We report a 51V nuclear magnetic resonance investigation of the frustrated spin-1/2 chain compound LiCuVO4, performed in pulsed magnetic fields and focused on high-field phases up to 56 T. For the crystal orientations H∥c and H∥b, we find [...]

Antiferromagnets (AFMs) have attracted increasing attention in state-of-the-art research. Their important role in enhancing the hardness of ferromagnetic electrodes through the exchange-bias effect in microelectronics, has been broadly extended by new perspectives in spintronic applications. AFMs also facilitate current-induced [...]

Peter Christianen, HFML Nijmegen Single-layer transition-metal dichalcogenides, such as MoS2, MoSe2, WS2, WSe2, are two-dimensional semiconductors with a honeycomb lattice. Their band structures show a pair of inequivalent valleys (local extrema) at the +K and -K points of [...]
