High-entropy alloys offer better control over the properties of magnetic storage materials, allowing for a wider range of magnetic configurations. In this study, a five-membered magnetic alloy was created using powder metallurgy. It was revealed that both FeCrCoSiGe and FeMnCoSiGe alloys are dual-phase high-entropy alloys consisting of B20 CoGe- and FeSi-based phases. The study also demonstrated an interesting “kink” feature observed in the temperature-dependent magnetization of FeCrMnSiGe that suggests a potential association with helimagnetism. The helimagnetism is from the intrinsic helical ferromagnetism in the CoGe matrix phase and varies with the magnetic interactions due to the doped atoms. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent magnetization showed that replacing chromium (Cr) with cobalt (Co) could potentially reduce the magnetization transition to approximately 60 K. A complete substitution of chromium with manganese (Mn) could also alter the magnetic transition behavior. FeCrMnSiGe, FeCrCoSiGe, and FeMnCoSiGe were identified as soft magnets based on their field-dependent magnetization. The magnetic properties could be adjusted by modifying the composition and lattice distortion of the alloy. This study has the potential to aid in the development of a new material system with an adjustable chiral magnetic structure for spintronic memory devices.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism","volume":"36 7-9","pages":"1673 - 1682"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41086685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The observations illustrate that there exists a structural distortion around 3d TM impurities with regard to the pure InPNT. Furthermore, the observations revealed that the total magnetic moment changes are in good agreement with Hund’s rule. In addition, the Mn-doped InPNT has a maximum magnetic moment. The calculations exhibited that the InP nanotube is semiconductor in nature with a direct band gap of 1.46?eV. Also, the simulation results illustrated that when 3d TM impurities, except Cu, are replaced with In atom in InPNT, impurity doping leads to the magnetic form of the nanotube. Cu-doped InPNT is a non-magnetic metal whereas, Ni and Fe-doped InPNTs are ferromagnetic metals. The V-doped InPNT is also a magnetic semiconductor according to simulation data.

In this report, we investigate the motion of a skyrmionium driven by a current on a racetrack containing an engineered cylindrical defect. Our model demonstrates three possible outcomes of the interaction between the skyrmionium and the defect, depending on the applied current density: pinning, transformation, and transmission. Pinning takes place when the driving force generated by the current is inadequate to counteract the repulsive force at the defect boundary, causing the skyrmionium to become entrapped. Transformation happens inside the defect, where the skyrmionium might convert into a skyrmion due to the higher effective field resulting from the change in film thickness. Transmission takes place when the force exerted by the applied current significantly exceeds the repulsive force at the defect boundary, leading to minimal impact on the skyrmionium motion. These results offer significant understanding of skyrmionium behavior when interacting with engineered defects and present potential implications for the development of novel skyrmionic devices.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":669,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism","volume":"36 6","pages":"1533 - 1539"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2023-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4548462","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
