  1. Topological magnetism typically appears in noncentrosymmetric compounds or compounds with geometric frustration. Here, we report the effective tuning of magnetism in centrosymmetric tetragonal Mn2−xZnxSb by Zn substitution. The magnetism is found to be closely coupled to the transport properties, giving rise to a very large topological Hall effect with fine-tuning of Zn content, which even persists to high temperature (∼250K). The further magnetoentropic analysis suggests that the topological Hall effect is possibly associated with topological magnetism. Our finding suggests Mn2−xZnxSb is a candidate material for a centrosymmetric tetragonal topological magnetic system, offering opportunities for studying and tuning spin textures and developing near room temperature spin-based devices.

  2. We have investigated the magnetic structure of Li2Co(WO4)2 via magnetic susceptibility, and neutron diffraction measurements. Two magnetic transitions are observed in magnetic susceptibility at TN1∼9.5K and TN2∼7.2K. Neutron diffraction reveals an incommensurate magnetic order with a wave vector kICM=(∼0.46,∼0.27,∼0.24) between TN1 and TN2 and a commensurate magnetic order with a wave vector kCM=(0.5,0.25,0.25) below TN2. The magnetic periodicity in the commensurate phase is four times larger than the nuclear unit cell length along the b- and c-axis directions with a saturated magnetic moment equal to ≈2.92μB. Below TN1, the ICM wave vector for Li2Co(WO4)2 varies with decreasing temperature and locked into commensurate at TN2, whereas weaker temperature dependence of kICM=(0.46,0.17,0.33) is observed for Li2Ni(WO4)2.
