We have investigated the magnetic ordering in the ultrathin c(10$times$2) CoO(111) film supported on Ir(100) on the basis of ab-initio calculations. We find a close relationship between the local structural properties of the oxide film and the induced magnetic order, leading to alternating ferromagnetically and anti-ferromagnetically ordered segments. While the local magnetic order is directly related to the geometric position of the Co atoms, the mismatch between the CoO film and the Ir substrate leads to a complex long-range order of the oxide.

In this study we investigate the structural and chemical changes of monatomic CoO$_2$ chains grown self-organized on the Ir(100) surface [P. Ferstl et al., PRL 117, 2016, 046101] and on Pt(100) under reducing and oxidizing conditions. By a combinatio
n of quantitative low-energy electron diffraction, scanning tunnelling microscopy, and density functional theory we show that the cobalt oxide wires are completely reduced by H$_2$ at temperatures above 320 K and a 3x1 ordered Ir$_2$Co or Pt$_2$Co surface alloy is formed. Depending on temperature the surface alloy on Ir(100) is either hydrogen covered (T < 400 K) or clean and eventually undergoes an irreversible order-disorder transition at about 570 K. The Pt$_2$Co surface alloy disorders with the desorption of hydrogen, whereby Co submerges into subsurface sites. Vice versa, applying stronger oxidants than O$_2$ such as NO$_2$ leads to the formation of CoO3 chains on Ir(100) in a 3x1 superstructure. On Pt(100) such a CoO$_3$ phase could not be prepared so far, which however, is due to the UHV conditions of our experiments. As revealed by theory this phase will become stable in a regime of higher pressure. In general, the structures can be reversibly switched on both surfaces using the respective agents O$_2$, NO$_2$ and H$_2$.
Two-dimensional (2D) chromium tellurides have attracted considerable research interest for their high Curie temperatures. Their magnetic properties have been found diverse in various experiments, the understanding of which however remains limited. In
this work, we report that the magnetic ordering of ultrathin chromium tellurides is structure dependent and can be tuned by external strain. Based on first-principles calculations and Monte Carlo simulations, we show long-range stable magnetism with high and low Curie temperature, and short-range magnetism in 2D Cr5Te8, CrTe2, and Cr2Te3 layers, respectively. We further find that ferromagnetic-to-antiferromagnetic transition can be realized by 2% compressive strain for CrTe2 and 2% tensile strain for Cr2Te3, and their magnetic easy axis is tuned from out-of-plane to in-plane by the medium tensile and compressive strain. This strain dependent magnetic coupling is found to be related to Cr-Cr direct exchange and the change of magnetic anisotropy is understood by the atom and orbital resolved magnetic anisotropy energy and second order perturbation theory. Our results reveal the important roles of the structure and strain in determining the magnetic ordering in 2D chromium telluride, shedding light on understanding of the diverse magnetic properties observed in experiments.
We show that using epitaxial strain and chemical pressure in orthorhombic YMnO3 and Co-substituted (YMn0.95Co0.05O3) thin films, a ferromagnetic response can be gradually introduced and tuned. These results, together with the measured anisotropy of t
he magnetic response, indicate that the unexpected observation of ferromagnetism in orthorhombic o-RMnO3 (R= Y, Ho, Tb, etc) films originates from strain-driven breaking of the fully compensated magnetic ordering by pushing magnetic moments away from the antiferromagnetic [010] axis. We show that the resulting canting angle and the subsequent ferromagnetic response, gradually increase (up to ~ 1.2degree) by compression of the unit cell. We will discuss the relevance of these findings, in connection to the magnetoelectric response of orthorhombic manganites.
The crystal structure of hexagonal-Sr0.6Ba0.4MnO3 allows various competing superexchange interactions, leading to intriguing magnetic properties. Local structural changes modify overlapping between Mn and oxygen ions with temperature. Calculations ba
sed on our model spin-Hamiltonian reveal that the dominant linear antiferromagnetic superexchange interaction between the oxygen-linked Mn4+ ions results in short range correlations (SRC), manifesting a smooth drop in magnetization below 325K. Dominance of superexchange interaction changes its allegiance towards the non-linear oxygen-linked Mn-O-Mn interactions, onsetting long-range correlations (LRC) below 225K. Below the SRC-LRC crossover temperature, electrical response arising from the interacting dipoles exhibits power-law divergent behaviour of relaxation time, upon cooling. Non-ergodic character of the dipole-cluster glass state is examined via the indispensable aging and rejuvenation effects, similar to the spin glasses. Competitive-frustration among spin-exchange and local-strain is reckoned as responsible for the electrical glass origin.
Spontaneous formation of grains has been observed for the MnAs layer grown by means of MBE on the GaN(0001)-(1x1) surface. Electronic structure of the system was investigated in situ by resonant photoemission spectroscopy. Density of the valence band
states of MnAs and its changes due to increase of the layer thickness were revealed.
