Spin and angle resolved photoemission on non-magnetic low-dimensional systems

JH Dil - Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The electronic structure of non-magnetic low-dimensional materials can acquire a spin
structure due to the breaking of the inversion symmetry at the surface or interface. This so …

Intrinsic magnetism at silicon surfaces

SC Erwin, FJ Himpsel - Nature communications, 2010 - nature.com
It has been a long-standing goal to create magnetism in a non-magnetic material by
manipulating its structure at the nanoscale. Many structural defects have unpaired spins; an …

End states in one-dimensional atom chains
