Magnetic structure and enhanced room-temperature multiferroicity in hexagonal...
The enhancement of magnetic characteristics of Lu1-xA������xFeO3 (A������ = Sr, Zr, La, Nd) will be investigated in this work. Although substitution effects, in this case, are... -
Magnetism and electronic structure of 3d 5d double perovskites
Emerging technologies require increasingly unusual functional materials and so understanding the origins of complex magnetic and electronic behaviour, and how these can be... -
Magnetic Phase Separation in a Frustrated Antiferromagnet
Frustrated magnetic materials are interesting because they show unusual behaviour arising from a near-degeneracy of ground states. The magnetic order of MgCr2O4 - apparently... -
New apparatus for neutron diffraction under uniaxial pressure.
We propose to test new apparatus for the magnetic neutron diffraction under uniaxial pressure on WISH diffractometer. The main feature of our apparatus is that the sample is not... -
