Molecules are promising building blocks for future generations of functional materials. A particularly interesting niche are molecules that contain metal-ions in different oxidation states, since double exchange can contribute to the molecular magnetic properties in addition to conventional Heisenberg exchange. The most promising prospect coming from competition between these exchange...
Following the discovery of a quantum-limit magnetic Chern phase in TbMn$_6$Sn$_6$ [1], and the observation of a large topological Hall effect (THE) related to the field-induced magnetic phases in YMn$_6$Sn$_6$ [2], the magnetic topological metal series RMn$_6$Sn$_6$ (R=Gd-Yb, and Y, Lu etc.) [3], that possess an ideal kagome lattice of Mn, have emerged as a new platform to explore exotic...
The ac current-driven motion of spiral spin textures was shown to give rise to emergent electric fields that provide functionality as an electrical inductor - the so-called emergent inductance phenomenon [1-2]. Most recently, the first such system to display this phenomenon beyond room temperature was identified to be the helical magnet YMn6Sn6 [3]. To deepen the microscopic understanding of...
Multiferroic materials have been intensively studied these last decades for their interesting physics and their promising magnetoelectric applications [1]. Materials having a crystallographic chirality are particularly interesting in the sense that their structure couples to magnetism and can display novel magnetoelectric coupling. This is the case of MnSb$_2$O$_6$ which crystallizes in P...
