Magnetism in atomic Gd contacts: Noise and transport measurements — •Marcel Strohmeier, Martin Prestel, and Elke Scheer — Department of Physics, University of Konstanz, 78457 Konstanz, Germany

Materials with partially filled f shells bear interesting electronic and magnetic properties, wich have been intensively studied in bulk. Yet, on the atomic scale they are still a widely unexplored topic. For gadolinium (Gd) first transport measurements and theoretical calculations on the influence of f electrons on the electronic transport have been carried out [1]. To get a deeper insight into the magnetic ordering at the atomic scale we use the mechanically controllable break junction (MCBJ) technique at low temperatures to produce tunable atomic-size contacts. Here we present first measurements on magnetic transport behavior as well as shot noise measurements. Shot noise is known to reveal the exact channel configuration [2] and is even sensitive to spin polarization [3].
