Large exchange bias from coupled antiferromagnetic order and glassy magnetic freezing in Co0.36NbS2

Abstract

Magnetization measurements on single-crystalline Co0.36NbS2 reveal antiferromagnetic order near TN ≃ 26 K and a lower-temperature history-dependent magnetic response consistent with glassy freezing of a subset of magnetic moments. After field cooling, M(H) loops exhibit a sizable exchange-bias shift, reaching |HEB| ≃ 4.4 kOe at $1.8 K$ for a $70 kOe$ field-cooling sweep protocol. The training effect, field-sweep and cooling-field protocol dependence, and disappearance of the bias near a blocking temperature TB ≃ 12 K, well below TN, support an interpretation in which frozen uncompensated moments are exchange-coupled to an antiferromagnetic matrix. These results suggest that antiferromagnetic-glassy-moment coupling may provide a broader route to exchange bias in off-stoichiometric magnetic NbS2 intercalates.

AB  - Magnetization measurements on single-crystalline Co_0.36NbS_2 reveal antiferromagnetic order near T_N ≃ 26 K and a lower-temperature history-dependent magnetic response consistent with glassy freezing of a subset of magnetic moments. After field cooling, M(H) loops exhibit a sizable exchange-bias shift, reaching |H_EB| ≃ 4.4 kOe at $1.8 K$ for a $70 kOe$ field-cooling sweep protocol. The training effect, field-sweep and cooling-field protocol dependence, and disappearance of the bias near a blocking temperature T_B ≃ 12 K, well below T_N, support an interpretation in which frozen uncompensated moments are exchange-coupled to an antiferromagnetic matrix. These results suggest that antiferromagnetic-glassy-moment coupling may provide a broader route to exchange bias in off-stoichiometric magnetic NbS_2 intercalates.
