Abstract
Antiferromagnets generally have a quite high magnetic resonance, as known as the antiferromagnetic resonance, whose frequency goes up to the THz range. They are one of the few materials that can magnetically couple to THz electromagnetic waves and are therefore important materials for THz technologies. In this work, we demonstrate that the THz resonance properties, such as resonant frequency and the factor, of antiferromagnetic NiO can be controlled over a wide range by substituting the cation with various different cations. Our discussion extends to the trends of how different substitute cations , and impact the resonant properties, which suggests a guideline for designing antiferromagnetic THz materials.
