The relationship between superconductivity and the film preparation conditions, i.e., the thickness and annealing process, in electrodeposited rhenium (Re) films is studied in order to understand the effect of grain size and impurities on the film's

Inverse design methods are powerful computational approaches for creating colloidal systems which self-assemble into a target morphology by reverse engineering the Hamiltonian of the system. Despite this, these optimization procedures tend to yield

Recently it was discovered that van der Waals-bonded magnets retain long range magnetic ordering even down to a monolayer thickness, opening many avenues in fundamental physics and potential applications of these fascinating materials. One example is FePS3

We have performed pressure dependent X-ray diffraction and resonant X-ray emission spectroscopy experiments on USb 2 to further characterize the AFM-FM transition occuring near 8 GPa. We have found the magnetic transition coincides with a tetragonal to

We use inelastic neutron scattering measurements to show that the energy gap in the magnetic excitations of URu 2Si 2, induced by the Hidden Order transition, is closed by Re substitution. The magnetic excitations remain ungapped in compositions where the

We study the dynamics of domain walls (DWs) in a metallic, ferromagnetic nanowire. We develop a Keldysh collective coordinate technique to describe the effect of conduction electrons on rigid magnetic structures. The effective Lagrangian and Langevin

In this study, the inelastic neutron scattering (INS) probe of SIKA in ANSTO is employed to investigate the magnon dispersion curve in ferromagnetic SrRuO 3 single crystal epitaxial films and to better understand the underlying mechanisms. This report

The crystal structure of the new superconductor UTe 2 has been investigated for the first time at low temperature (LT) of 2.7 K, just closely above the superconducting transition of about 1.7 K by single crystal neutron diffraction, in order to prove

Time division multiplexing (TDM) uses a digital flux-locked loop (DFLL) to linearize each first-stage SQUID amplifier. Presently, the dynamic range of our TDM systems is limited by the use of a proportional-integral controller to maintain the DFLL. In this
We investigate protocols for optimal molecular detection with electromechanical nanoscale sensors in ambient conditions. Our models are representative of suspended graphene nanoribbons, which due to their piezoelectric and electronic properties, provide

Heusler compounds are exciting materials for future spintronics applications because they display a wide range of tunable electronic and magnetic interactions. Here, we use a femtosecond laser to directly transfer spin polarization from one element to
