Abstract:
We describe measurements of the uniaxial magnetic anisotropy and spin-flop rotation of the Néel vector in antiferromagnetic CuMnAs thin films using neutron diffraction. The suppression of the magnetic (100) peak under magnetic fields is observed for films as thin as 20 nm, indicating that they undergo a spin-flop transition. Good agreement is found between neutron diffraction and electrical transport measurements of the spin-flop rotation in the same layer with similar shape and hysteresis of the obtained curves, while the neutron measurements provide a quantitative determination of the spin flop extending throughout the antiferromagnet layer.
