Herein, we discuss the identification of vanadium trimers in layered LiVO2 and its sulfide analog of LiVS2 with two-dimensional triangular lattices. Our comprehensive structural studies using synchrotron X-ray diffraction experiments clarified that vanadium trimers are randomly aligned along the c-axis direction in LiVO2, while the long-range ordering of vanadium trimers along the c-axis direction appears in LiVS2. Our results solve the longstanding issue of cluster patterns in LiVO2 and provide an experimental basis for identifying the mechanism of trimer formation.

The nature of the magnetic order in (La2/3Sr1/3MnO3)9/(LaNiO3)3 superlattices is investigated using x-ray resonant magnetic reflectometry. We observe a new c-axis magnetic helix state in the (LaNiO3)3 layers that had never been reported in nickelates , and which mediates the ~130deg magnetic coupling between the ferromagnetic (La2/3Sr1/3MnO3)9 layers, illustrating the power of x-rays for discovering the magnetic state of complex oxide interfaces. Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering and x-ray absorption spectroscopy show that Ni-O ligand hole states from bulk LaNiO3 are mostly filled due to interfacial electron transfer from Mn, driving the Ni orbitals closer to an atomic-like 3d8 configuration. We discuss the constraints imposed by this electronic configuration to the microscopic origin of the observed magnetic structure. The presence of a magnetic helix in (La2/3Sr1/3MnO3)9/(LaNiO3)3 is crucial for modeling the potential spintronic functionality of this system and may be important for designing emergent magnetism in novel devices in general.
Intriguing properties of the misfit layered chalcogenide (LaS)$_{1.196}$VS$_2$ crystals were investigated by transport, optical measurements, angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) and x-ray diffraction. Although no clear anomaly is found in transport properties as a function of temperature, a large spectral weight transfer, up to at least 1 eV, is observed by both optical and photoemission spectroscopies. ARPES reveals that a nearly filled band with negative curvature, close enough from the Fermi level at 300K to produce metallic-like behaviour as observed in optical conductivity spectra. At low temperature, the band structure is strongly modified, yielding to an insulating state with a optical gap of 120 meV. An accurate (3+1)D analysis of x-ray diffraction data shows that, although a phase transition does not occur, structural distortions increase as temperature is decreased, and vanadium clusterization is enhanced. We found that the changes of electronic properties and structure are intimately related. This indicates that structural distorsion play a major role in the insulating nature of (LaS)$_{1.196}$VS$_2$ and that electronic correlation may not be important, contrary to previous belief. These results shed a new light on the mechanism at the origin of non-linear electric properties observed in (LaS)$_{1.196}$VS$_2$.

The quasi two-dimensional magnetic BaNi$_{2}$V$_{2}$O$_{8}$ is studied by using high-resolution thermal expansion in magnetic fields up to 10 T applied along the c-axis. A slight increase of about 1 % of the three-dimensional antiferromagnetic orderi ng temperature $T_N$ is observed at 10 T. Positive and negative pressure dependencies of $T_N$, respectively, are inferred from the thermal expansion $alpha(T)$ for pressures applied along the $a$- and $c$-axes.

By performing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the bilayer colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganite, $La_{2-2x}Sr_{1+2x}Mn_{2}O_{7}$, we provide the complete mapping of the Fermi level spectral weight topology. Clear and unambiguous bila yer splitting of the in-plane 3d$_{x^2-y^2}$ band, mapped throughout the Brillouin zone, and the full mapping of the 3d$_{3z^2-r^2}$ band are reported. Peculiar doping and temperature dependencies of these bands imply that as transition from the ferromagnetic metallic phase approaches, either as a function of doping or temperature, coherence along the c-axis between planes within the bilayer is lost, resulting in reduced interplane coupling. These results suggest that interplane coupling plays a large role in the CMR transition.
We have studied the magnetization and magnetoresistance of CeRu2Al10 in the applied magnetic field H along the c-axis up to ~ 55 T. The magnetization M at low temperatures shows an H-linear increase with a small slope of M/H than that for H // a-axis up to ~ 55 T after showing a small anomaly at H ~ 4 T, which indicates that the critical field to the paramagnetic phase H_c^p is higher than 55 T for H // c-axis. The magnetization curves for H // a- and c-axes below the antiferro magnetic (AFM) transition temperature T0 behave as if the magnetic anisotropy in the AFM-ordered phase is small, although there exists a large magnetic anisotropy in the paramagnetic phase, which favors the easy magnetization axis along the a-axis. On the other hand, very recently, Khalyavin et al. have reported that the AFM order where the magnetic moment is parallel to the c-axis takes place below T0. These results indicate that the AFM order in this compound is not a simple one. The longitudinal magnetoresistance for H // c-axis at low temperatures shows no anomaly originating from the phase transition, but shows oscillations below 4.2 K. This oscillatory behavior below 4.2 K originates from the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, from which the cross section of the Fermi surface normal to the c-axis is estimated to be 1.0*10^14 cm-2, with no large effective mass. This is the first direct evidence of the existence of the Fermi surface below T0.
