Magnetic structure of Mn3Ga thin film by unpolarized neutron diffraction

Abstract: Hexagonal Mn3Ga thin film are promising for antiferromagnetic spintronics. The determination of its magnetic structure is important for the fundamental understanding as well as for device application. However, the study of Mn3Ga is hampered by the lack of single crystal and high-quality thin film. Recently we achieved high quality epitaxial growth of Mn3Ga on semiconductor substrate. We propose to study the crystal and magnetic structure by unpolarised neutron diffraction. WISH will be employed for verifying previous neutron powder diffraction.
