The antisymmetric Dzyaloshinkii-Moriya interaction (DMI) arises in systems with broken inversion symmetry and strong spin-orbit coupling. In conjunction with the isotropic and symmetric exchange interaction, magnetic anisotropy, the dipolar interaction, and an externally applied magnetic field, the DMI supports and stabilizes the formation of various kinds of complex mesoscale magnetization...
Recently, centrosymmetric lanthanide metals have been the subject of intense research due to the discovery of skyrmions in materials such as Gd$_2$PdSi$_3$, GdRu$_2$Si$_2$, Gd$_3$Ru$_4$Al$_{12}$, EuAl$_4$, and EuNiGe$_3$. In this talk, I will present work on a europium triangle lattice compound in this family. Through spherical polarimetry using CRYOPAD at ThALES and polarized SANS...
In condensed matter physics, the last decade has been dedicated to the search for non-trivial topological materials. Significant progress has been made in characterizing different intermetallic families, where non-trivial topological properties such as topological insulators, Weyl semimetals, Dirac semimetals, and Skyrmion structures have been realized. The rare-earth-based half-Heusler (HH)...
