Description:
Author(s): Haowen Wang, Wei Wang, Ni Hu, Tianci Duan, Songliu Yuan, Shuai Dong, Chengliang Lu, and Jun-Ming Liu Spintronics based on antiferromagnets (rather than ferromagnets) continues to garner intense interest, as antiferromagnets offer no stray fields and ultrafast spin dynamics. However, there is a significant performance gap between antiferromagnetic (AFM) insulators and metals. This study reports the remarkable electronic properties of a series of AFM doped iridates—findings that close the aforementioned performance gap, and furthermore unveil the physics of the coupling between magnetic and charge degrees of freedom in this family of transition-metal oxides.
