Published: November 2018

The electric and optical properties were studied in SbTe with different thickness. It reveals the same resistivity at measured temperatures, but shows a larger magnetoresistance ratio at thicker flakes. All measured data conformed to a linear correlation between magnetoresistance ratio which is one-order enhanced, and mobility over a wide mobility range. A higher photocurrent response is observed in thicker flakes. These results support that the thickness enhances the effective carrier mobility which leads to magneto-transport and optic properties enhancement.

Perovskite cobaltites have emerged as archetypes for electrochemical control of materials properties in electrolyte-gate devices. Voltage-driven redox cycling can be performed between fully oxygenated perovskite and oxygen-vacancy-ordered brownmillerite phases, enabling exceptional modulation of the crystal structure, electronic transport, thermal transport, magnetism, and optical properties. The vast majority of studies, however, have focused heavily on the perovskite and brownmillerite end points.

Ferroic orders describe spontaneous polarization of spin, charge and lattice degrees of freedom in materials. Materials exhibiting multiple ferroic orders, known as multiferroics, have important parts in multifunctional electrical and magnetic device applications. Two-dimensional materials with honeycomb lattices offer opportunities to engineer unconventional multiferroicity, in which the ferroic orders are driven purely by the orbital degrees of freedom and not by electron spin.

Layered magnetic materials are becoming a major platform for future spin-based applications. Particularly, the air-stable van der Waals compound CrSBr is attracting considerable interest due to its prominent magneto-transport and magneto-optical properties. In this work, we observe a transition from antiferromagnetic to ferromagnetic behavior in CrSBr crystals exposed to high-energy, non-magnetic ions.

Hydrogenation-induced modification of magnetic properties has been widely studied. A Mg spacer layer with high hydrogen storage stability was clamped in a Pd/Co/Mg/Fe multilayer structure to enhance its hydrogen storage stability and explore the structure's magneto-transport properties. After 1 bar hydrogen exposure, the formation of a stable MgH phase was demonstrated in an ambient environment at room temperature through X-ray diffraction.

In this work we investigate the influence of quadratic in momentum term (Schrodinger term) on magneto-transport properties of thin film topological insulators. The Schrodinger term modifies the Dirac cones into an hourglass shape which results in inter and intraband Landau levels crossings. Breaking of the particle-hole symmetry in Landau level spectrum in the presence ofterm leads to asymmetrical density of states profile.
