Crystalline Mn5Ge3 nanomagnets are formed inside a Mn-diluted Ge matrix using Mn ion implantation. A temperature-dependent memory effect and slow magnetic relaxation are observed below the superparamagnetic blocking temperature of Mn5Ge3. Our findings corroborate that the observed spin-glass-like features are caused by the size distribution of Mn5Ge3 nanomagnets, rather than by the inter-particle interaction through the Mn-diluted Ge matrix.

In Mn$_3$X (X=Sn, Ge) antiferromagnets domain walls are thick and remarkably complex because of the non-collinear arrangement of spins in each domain. A planar Hall effect (PHE), an electric field perpendicular to the applied current but parallel to
the applied magnetic field, was recently observed inside the hysteresis loop of Mn$_3$Sn. The sign of the PHE displayed a memory tuned by the prior orientation of the magnetic field and its history. We present a study of PHE in Mn$_3$Ge extended from room temperature down to 2 K and show that this memory effect can be manipulated by either magnetic field or thermal cycling. We show that the memory can be wiped out if the prior magnetic field exceeds 0.8 T or when the temperature exceeds $T_mathrm{N}$. We also find a detectable difference between the amplitude of PHE with zero-field and field thermal cycling. The ratio between the PHE and the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) decreases slightly as temperature is increased from 2 K to $T_{rm{N}}$, tracks the temperature dependence of magnetization. This erasable memory effect may be used for data storage.
Taking the non-collinear antiferromagnetic hexagonal Heusler compound Mn$_3$Ge as a reference system, the contributions to linear response phenomena arising solely from the chiral coplanar and non-coplanar spin configurations are investigated. Orbita
l moments, X-ray absorption, anomalous and spin Hall effects, as well as corresponding spin-orbit torques and Edelstein polarizations are studied depending on a continuous variation of the polar angle relative to the Kagome planes of corner-sharing triangles between the non-collinear antiferromagnetic and the ferromagnetic limits. By scaling the speed of light from the relativistic Dirac case to the non-relativistic limit the chirality-induced or topological contributions can be identified by suppressing the spin-orbit coupling.
We have used spherical neutron polarimetry to investigate the magnetic structure of the Mn spins in the hexagonal semimetal Mn$_3$Ge, which exhibits a large intrinsic anomalous Hall effect. Our analysis of the polarimetric data finds a strong prefere
nce for a spin structure with $E_{1g}$ symmetry relative to the $D_{6h}$ point group. We show that weak ferromagnetism is an inevitable consequence of the symmetry of the observed magnetic structure, and that sixth order anisotropy is needed to select a unique ground state.
The discovery of topological quantum materials represents a striking innovation in modern condensed matter physics with remarkable fundamental and technological implications. Their classification has been recently extended to topological Weyl semimet
als, i.e., solid state systems which exhibit the elusive Weyl fermions as low-energy excitations. Here we show that the Nernst effect can be exploited as a sensitive probe for determining key parameters of the Weyl physics, applying it to the non-collinear antiferromagnet Mn$_3$Ge. This compound exhibits anomalous thermoelectric transport due to enhanced Berry curvature from Weyl points located extremely close to the Fermi level. We establish from our data a direct measure of the Berry curvature at the Fermi level and, using a minimal model of a Weyl semimetal, extract for the first time the Weyl point energy and their distance in momentum-space.
A series of first principles calculations have been carried out in order to discuss electronic structure, phonon dynamics, structural instabilities and the nature of martensitic transformations of the Heusler alloys Ni$_2$Mn(Ga, Ge, Al) and Co$_2$Mn(
Ga, Ge). The calculations show that besides electronic pecularities like Fermi--surface nesting, hybridizing optical and acoustic phonon modes are important for the stabilization of the modulated martensitic structures.
