Noncollinear magnetic order, in-plane anisotropy, and magnetoelectric coupling in the pyroelectric honeycomb antiferromagnet Ni2Mo3 O8
©2023 American Physical Society. Ni2Mo3O8 is a pyroelectric honeycomb antiferromagnet exhibiting peculiar changes in its electric polarization at magnetic transitions. Ni2Mo3O8 stands out from isostructural magnetic compounds, showing an anomalously low magnetic transition temperature and unique magnetic anisotropy. We determine the magnetic structure of Ni2Mo3O8 utilizing high-resolution powder and single-crystal neutron diffraction. A noncollinear stripy antiferromagnetic order is found in the honeycomb planes. The magnetic space group is PCna21. The in-plane magnetic connection is of the stripy type for both the ab-plane and c-axis spin components. This is a simpler connection than the one proposed previously. The ferromagnetic interlayer order of the c-axis spin components in our model is also distinct. The magnetic anisotropy of Ni2Mo3O8 is characterized by orientation-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements on a single crystal, consistent with neutron diffraction analysis. The local magnetoelectric tensor analysis using our magnetic models provides insights into its magnetoelectric coupling and polarization. Thus, our results deliver essential information for understanding both the unusual magnetoelectric properties of Ni2Mo3O8 and the prospects for observing exotic nonreciprocal, Hall, and magnonic effects characteristic of this compound family. © 2023 authors.

REXS contribution to electronic ordering investigation in solids
Resonant Elastic X-Ray Scattering (REXS) has played a fundamental role in understanding electronic properties and in revealing hidden order, local symmetries and exotic states realized in correlated solids. This article reports on some of the relevant scientific contributions and technical advances over the last 20 years, by providing a list of related publications produced by various groups all around the world. The given perspective is that of a group of young scientists involved at various times in the investigation of the beauty of electronic ordering by the REXS technique. © 2012 EDP Sciences, Springer-Verlag
