Title

The nature of the anisotropy in MnPS3

Abstract

MnPS3 is a quasi-2D collinear antiferromagnet a small magnetic anisotropy. A recent article has suggested that, if the anisotropy contained a Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya component, the k and -k magnons would have different dispersions. This would give the compound a spin-Nernst effect, making it of great interest to the graphene community. We have previously measured the spin waves of MnPS3 on IN3 and seen no such effect, but were limited by small signal and poor resolution. We now propose to perform more precise measurements on IN8 with better resolution to search for any possible differences in the magnons at the corners of the Brillouin zone.
