• Ferroelectricity in the multiferroic hexagonal manganites 

      Lilienblum, Martin; Lottermoser, Thomas; Manz, Sebastian; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Cano, Andres; Fiebig, Manfred (Journal article, 2015)
      Since their discovery in 1963 the hexagonal manganites have consolidated their role as exotic ferroelectrics with astonishing functionalities. Their introduction as room-temperature device ferroelectrics was followed by ...
    • Observation of the boson peak in a two-dimensional material 

      Tømterud, Martin; Eder, Sabrina Daniela; Büchner, Christin; Wondraczek, Lothar; Simonsen, Ingve; Schirmacher, Walter; Manson, Joseph R.; Holst, Bodil (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The boson peak is an excess in the phonon vibrational density of states relative to the Debye model. It has been observed in a wide range of amorphous materials, from inorganic glasses to polymers. Two-dimensional random ...
    • Superconducting spintronics 

      Linder, Jacob; Robinson, Jason W.A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Traditional studies that combine spintronics and superconductivity have mainly focused on the injection of spin-polarized quasiparticles into superconducting materials. However, a complete synergy between superconducting ...
    • Topological domain walls in helimagnets 

      Schoenherr, Peggy; Müller, Jan; Köhler, Laura; Rosch, Achim; Kanazawa, Naoya; Tokura, Yoshinori; Garst, Markus; Meier, Dennis (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Domain walls naturally arise whenever a symmetry is spontaneously broken. They interconnect regions with different realizations of the broken symmetry, promoting structure formation from cosmological length scales to the ...
