Half-magnetization plateau and the origin of threefold symmetry breaking in an electrically switchable triangular antiferromagnet
We perform high-field magnetization measurements on the triangular lattice antiferromagnet Fe_{1/3}NbS_{2}. We observe a plateau in the magnetization centered at approximately half the saturation magnetization over a wide range of temperature and magnetic field. From density functional theory calcul...
