Grant-in-Aid for Transformative Research Areas (A)
In chiral spin-ordered states, all mirror symmetries are broken, and a state and its mirror image cannot be overlapped by any spatial rotation or translation. Chiral magnets are an excellent platform to study cross-coupled ferroic orders, magnetic optical activity and topological transport properties. The central aim of this project is to identify and analyze the microscopic origin of magnetic chirality and multiferroicity in three classes of chiral magnets. The quantitative understanding will be the basis for the systematic design of new chiral magnets.
