While the physical behavior of FIMs near the compensation point has been widely studied, there lacks a generic understanding of FIMs where the ratio of sublattice spins can vary continuously between the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic limits. PI-Cheng\u2019s group investigated a series of physical properties of two-sublattice FIMs driven by magnetic fields and current-induced torques. By varying the ratio of sublattice spins, PI-Cheng\u2019s group clarified how the dynamical chiral modes in a FIM are physically connected to their ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic counterparts, based on which unique features not visible near the compensation point are demonstrated. It is found that current-induced torques can trigger spontaneous oscillation of the terahertz exchange mode (<em>i.e.<\/em> mimicking a THz antiferromagnet). Compared with its realization in antiferromagnets, a spin-torque oscillator using FIMs not only has a reduced threshold current density but also can be self-stabilized, obviating the need for dynamic feedback.<\/p>\n<p>This article has been published in Physical Review B and is available <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.aps.org\/prb\/abstract\/10.1103\/PhysRevB.105.064410\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ferrimagnetic materials (FIMs) can function as high-frequency antiferromagnets while being easy to detect as ferromagnets, offering unique opportunities for ultrafast device applications.
