Effect of hydrogen adsorption on the extraordinary Hall phenomenon (EHE) in ferromagnetic CoPd films is studied as a function of composition, thickness, substrate and hydrogen concentration in atmosphere. Adsorption of hydrogen adds a positive term in the extraordinary Hall effect coefficient and modifies the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with the respective changes in coercivity and remanence of hysteresis loops. Hydrogen sensitive compositions are within the Co concentration range 20% < x < 50% with the strongest response near the EHE polarity reversal point x_0 ~ 38%. Depending on the film composition and field of operation the EHE response of CoPd to low concentration hydrogen can reach hundreds percent, which makes the method and the material attractive for hydrogen sensing.

Heusler compounds having $textit{D}$${}_{2d}$ crystal symmetry gained much attention recently due to the stabilization of a vortex-like spin texture called antiskyrmions in thin lamellae of Mn${}_{1.4}$Pt${}_{0.9}$Pd${}_{0.1}$Sn as reported in the wo rk of Nayak $textit{et al.}$ [Nature (London) 548, 561 (2017)]. Here we show that bulk Mn${}_{1.4}$Pt${}_{0.9}$Pd${}_{0.1}$Sn undergoes a spin-reorientation transition from a collinear ferromagnetic to a noncollinear configuration of Mn moments below 135 K, which is accompanied by the emergence of a topological Hall effect. We tune the topological Hall effect in Pd and Rh substituted Mn${}_{1.4}$PtSn Heusler compounds by changing the intrinsic magnetic properties and spin textures. A unique feature of the present system is the observation of a zero-field topological Hall resistivity with a sign change which indicates the robust formation of antiskyrmions.
The intrinsic orbital Hall effect (OHE), the orbital counterpart of the spin Hall effect, was predicted and studied theoretically for more than one decade, yet to be observed in experiments. Here we propose a strategy to convert the orbital current i n OHE to the spin current via the spin-orbit coupling from the contact. Furthermore, we find that OHE can induce large nonreciprocal magnetoresistance when employing magnetic contact. Both the generated spin current and the orbital Hall magnetoresistance can be applied to probe the OHE in experiments and design orbitronic devices.

Hydrogen can penetrate reversibly a number of metals, occupy the interstitial sites and cause large expansion of the crystal lattice. The question discussed here is whether the kinetics of the structural response matches hydrogen absorption. We show that thin Pd and CoPd films exposed to a relatively rich hydrogen atmosphere (4% H2) inflate irreversibly, demonstrate the controllable shape memory, and duration of the process can be orders of magnitude longer than hydrogen absorption. The dynamics of the out-of-equilibrium plastic creep is well described by the Avrami - type model of the nucleation and lateral domain wall expansion of the swelled sites.

Manipulation of magnetic ground states by effective control of competing magnetic interactions has led to the finding of many exotic magnetic states. In this direction, the tetragonal Heusler compounds consisting of multiple magnetic sublattices and crystal symmetry favoring chiral Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) provide an ideal base to realize non-trivial magnetic structures. Here, we present the observation of a large robust topological Hall effect (THE) in the multi-sublattice Mn$_{2-x}$PtIn Heusler magnets. The topological Hall resistivity, which originates from the non-vanishing real space Berry curvature in the presence of non-zero scalar spin chirality, systematically decreases with decreasing the magnitude of the canting angle of the magnetic moments at different sublattices. With help of first principle calculations, magnetic and neutron diffraction measurements, we establish that the presence of a tunable non-coplanar magnetic structure arising from the competing Heisenberg exchanges and chiral DMI from the D$_{2d}$ symmetry structure is responsible for the observed THE. The robustness of the THE with respect to the degree of non-collinearity adds up a new degree of freedom for designing THE based spintronic devices.
The spin Hall effect and its inverse are important spin-charge conversion mechanisms. The direct spin Hall effect induces a surface spin accumulation from a transverse charge current due to spin orbit coupling even in non-magnetic conductors. However , most detection schemes involve additional interfaces, leading to large scattering in reported data. Here we perform interface free x-ray spectroscopy measurements at the Cu L_{3,2} absorption edges of highly Bi-doped Cu (Cu_{95}Bi_{5}). The detected X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) signal corresponds to an induced magnetic moment of (2.7 +/- 0.5) x 10-12 {mu}_{B} A^{-1} cm^{2} per Cu atom averaged over the probing depth, which is of the same order as for Pt measured by magneto-optics. The results highlight the importance of interface free measurements to assess material parameters and the potential of CuBi for spin-charge conversion applications.
