| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project aimed at testing experimentally for a new electromagnetic effect that was theoretically predicted in a magnetic metal showing order of “toroidal moment”, which corresponds to a vertex-like configuration of electron spins. We performed magnetization measurements under electric currents on a layered uranium compound, UNi4B, which was expected to be a realistic candidate for the theoretical prediction, and observed that uniform magnetization is induced in proportion to the strength of applied electric currents. The obtained experimental results have shown the essential validity of the theoretical prediction. However, we also found that there is an inconsistency between the theory and the experimental results regarding the current-direction dependence of magnetization, raising a new issue of reinvestigation of crystal and magnetic structure of this system. In addition to these, we found two new antiferromagnetic materials that show the similar electromagnetic effect.
