focus in the realm of spintronics. Typically, magnetic anisotropy is determined by grain dimensionality, which is set during the fabrication of magnetic thin films. Despite the intrinsic correlation between magnetic anisotropy and grain dimensionality, there is a lack of experimental evidence for electrically controlling grain dimensionality, thereby impairing the efficiency of magnetic anisotropy modulation.
