We took advantage of the large anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in Fe-Pt ferromagnetic alloys and fabricated magnetic sensors for low-frequency applications. We characterized the low-frequency electronic noise and the field detectability of the FePt system with various thin film thicknesses and Fe concentrations. The noise source consisted of 1/ and Johnson noise. A large current density increased the 1/ noise but not the Johnson noise. We found that the field detectability of the optimized Fe-Pt thin film offers much better low-frequency performance than a highly sensitive commercial semiconductor Hall sensor. Anomalous Hall effect sensors are, therefore, good candidates for magnetic sensing applications.

Exploring valleytronics in two-dimensional materials is of great significance for the development of advanced information devices. In this study, we investigate the valley polarization and electronic properties of V-doped 2H-phase Janus MoSeTe by using first-principles calculations. Our results reveal a remarkable valley spin splitting up to 60 meV, driven by the breaking of time-reversal symmetry due to the magnetic effect of V 3d orbitals.

Spin-orbit torques enable energy-efficient manipulation of magnetization by electric current and hold promise for applications ranging from non-volatile memory to neuromorphic computing. Here we report the discovery of a giant spin-orbit torque induced by anomalous Hall current in ferromagnetic conductors. This anomalous Hall torque is self-generated as it acts on the magnetization of the ferromagnet that engenders the torque.

Antiferromagnets with broken time-reversal ( ) symmetry ( -odd antiferromagnets) have gained extensive attention, mainly due to their ferromagnet-like behavior despite the absence of net magnetization. However, certain types of -odd antiferromagnets remain inaccessible by the typical ferromagnet-like phenomena (e.g.

Tuning anomalous Hall conductivity antiferromagnetic configurations in GdPtBi.

The magnetic, electronic, and topological properties of GdPtBi were systematically investigated using first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Various magnetic configurations were examined, including ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) states, with particular focus on AFM states where the Gd magnetic moments align either parallel (AFM) or perpendicular (AFM) to the [111] crystal direction. For AFM, the in-plane angles were varied at = 0°, 15°, and 30° (denoted as AFM, AFM, and AFM, respectively).
