Because H He does not contain spin terms, the spin part of the wavefunction only needs to satisfy the antisymmetric condition Excited state -> one electron occupies the 1s orbital (nlm=100); the second electron is in an excited state nlm 1) the spatial part of the wavefunction is symmetric and the spin part is antisymmetric S sym (r 1,r ) antisym (s 1,s ) [ 100 (r 1 ) nlm (r ) nlm (r 1) 100 (r )][ ] Singlet S=0 exci 1 ) the spatial part of the wavefunction is symmetric and the spin part is antisymmetric T 1 exci antisym (r 1,r ) sym (s 1,s ) [ 100 (r 1) nlm (r ) nlm (r 1) 100 (r )] sym (s 1,s ) ; sym (s 1,s ) ; ; ( ) Triplet S=1

7 The H molecule Ground state depends on the relative strength of J 1 (always > 0) in respect to -4l (I 1 +I +K 1 ) J 1 > 4l (I 1 +I +K 1 ) -> ground state is magnetic (triplet) J 1 < 4l (I 1 +I +K 1 ) -> ground state is non magnetic (singlet) Ex: H molecule -> singlet ground state The molecule magnetic ground state depends on the interaction between electrons belonging to two different atoms

9 Magnetic coupling between atoms: inter-atomic exchange Generalization to N-atoms system: Coulomb interaction + Pauli s principle The spins of the electrons are correlated i.e., there is a magnetic splitting in the energy spectrum of electrons in systems of atoms with open el. shells, true for systems of any size, doesn t tell what type of magnetic coupling The energy spectrum is represented by a model system of pairwise interacting spins H J S S i j ij i j correct to nd order in the overlap orbitals, cannot be proven rigorously Heisenberg model There are many possible exchange-interaction Hamiltonians H J z S S J S S S S z z x x y y i j i j i j ij ij Anisotropic Heisenberg model and XY model (J z =0) H J z i j SS z i z j Ising model

12 Weiss-Heisenberg model Which is the origin of the aligned atomic spin moments in a ferromagnetic domain (spontaneous magnetization)? Weiss -> molecular field H W (or mean field theory) of unknown origin Heisenberg -> molecular field originating from the interaction of the atomic spin moment with the spin sea of all the other atoms Ei sijijs j mih W; HW Jijs j g j B j Example: single spin s=1/ Two energy levels: +/- B H with an occupation probability given by exp(+/- B H/kT) x x e e BH M(H,T) M M Ng B( ) N x x x x Btanh(x); x e e e e k T B Sea of spin s=1/ x B(H M(T)) kt B M(T) -> molecular field Curie temperature: temperature at which the spontaneous magnetization (H=0) goes to zero M(T) ->0 when tanh(x) -> 0 when x-> 0 i.e. tanh(x) = x ( M(T )) N M(0) M(T ) N x N T B c B c B B C B kbtc kb kb The magnetization goes to zero when the thermal energy equals the energy of a single spin in the molecular field (H W =gs B M0

17 Spin resolved inverse photoemission - Monochromatic low-energy spin polarized electron beam is incident on a single crystal surface. -Upon entering the crystal the electron momentum in vacuum k and inside the crystal k need to match. - The incident electron (with E > E V ) occupies excited states and then decays in lower unoccupied bands with the emission of a photon (dipolar transition conserves momentum k and spin s) [Stö06] Energy conservation (assuming free electron like electrons) F =E V E F -> work function k m ' E V k m Momentum conservation (assuming free electron like electrons) G -> reciprocal space vector p e = (me) 1/ -> ~ for 1 ev electron p hv = E/c -> ~ for 1 ev photon k k G ' // // k (k ) me ' V First Brillouin zone G=0

19 Spin resolved inverse photoemission Electrons that are photoemitted from a sample by ultraviolet radiation are energy and angle selected by an electrostatic analyzer and detected in two orthogonal Mott polarimeters. In an electrostatic beam deflection system the spin direction is conserved and polarimeter I measures the polarization components Py and Pz, while polarimeter II measures Px and Pz. The beam is switched between the two in order to allow quasi-simultaneous data collection. In the figure, the polarimeter system is shown rotated by 90 for graphical clarity, i.e. in reality the z axis is directed straight to the left and parallel to the electron lens of the spectrometer J.

21 Bias exchange a) In an external field and above the Néel temperature T N, antiferromagnetic spins located at the interface with the ferromagnet are aligned, like the ferromagnet, with the external field. b) Once cooled below T N, these interface spins keep their orientation and appear "pinned" because they are tightly locked to the spin lattice in the bulk of the antiferromagnet, which is not sensitive to external fields. Consequently these pinned spins produce a constant magnetic field at the interface that causes the hysteresis loop of the ferromagnet to shift. H c c) This intuitive picture overestimates the magnitude of the loop shift by orders of magnitude.

22 Bias exchange: real case only a small fraction (5%) of interfacial spins is actually pinned, and these cause the horizontal hysteresis loop shifts. H. Ohldag et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 91, (003)
