Muon spin rotation/relaxation (μSR) is a highly sensitive technique for investigating magnetic properties on an atomic scale. With the continuous development of this technique, the researches in condensed matter physics have been significantly promoted. Firstly, this article introduces the advantages and uniqueness of μSR technique, followed by several recent progress contributed by μSR in the field of condensed matter physics, including revealing the magnetic ground state of superconducting nickelates La3Ni2O7 and (R,Sr)NiO2, the investigation into the charge density wave in kagome lattice superconductor AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb), identifying the magnetic droplets immersed in a sea of quantum spin liquid ground state in NaYbSe2, and the exploration of magnetic monopole near a magnetoelectric surface of Cr2O3. Finally, this article summarizes the current construction status and upgrade plans of muon facilities in the world.

图 2 (a) La3Ni2O7中的缪子不对称性参数谱在154 K以下出现了明显的振荡衰减[7]; (b) RbV3Sb5中缪子自旋弛豫率Γ在CDW转变温度T1*和T2*处明显增强, 表明出现该转变打破时间反演对称[11]; (c) 量子自旋液体“海洋”中沉浸的自旋磁滴[15]; (d) 磁电材料Cr2O3表面上的单个电荷将诱导出表面下的镜像磁单极子, 这一镜像磁单极子又能在表面之上产生理想的单极磁场[20]
Fig. 2. (a) Muon asymmetry spectrum in La3Ni2O7 shows clear oscillations and damping below T = 154 K[7]; (b) muon spin relaxation rates Γ, is strongly enhanced below T = T1* and T2*, suggesting the time reversal symmetry broken CDW in RbV3Sb5[11]; (c) magnetic droplets immersed in a sea of QSL[15]; (d) a single charge above the surface of magnetoelectric materials, Cr2O3, induces an image monopole beneath the surface, the image monopole then generates an ideal monopolar magnetic field above the surface[20].
