The magnetic behavior of truncated conical nanoparticles in patterned thin films is investigated as a function of their size and shape. Using a scaling technique, phase diagrams giving the relative stability of characteristic internal magnetic structures of the particles are obtained. The role of the uniaxial anisotropy in determining the magnetic properties of such systems is discussed, and a simple method for stablishing its strength is proposed.

The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), being one of the origins for chiral magnetism, is currently attracting huge attention in the research community focusing on applied magnetism and spintronics. For future applications an accurate measuremen
t of its strength is indispensable. In this work, we present a review of the state of the art of measuring the coefficient $D$ of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, the DMI constant, focusing on systems where the interaction arises from the interface between two materials. The measurement techniques are divided into three categories: a) domain wall based measurements, b) spin wave based measurements and c) spin orbit torque based measurements. We give an overview of the experimental techniques as well as their theoretical background and models for the quantification of the DMI constant $D$. We analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each method and compare $D$ values in different stacks. The review aims to obtain a better understanding of the applicability of the different techniques to different stacks and of the origin of apparent disagreement of literature values.
We have performed magnetotransport measurements in CeTe$_{3}$ thin films down to $0.2~{rm K}$. It is known that CeTe$_{3}$ has two magnetic transitions at $T_{rm N1} approx 3~{rm K}$ and $T_{rm N2} approx 1~{rm K}$. A clear Shubnikov-de-Haas (SdH) os
cillation was observed at $4~{rm K}$, demonstrating the strong two-dimensional nature in this material. Below $T_{rm N2}$, the SdH oscillation has two frequencies, indicating that the Fermi surface could be slightly modulated due to the second magnetic transition. We also observed a magnetic hysteresis in the SdH oscillation below $T_{rm N1}$. Especially, there is a unique spike in the magnetoresistance at $B approx 0.6~{rm T}$ only when the magnetic field is swept from a high enough field (more than $2~{rm T}$) to zero field.
A novel approach to control the grain size of oxide thin film materials has been investigated. Perovskite BaTiO3 shows interesting grain structures when deposited on gold predeposited, (111)-oriented, singlecrystal SrTiO3 substrates. Solid oxide film
s grow epitaxially on patterned seed layers and show variations in grain size relative to the films deposited on SrTiO3 directly.
Magnetic insulators (MIs) attract tremendous interest for spintronic applications due to low Gilbert damping and absence of Ohmic loss. Magnetic order of MIs can be manipulated and even switched by spin-orbit torques (SOTs) generated through spin Hal
l effect and Rashba-Edelstein effect in heavy metal/MI bilayers. SOTs on MIs are more intriguing than magnetic metals since SOTs cannot be transferred to MIs through direct injection of electron spins. Understanding of SOTs on MIs remains elusive, especially how SOTs scale with the film thickness. Here, we observe the critical role of dimensionality on the SOT efficiency by systematically studying the MI layer thickness dependent SOT efficiency in tungsten/thulium iron garnet (W/TmIG) bilayers. We first show that the TmIG thin film evolves from two-dimensional to three-dimensional magnetic phase transitions as the thickness increases, due to the suppression of long-wavelength thermal fluctuation. Then, we report the significant enhancement of the measured SOT efficiency as the thickness increases. We attribute this effect to the increase of the magnetic moment density in concert with the suppression of thermal fluctuations. At last, we demonstrate the current-induced SOT switching in the W/TmIG bilayers with a TmIG thickness up to 15 nm. The switching current density is comparable with those of heavy metal/ferromagnetic metal cases. Our findings shed light on the understanding of SOTs in MIs, which is important for the future development of ultrathin MI-based low-power spintronics.
Investigations of the complex behavior of the magnetization of manganese arsenide thin films due to defects induced by irradiation of slow heavy ions are presented. In addition to the thermal hysteresis suppression already highlighted in M. Trassinel
li et al., Appl. Phys. Lett. 104, 081906 (2014), we report here on new local magnetic features recorded by a magnetic force microscope at different temperatures close to the characteristic sample phase transition. Complementary measurements of the global magnetization measurements in different conditions (applied magnetic field and temperatures) enable to complete the film characterization. The obtained results suggest that the ion bombardment produces regions where the local mechanical constraints are significantly different from the average, promoting the local presence of magneto-structural phases far from the equilibrium. These regions could be responsible for the thermal hysteresis suppression previously reported, irradiation-induced defects acting as seeds in the phase transition.
