Magnetic structure of Mn3Ga thin film by unpolarised neutron with D10 and spherical polarimetry with D3
Hexagonal Mn3Ga thin film are promising for antiferromagnetic spintronics. The determination of its magnetic structure is important for the fundamental understanding as well as for device application. However, the study of Mn3Ga is hampered by the lack of single crystal and high-quality thin film. Recently we achieved high quality epitaxial growth of Mn3Ga on semiconductor substrate. We propose to study the crystal and magnetic structure by a combined unpolarised neutron diffraction and spherical neutron polarimetry. D10+ will be employed for verifying previous neutron powder diffraction. Spherical neutron polarimetry with D3 will be carried out for a unique magnetic structure determination, out of the four symmetry allowed candidate structures.
