"Quantum spins and hybridization in artificially-constructed chains of magnetic adatoms on superconducting 2H-NbSe_2”
Résumé :
Magnetic adatom chains on superconducting substrates are promising platforms for topological superconductivity and Majorana zero modes. Signatures of these have been found in densely packed chains with direct exchange interaction among the adatoms. In contrast, the dilute limit of chains, where the atoms are sufficiently far spaced that direct hybridization of their d orbitals is negligible, but close enough for substrate-mediated interactions, has not been investigated previously. Engineering dilute adatom chains with substantial substrate-mediated interactions requires samples sustaining long-range Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states. While these decay
quickly with 1/ 𝑘 𝑟 (with 𝑘 being the Fermi wave vector and 𝑟 the distance to the impurity) on three-dimensional superconductors, the decay of YSR states on two-dimensional superconductors is much slower, scaling with 1/√ 𝑘 𝑟 [1].
Here, we explore the well known quasi-two-dimensional superconductor 2H-NbSe 2 as a substrate for magnetic adatom structures. Individual Fe atoms induce Yu-Shiba-Rusinov states, which spatially extend over several nanometers with their energy and symmetry influenced by the crystal field and by the co-existing charge-density wave (CDW) [2]. When two Fe atoms are placed on equivalent adsorption sites at a distance of 1 nm, the YSR states are shifted in energy and split. While the splitting indicates hybridization of the YSR states, the strong shift can only be explained by RKKY coupling of quantum spins [3]. We deliberately increase the chain length by adding individual Fe atoms with the STM tip, up to a length of 51 atoms. In each step we track the evolution of the YSR states. We find signatures of YSR band formation consistent with ferromagnetic coupling of quantum spins [4].

"Proximity effects in van der Waals heterostructures”
Résumé :
The isolation of a large variety of two-dimensional materials (2DM) and their co-integration in van der Waals heterostructures has opened new avenues for innovative material design and engineering. In particular, the structural interface quality in the atomically smooth 2DMs allows us to imprint properties of interest in a chosen 2DM by proximity-induced effects. Such an approach is particularly compelling for spintronic devices, which harness their functionality from thin layers of magnetic and non-magnetic materials and their interfaces [1]. In this talk, I will present recent experiments in which we investigate the spin dynamics in graphene-transition metal dichalcogenides heterostructures. I will show that the spin-orbit coupling in graphene can be strongly enhanced by proximity effects. As a consequence, the spin relaxation becomes highly anisotropic, with spin lifetimes that are markedly different depending on the spin orientation [2,3]. I will further demonstrate that the proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling leads to strongly enhanced spin-to-charge interconversion [4]. By performing spin precession experiments in appropriately designed Hall bars, we are able to separate the contributions of the spin Hall and the spin galvanic effects. Remarkably, their corresponding conversion efficiencies can be tailored by electrostatic gating in magnitude and sign, peaking near the graphene charge neutrality point and having a large magnitude even at room temperature.

Le prochain séminaire virtuel du GDR HOWDI aura lieu le mardi 9 novembre 2021 à 14h.
Nous recevrons Vincent Renard (Grenoble, France)
"Heterostrain determines the flatbands in twisted gaphene layers.”
Résumé :
The strongly correlated electron physics recently observed in twisted graphene layers develops in flat bands , which are very sensitive to the relative arrangement between the layers. The twist angle as attracted most of the attention as it is the leading structural parameter. Heterostrain, the in-plane deformation of one layer with respect to the other, is an ubiquitous source of modification of the relative arrangement between the layers which effect has been much less investigated. Performing a detailed meta-analysis of published scanning tunneling microscope data, I will show that heterostrain allows to understand quantitatively the large sample variability observed in experiments in the non interacting limit and raises the question of its influence on strongly correlated electron phases.

The next virtual meeting of the GDR HOWDI will be given by Preden Rouleau (CEA) next Tuesday (July 20) at 11h.
"Unveiling excitonic properties of magnons in a quantum Hall ferromagnet."

Abstract of the talk :
Magnons enable transferring a magnetic moment or spin over macroscopic distance. In quantum Hall ferromagnets, it has been predicted in the early 90s [1] that spin and charge are entangled, meaning that any change of the spin texture modifies the charge distribution. As a direct consequence of this entanglement, magnons carry an electric dipole moment. Here we report the first evidence of the existence of this electric dipole moment in a graphene quantum Hall ferromagnet [2,3] using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer as a quantum sensor. As magnons propagate towards the interferometer across the insulating bulk, their electric dipole moment modifies the Aharonov-Bohm flux through the interferometer, affecting both the phase and visibility of the interferences. In particular, we relate the phase shift to the sign of this electric dipole moment, the exponential loss of visibility to the flux of emitted magnons, and we show that the magnon emission is a Poissonian process. Finally, we probe the emission energy threshold of the magnons close to filling factor ν=1. For transient states, between ν=0 and ν=1, we observe that the emission energy threshold diminishes towards zero, which might be linked to the emergence of gapless mode predicted in the canted-antiferromagnetic (CAF) phase at ν=0 [4-5]. Being able to couple the spin degree of freedom to an electrostatic potential is a remarkable property of quantum Hall ferromagnets that could be very promising for spintronics.
