Ferromagnetic exchange field stabilized antiferromagnetic ordering in a cuprate superconductor

Surface-stabilized nonferromagnetic ordering of a layered ferromagnetic manganite.

An outstanding question regarding the probing or possible device applications of correlated electronic materials (CEMs) with layered structure is the extent to which their bulk and surface properties differ or not. The broken translational symmetry at the surface can lead to distinct functionality due to the charge, lattice, orbital, and spin coupling. Here we report on the case of bilayered ma...

Exchange coupling induced antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic transition in Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3/La0.5Ca0.5MnO3 superlattices.

Coercivity and exchange bias of ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic multilayers

For a model system consisting of a ferromagnetic layer exchange coupled to an antiferromagnetic layer with a compensated interface, detailed mean-field-type calculations are performed. Both the coercive field and the exchange bias field are calculated. For the coercive field, a rather broad enhancement around the Néel temperature TN of the antiferromagnetic layer is found irrespective of whethe...

Strong antiferromagnetic exchange between manganese phthalocyanine and ferromagnetic europium oxide.

We report on the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling between a submonolayer of Mn(II)-phthalocyanine molecules and a ferromagnetic Eu(II)-oxide thin film. The exchange energy is larger by nearly two orders of magnitude compared to previous studies involving oxidic substrates.

Antiferromagnetic ordering of itinerant systems in modified mean-field theory

This is an analysis of the itinerant model for antiferromagnetism, in which is included both on-site and inter-site electron correlations. We also consider the band degeneration, which brings into the Hamiltonian the on-site exchange interactions. The Green function technique is used and the coherent potential approximation (CPA) decoupling for the on-site Coulomb repulsion. This decoupling com...
