Probing the mechanism of thermoelectric enhancement in Kondo insulator YbB12 ...
We propose to study the evolution of the spectral features in the dynamical magnetic response in series Yb_{1-x}Tm_{x}B_{12} (x=0.15, 0.6, 0.8). Tm doping results in non-trivial... -
The relationship between the pseudogap and magnetic excitations in La2-xSrxCuO4
This proposal is part of an ongoing project to relate the magnetic excitations to other electronic properties of the cuprate superconductors. We have recently proposed that the... -
Electron-driven solvent segregation in Li-NH3-MeNH2
We request 4 days Rapid Access on MAPS to finalise the investigations in our recent experiment, RB1710214. This experiment on phase-separated metal-amine liquids proved to be... -
A search for transverse phonons in DNA
We have begun an experimental program to investigate the denaturing of DNA, using scattering techniques, to test statistical mechanical models for the moelcule. It is believed... -
Magnetic excitation in triangular latticce antiferromagnet alpha-CaCr2O4
The triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet is the classic example of the frustrated magnet, here the ground state forms a non-collinear 120° structure. A number of different... -
Spin-orbit coupling and spin dynamics in hexagonal iridate
Hexagonal iridate Na2IrO3 has recently been proposed as a candidate material to exhibit strong spin-orbit coupling effects which may stabilize a Mott insulating state with... -
Spin Waves in the Parent Compound of the Superconductor FeSexTe1-x (x=0)
The iron containing superconducting system FeSexTe1-x has a similar phase diagram to the cuprate superconductors, in that a non-superconducting antiferromagnetic parent compound...
