Enhancement of domain-wall mobility detected by NMR at the angular momentum compensation temperature

The angular momentum compensation temperature $T_{\mathrm{A}}$ of ferrimagnets has attracted much attention because of high-speed magnetic dynamics near $T_{\rm A}$\mathrm{.}WeshowthatNMRcanbeusedtoinvestigatedomainwalldynamicsnear$T_{\rm A}$inferrimagnets\mathrm{.}Weperformed$^{57}$Fe-NMR measurements on the ferrimagnet Ho${}_3$Fe${}_5$O${}_{12}$ with $T_{\mathrm{A}}=245$ K. In a multi-domain state, the NMR signal is enhanced by domain wall motion. We found that the NMR signal enhancement shows a maximum at $T_{\mathrm{A}}$ in the multi-domain state. The NMR signal enhancement occurs due to increasing domain-wall mobility toward $T_{\mathrm{A}}$. We develop the NMR signal enhancement model involves domain-wall mobility. Our study shows that NMR in multi-domain state is a powerful tool to determine $T_{\mathrm{A}}$, even from a powder sample and it expands the possibility of searching for angular momentum-compensated materials.
